President Barack Obama got testy and reportedly snapped at two Democrats during a Wednesday meeting on Capitol Hill.
Rep. Sean Maloney (D-NY) asked Obama about a loan guarantee application from a company in his district that has been "stuck in the final approval stages." According to CNN, "one Democratic source in the room said Maloney began his question by recognizing it was an issue that may be better discussed on the staff level, rather than with the president."
In a "rude and dismissive" manner, Obama reportedly answered, "You're right. You should have talked to staff about this." Obama then reportedly "said in a testy way to Maloney that at least now he can go back and tell his constituents he stood up to the president for them."
CNN reported that sources said Obama was "unnecessarily unkind when responding to Maloney's question."

Maybe the Congressional meeting screwed up Obama's golf schedule, so he lashed out.
Seriously, this is the sort of minutiae that should be delegated to staffers. -
Wish they'd press him about Benghazi and the IRS.
