Obama replied, shaking his head, "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears. Me thinks the lady doth protest too much! Methinks she has a lean and hungry look, done to death by slanderous tongue. Blow, blow thou winter wind. Get thee to a nunnery."

Obama's calm retort ended the back and forth, "I am constant as the northern star. What, my dear lady Disdain! Are you yet living?"
