During his visit to Florida yesterday, Obama praised Grayson, calling the freshman representative “outstanding” in a speech praising other members of the state’s Democratic congressional delegation.
“President Obama should immediately rescind his accolades and condemn Grayson’s shameful comments, and Congressman Grayson should issue an apology,” said RNC co-chair Jan Larimer.
