I assume you speak the same way about the hecklers that interrupt Republicans and throw things at people when they're speaking on college campuses? I'll say this person showed little class, will you condemn those on the other side?

She, likely another misguided Republican, who in the same vein as Arizona's Governor Jan Brewer, can't muster up the proper level of respect and poise to respect the leader of the free world, while she makes a fool of herself with an inferior, misinformed view. The President again exemplified what separates him from the Republicans who irrationally oppose him just because, by acknowledging her viewpoint, stating he disagrees and why, then continuing with his message. No wonder Republicans FEAR the success they know this man can bring if he has his way. President Obama represents the beginning of the end to Republican politics.

We are fortunate to have this great man at the helm.

How do you know she wasn't a plant by the administration to try to show something counter to the intimidation narrative from the IRS story and the media investigations?

Long on rhetoric, short on action. He talks a good game, thanks to his teleprompter, but he can't run a country to save his life. He may sound good giving a speech, but his true character is proven by his words about the way this country is being run - "uh, I didn't know. Nobody told me. I never asked. I just found out."

But I get it. Media Matters must have put the word out for Obama's foot soldiers to get the word out about how great he is.

Another laudatory ode to Obama from LexusNexus who has man-love for our President.

Long on prose, short on substance.

As usual.

Most here know that I am no fan of President Obama. That said, he is the President of The United States; I do not abide anyone, right, left, what-have-you, interrupting him. I would have told the cackling old crow to belt up. The people attending that assembly came to hear the President and not her. I hope she gets charged with disorderly conduct.

Walmart is the third largest employer in the world. Do you think Mike Duke, Walmart's CEO has a clue what his 2.3 million employees are doing at any given time?

I would call out anyone in the public arena who acts like a classless idiot. Left or right. The wackjob cop screaming about "hussein " being obamas middle name for example. Or palin propping up children for more ratings and a gig on reality trash tv.

Anyone who gets a trash tv show needs to be shown the door, this country has serious economic and infrastructure issues, trump and their ilk need to be muzzled, it is a disgrace to the US and makes us a souce of ridicule, globally.
