OH PLEASE!! He said “I’m going now” and the yelling immediately started. I guess she didn’t want to interrupt his mumblings. She keeps yelling and he immediately starts reading from TOTUS in response to her fit. If this wasn’t planned why was he using TOTUS/ She was a plant so he can try to look like he’s so concerned and so presidential.
you know that’s the first thing I thought of too...
In the midst of all that is coming out he suddenly cares about...GITMO????
They knew a heckler would be 24/7 news too
Seems like the recent dead and wounded from terrorist bombs at the Boston Marathon have no bearing on a holding facility like Gitmo. After all, Al-Quada is on the run and Osama is no more. So what if we have a dead Ambassador and some brave soldiers killed by such in Benghazi. Barry has all the answers doesn’t he? Code Pink helps pull his puppet strings.
They had this planned. The left wing nuts are easily bought and paid for. Watch the video. As soon as she sits down his head starts going back abd forth because he’s reading his response to her from TOTUS.
If it was a conservative thay would have been dragged out by their lower lip. This makes me sick!
Let me get this straight, he wants to close Gitmo, he was heckled by someone who wants him to close Gitmo.
Isn’t this designed to create the false impression that he supports Gitmo?
If you recall correctly hussein said he was going to close gitmo on his very first day in office. Therefore, I assume it is already closed, right? Hahahahahaha
No wonder they let her go on and on.
I immediately thought it was planned. So did my spouse.
It's possible the little pinko "heckler" wasn't in on the plot -- however it is almost certain Obama knew she would be in the audience. I would guess he even pre-advised his security to let her rant.
So at minimum, Obama was ready to be "heckled," and he had his cute little lines ready in response ... the better to receive laughter, admiration and applause from the audience.
Yea it was staged, Benjamin and Hussien are BFF.
It was SO planned...
That was a founder of Code Pink, Jodi something or other...
I believe the speech was held at the National War College which is on Ft. McNair, a military base in DC, and you need an ID card to get on it.
Doubt she has one.
