Happy Tuesday.

Reactions to Obama's stupid "you didn't build that" comment:

Rep. Paul Ryan had a lot to say.

RNC Chairman Reince Priebus: "Says a lot about Obama's big govt philosophy."

The Romney campaign says Obama's insults to business owners "reflect just how unqualified he is to lead us to a real economic recovery."

A Chamber of Commerce blogger was more measured: "the basic idea behind all of these comments is really objectionable and offensive." There was no official statement from the Chamber.*

The National Federation of Independent Businesses (the group that sued over Obamacare) hit the right note in an official statement: “His unfortunate remarks over the weekend show an utter lack of understanding and appreciation for the people who take a huge personal risk and work endless hours to start a business and create jobs."

*UPDATE: I'm told that the Chamber post was written by the Chief Operating Officer, so it's "pretty official."
