Conservative author, filmmaker, and Fox News darling Dinesh D'Souza attacked President Obama as a “boy out of the ghetto” and “vulgar man” following the president's recent appearance in a BuzzFeed video promoting health coverage through HealthCare.gov.
On February 12, Obama appeared in a BuzzFeed video to promote the upcoming deadline to sign up for health coverage through the Affordable Care Act, a move that invoked the ire of conservative media.
Fox favorite Dinesh D'Souza responded to the video on February 18 by viciously attacking Obama on Twitter, writing “you can take the boy out of the ghetto...”:

D'Souza followed up his initial attack:
I know Obama wasn't actually raised in a ghetto--I'm using the term metaphorically, to suggest his unpresidential conduct
