Obama to heckler in Arizona: ‘Set up your own rally’

Former President Obama on Wednesday told a heckler at a Phoenix campaign event to “set up your own rally” after the individual shouted and interrupted his speech.

Obama was discussing the impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the lives of Americans when the heckler shouted something and stopped the former president mid-speech.

“Are you going to start yelling?” Obama asked, before the crowd began booing. “Don’t start yelling.”

It’s unclear who the heckler was and what he was upset about, but Obama channeled the incident into a discussion on civility.

“You have to be polite and civil when people are talking,” Obama said. “Then you get a chance to talk. Set up your own rally. Come on, man.”

Its a good response actually.

Gateway Pundit identified the heckler as a ‘reporter’ for The Daily Wire.
My question is, can a ‘reporter’ heckling a political speaker be considered objective? Can I trust his reporting any more than I can Chuck Todd’s?
My answer is no.

“You have to be polite and civil when people are talking,” Obama said.

Apparently he's never been to a college where they had a conservative speaker.

Its great Obama has finally been flushed out - and “flushed” is the correct term - to openly defend his policies enacted by stooge Lunchbox Joe, instead of hiding in Martha’s Vineyard while the country burns.

See we just have burly men remove a heckler at our rallies.

But an Obama rally has no burly men.

[rlmorel]

Yeah. Obama is a pussy, plain and simple.

Golly, Barry, don’t get all wee-wee’d up now.

“You have to be polite and civil when people are talking,” Obama said.

Isn't this the guy who said to "Get in their face. Argue with them"?

[bray]

Probably couldn’t speak English.

I’m surprise Ol’ Dumbo went back to Arizona after Jan Brewer took him to the woodshed the last time the idiot showed his face around Arizona. He needs to stick to the Vineyard where the Marthas bow down to him when he goes by in his limo.

“’You have to be polite and civil when people are talking,’ Obama said.”

Surely he didn’t really say that, knowing how absolutely nasty, obscene and disruptive his own Party’s activists are.

[Brian Griffin]

Obama is 100% correct on the matter.

[RckyRaCoCo]

“Get in their face!”

[vivenne]

Don’t bring a knife to a gun fight.

Something like this happened last week in Michigan.

It’s beginning to look a scripted “teachable moment.”

[Machavelli]

Hey Obama, go back to Kenya.

[ConservativeInPA]

Rally? Probably tens, I tell you, tens of people in a high school gym.

[thinden]

“Get in their face!”
