DECORAH, Iowa — President Obama was confronted by a tea party activist Monday night who wanted to know how Mr. Obama can call for compromise with Republicans while Democrats accuse the tea party of being “terrorists.”
Ryan Rhodes, a leader of the group in Iowa, challenged Mr. Obama during the president’s open-air town hall meeting in Decorah, a town of 8,200 in the northeast corner of Iowa, as the president was taking questions from a mostly friendly audience. The tense moment came soon after Mr. Obama had told the crowd that he views himself as the reasonable one in dealing with congressional Republicans.
Mr. Rhodes shouted out that the president’s calls for more civility in politics were meaningless when “your vice president is calling people like me, a tea party member, a ‘terrorist.’ “

Mr. Rhodes and another conservative activist later confronted the president on the rope line as Mr. Obama was leaving the event. Mr. Rhodes told reporters he does believe the president is a socialist.

Just saw the clip on Fox & Friends. Also, saw the clip of Dana Perino saying the Tea Party folks should never had said anything. Oh, those elites!
God bless you, Mr. Rhodes. Thank you for speaking out on behalf of those of us who couldn’t be there.
Decorah, Iowa is known more for its eagles, than for the recent visit of the crow.
By today Mr Rhodes will have undergone a full journalistic colonoscopy as an example to other would-be uppity hobbits.
Brave guy!
Ever since Fox drove Beck out I can barely stand to watch it. I watch Fox Business instead.
Where does she get off telling anyone what to say?
Never question the ruling class! Gretchen was agreeing with her. I was so disgusted with Perino and Gretchen that I turned Fox off. I thought the Tea Party folks were very respectful. They gave Obama time to answer and were posing the questions that the media refuses to ask Obama. What are we supposed to do. Keep quiet and let the ruling class ruin the future for our children and grandchildren.
Dana Pe-RINO, couldn't have a better descriptive name.
Thanks for posting this thread! I was too mad.
Varney and Company is better than any show on Fox News.
Chris Wallace is the worst interviewer on TV.
“I miss President Bush greatly! Palin in 2012!”
I do, too. With all that he did that I DON’T like (holding hands with wicked Bedouins, allowing the Mexican invasion, showing Obama how to throw our money in the air) I find him a likeable guy.
He stepped aside with a visitor to the oval office and prayed with him, as opposed to the other politicians praying ostentatiously for publicity. He’s an admirable politician and a likeable guy. Unfortunately, in that office is the pressure to move America into the New World Order no matter what the President wants.
I agree with the Palin part, too!
These cheesy Hollywood wannabe’s and pseudo ‘journalists’ are not credible. I tuned OUT!
It is the same almost EVERY time I tune in. I keep away from FOX for this very reason!!
She's a Bush "Valley of the Dolls" girl. A poster pinup blonde of the republican elitists that infest D.C. and the media.
Is there any doubt now that Bush’s regime was pure RINO?
Interesting choice of words. He doesn't deny being born in a different country or being a socialist or destroying America and taking away its freedoms. Slick.
Yes, Dana, we should all grovel and toil in silence, never lifting our eyes to meet our betters.
Uh oh. Look for a visit from the armed IRS.
The Five sucks. Perino is ok to look at, but thats the extent of that show.
President Obama referred to the debate and the 8-zip response to a 10-1 cuts-to-taxes debt reduction deal. “None of them would take it,” he crowed. “Think about that. I mean, that’s just not common sense.”
The quote is from another post regarding the expensive bus tour that is not a campaign event. LOL yur killin me.
...and speaking of crows.
I’m afraid Mr President wouldn’t be able to recognize common sense, if he was bitten by it right where he sits.
Now she's just another ice-princess snob who can't hide her vanity and condescension. A Hollywoodesque bimbo--and I notice she flashes a lot of skin for her Bryn Mawr and Sweetbriar airs.
Cannot. Stand. Her.
