The laser-focused Barack Obama took a moment today to personally and publicly thank Zach Galifianakis for having him on “Between Two Ferns,” the comedy interview show on website Funny or Die. Galifianakis even earned the coveted “-bo” signature, meaning the president himself sent the message.
Hey @galifianakisz, thanks for sending so many folks to #GetCoveredNow at http://t.co/5zeR2RQuXe. And good luck with those spider bites. -bo

Expect to hear plenty more from the Funny or Die folk on the Affordable Care Act: White House Obamacare cheerleader Tara McGuinness said the site was the top referrer to HealthCare.gov this morning, and the relationship between the White House and Funny or Die isn’t over yet.

The president wasn’t the only one to offer thanks to the “Hangover” star.
Hey @galifianakisz, thanks for showing the world what a lightweight we have for president. @WhiteHouse
