You mean the little details like the very real reality that the Democrats would
rather use the actions of very few people to stir up even further, the division
between the Republicans and the Democrats.
The Democrats are experts at using any small thing like this to divert away
from what they don't want to talk about.  Right now the Democrats do not want
to talk about:

    * They don't want to have to defend the revelation that Obama and his
family will not be subject to the restrictions, requirements and penalties of
ObamaCare.

    * They don't want to have to explain how an insurance company can charge
lower premiums when its healthier policy holders take a hike and they're forced
to insure people who are already sick.

    * They don't want a discussion on how our children and grandchildren are
going to pay off the massive debt they will have to overcome courtesy of
ObamaCare.

    * They don't want to have to defend the gimmicks they used to force the
Congressional Budget Office to falsely report that ObamaCare would reduce the
deficit.

    * They don't want to discuss the logic fining a young person 2.2% of their
income if they refuse to buy an insurance policy they think they won't need
that would cost them 10% of their income.

    * They don't want to have to explain just why ObamaCare will not follow the
path of Medicare and the prescription drug benefit ... the path to actual costs
over and above projected costs by a factor of 10 or more.

    * They don't want to discuss Fidel Castro's glowing endorsement of
ObamaCare yesterday.

    * They don't want to discuss just why Democrats absolutely refused to
consider simple and easily enforced private sector options, such as allowing
insurance companies to sell their policies across state lines, before moving
toward healthcare nationalization.

    * They don't want to explain just where in the Constitution they found that
nifty little clause that gives the government the authority to use its police
power to force a free American citizen to enter into a contract to purchase
something from a private company against their will.

    * They don't want to have to explain why Caterpillar has already announced
that as many as 1000 workers will lose their jobs after the passage of
ObamaCare.
