Here's the issue. For the sake of argument, let's just say Barack Obama was correct in what he was saying. Was there any reason to be yelling at the elderly lady questioning you? Sure, maybe it ruffled his feathers. Sure, her tone was a little confrontational. So what? As President, many many people will be doing exactly that. Every time someone questions Obama or gets a little confrontational with him, is he going to lose his composure and yell at them, too?

I think that video is from Nov 2007
The snob didn't need to ask questions at those hearing; he knew everthing. In the video where he's shouting down the old lady, the snob amateurishly dismisses her by saying that the middle east is "a part of the world [he's] studied deeply."
Two thoughts on that statement and the video:
1. I thought he studied constitutional law? Or does his drug addled trip around Paaaah-ki-stan count as deep study?
2. The guy who the MSM says is a great speaker is sure doing a lot of stuttering and hemming and hawing when actually faced with a hostile question.
3. The "I've studied X deeply and you haven't" dismissal is something used in late night dormitory arguments, generally when somebody knows he can't make a cogent argument, but wants the other to stop an angle of argument. In practical politics at the presidential level? Holy crap, the guy is out of his depth... isn't the MSM still selling the snob as smooth, mature, collected, and nuanced? Obama is more of an arrogant buffoon than Kerry.
ahhhh....errrr....typical....ahhhh....errrrrr....white....person..ahhhhh.
The man does not believe in freespeech. While john mccain’s youtube channel allows anybody to post and it appears immidiately the obama YT channel makes sure it’s a pro-obama post before its allowed. Imagine what this guy will do to am radio and sites like Free Republic.
Dang these pesky voters.
No, it’s not the 20 month campaign. He’s just an angry black man.
It’s worth a try. It may be the Dean scream but I’m almost certain this is the same video I watched where the woman asked him how he will protect us from terrorists and what he will do about closing the border. I looked at the posting date of the video and it was atleast 8 months ago if not a year.
I also think Obama said something like “Osama Bin Laden did not hit the towers on 911, Saddam Hussein did not...”
That Bin Laden statement could be useful too.
I do think McCain needs to focus on economic issues. How are we going to fight the WOT if the economy drops from under us?
People vote with their wallets. McCain should get out there and compare the economy under Pelosi/Reid to what it was before they took control.
He peobably takes candy from babies too...(the ones he hasn’t killed through abortion)
He is Iowa and mentions Romney & Giuliani... so I’m thinking early primaries.
Hussein sure has issues.
I’d hate for him to have his finger on the nuclear trigger.
Thats just what I was thinking ...
Biden rips off someone elses speech and background in Iowa
Deans melt down scream in Iowa, (comedy genius that scream)
Now the O’ster gets all screamy with some concerned Iowan..
ha ha, maybe they are earning their virst Caucus position in the long run !
[Ahhhhh, this is an area I studied deeply]
Liberal foreign policy:
If it didn’t knock down the twin towers, it’s not a national security issue.
Biden is IN YOUR FACE. He doesn’t know Bambi’s energy plan either. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rXyTRT-NZg
If McCain did this it would be wall-to-wall “McCain’s temper.”
I am sorry, but I honestly don’t see what you all are seeing. I can not stand the man and am terrified of him becoming the POTUS, but it doesn’t appear to me that Obama is yelling at the woman as you are all claiming. And I don’t see him being disrespectful to her or confrontational. He is disagreeing with her, but there is no way that what he said to her is on par with Dean’s Scream. On the other hand, he can be faulted for not answering her question. She directly asked him about terrorism issues and illegal immigration, and he doesn’t respond to her actual questions. He starts talking about Iraq and tries to come off as some sort of expert, claiming that he has studied these matters. There is so much to attack Obama on. This is small potatoes.
I didn’t exactly see a “Dean-scream” in this video either, just obammy being certainly angry, disrespectful and ineloquent. In other words, being himself.
