In a speech in R.I., our president ordered any Republicans present to sit in the back.

"We gotta have middle class families up in front. We don't mind Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back."

How's that for a president representing ALL the PEOPLE??? BTW, are there really no middle class republicans???

Okay. What next???

Obama is being fair letting them be at the event. When democrats wanted to show up at a bush/republican speech, they were forced to be placed often blocks away from the event.

Wow, just wow!!!

I guess that means we can go back to the days of asking Rosa Parks to sit in the back.

If Obama is slicing and dicing the population like this, and asking certain people to "sit in the back" then Rosa Parks and MLK's battles for equality for all is meaningless. Sad.

Race card, race baiting, racial politics - what will this disgusting post-partisan president think of next?

Was he off teleprompter again?

Go sit in the back (of the bus) is more than an unfortunate choice of words. Those "words" mean a lot to many people in this country.
Very bad, just as the "enemy" comment was a couple of days ago.

They are in full panic mode - not "thinking clearly" when scared.

Wrong.. they forced protesters to be blocks away, which is done by BOTH political parties. No one asked for a Dem/Rep voter registration to get into the event..

No. He was giving a speech. Unbelievable, isn't it? And HE thinks FOX news is divisive and dangerous???!!! He needs to look in the mirror.

Poor babies, you must really be outraged over this. I admire how you all seem to hold up so well to it.

You may say it over and over, but that doesn't make it true. And nobody really needs a psychology degree to see that the accuser is more guilty of these actions then the person she's pointing the finger at.
