Martin Bashir Showcases Bus Explosions While Discussing Romney Bus Tour - YouTube

Hmmm, what's more disrespectful, what the DC guy did or this MessNBC guy?

I wonder why the media isnt showing this. If someone did this about Obama, there would be outrage from EVERYWHERE!

Commence your silence and excuses ....you know who

All this guy here did was express his desire to see a bus carrying a politician he dislikes explode and burn, killing the passengers.

Hey, its not like he asked a question at a press conference.

Yes, this is absolutely wrong. And personally I take an exception to some who is British doing this to boot.

And the so-called journalist who heckled Obama was also wrong, as Bush's former spokesperson makes quite clear:

"And in a sign of the almost unprecedented nature of the confrontation, former George W. Bush spokesman Tony Fratto tweeted after the broadcast: 'Reporters don't interrupt presidential statements. Period. @NeilMunroDC should be banned from [the White House]'.

Sarah Palin posted a map with cross-hairs and was (and is still) blamed for some psychopath's rampage.

Don't you just love these double standards from the media?

He is such a nut. Why do they leave him on tv? Just because of his English accent and some sort of ethnic origin other than white?

Yep killing a busload of people is the same thing as interrupting a speaker who just happens to be the President. The old double standard is going I see. This is just like the left claiming that Watergate is the equal of the White House leaks last week. One purely purely political and the other detrimental to our national security.
