How did President react to not being told about IRS scandal?

Ed Rogers:
...
Was the president pleased that he had not been told? Did he say something like, “Thanks for not telling me. Continue to not tell me things in the future. Heck of a job. Keep up the great work.” Did he ask if there was anything else his senior staff was not telling him? Is it standard practice in the White House not to tell the president things? What is the criteria used to decide what the president is told and what he isn’t?
Further, did the president initiate the practice of insulating himself from information? What does he fear would happen if he knew more? What does his staff fear the president would do if they were more forthcoming with him? What is it about President Obama that makes him ineligible to receive certain types of information? Is the president content with his current level of staff-maintained ignorance or does he think he needs more? Or less?

Is the President pleased to be known as the guy who doesn't know.  He seems less informed than readers of this blog.  I might suggest that he start reading it, but you never know what he and Holder might cook up then.
