Illinois Republican Representative Joe Walsh actually went there with the patronizing, racist remarks. At a BBQ in his district on Sunday, Walsh called the president "son" and said he wanted to "pat him on the head." "There’s something different on the ground, and I think it’s going to overtake us all again, think it’s going to overtake the political class," Walsh said.
