Pro-Bradley Manning Hecklers Interrupt Obama Speech
ABC News' The Note ^ | August 22, 2013 | Mary Bruce and Arlette Saenz

SYRACUSE, N.Y. — While making the pitch on his new college affordability plan for a second time, President Obama was interrupted by pro-Bradley Manning hecklers at Henninger High School in Syracuse, N.Y., Thursday evening.

Two women holding a giant “Free Bradley Manning” sign yelled at the president in the middle of his speech. It was unclear what the women were saying, but they were escorted out of the gymnasium to applause from the crowd.

When the women started shouting, the president said, “I hear you,” and tried to calm down the crowd. After the two women left, Obama called the hecklers “polite” before continuing with his college affordability speech.

“Can I just say that, as hecklers go, that young lady was very polite. She was! And she brought up an issue of importance, and that’s part of what America is all about,” Obama said. “But what America is also all about is making sure that middle-class families succeed.”(continued)

OFA plants to give him cover for pardoning or commuting Private Manning's sentence? Does anyone here think he would have called Tea Party, anti-Obamacare, pro-life or birther hecklers "polite" and say that they raised important issues?

This guy is so far out of his league it defies description.

You really have to listen the audio of just how badly and inappropriately Obama dealt with this.

The only downside is that the asininity of his behavior overshadows the breathtaking inappropriateness and just plain weirdness of his response

This type heckling is a gift to Obama and he knew it was going to happen.

Manning’s ONLY mistake was doing what he did under the Obama administration, which will not tolerate insubordination. Manning and Obama are otherwise on the same page in their beliefs and goals. Manning will be pardoned when Obama leaves office.
