CBS' Kroft Asks Obama "Are You Punch-Drunk?"

Steve Croft took an aggressive approach in his "60 Minutes" interview with President Barack Obama tonight.

“You're sitting here. And you're ... you are laughing. You are laughing about some of these problems. Are people going to look at this and say, ‘I mean, he's sitting there just making jokes about money.’ How do you deal with ... I mean: explain ...” Kroft asks.

“Are you punch-drunk?” Kroft says.

“No, no. There's gotta be a little gallows humor to get you through the day,” Obama says, with a laugh.

No matter what you think of the policies, it's seems to be a bit of a low blow to ask the president of the United States if he's "punch-drunk."
