Obama responds: 'It's like these guys take pride in being ignorant"

Also in Berea, Obama (defended his remark about inflating tires, a first response to the favorite Republican attack of the moment, which he'd ignored for a few days as the GOP mailed gas gauges to reporters. (One apparently reached my home in Brooklyn today, producing some puzzlement.)
