Obama Heckled in College Park



Funny how the guy who tells people to "get in their faces" can't handle it when someone heckles him.
Thousands of University of Maryland College Park students mixed with the general public inside the Comcast Center today to hear President Barack Obama put in another pitch for his health care reform proposal.

But as Mr. Obama was speaking, a heckler shouted out "you lie" from the stands. The president apparently did not hear the heckler's remarks because he said to the crowd "what's going on guys?"
It also sounds like the heckler was calling him a murderer for his pro-abortion stance, dialogue I find out of line. But hey, Bush was called a murderer all the time and he just sloughed it off. Obama's skin is too thin for criticism.

Worth noting:
Former Maryland Governor Robert Ehrlich says he has no problem with President Obama holding rallies for healthcare reform but he does not understand why the president is referring to legislation being considered as "his bill."

Ehrlich says it is a little confusing because there is no bill with the president's name or the administration's name on it. Ehrlich says there are at least two competing bills out there now and the president is trying to do his best to garner support with a variety of themes. But he says taxpayers and Congress want to see an actual bill that they can give their opinion on.
Funny how few in the former mainstream media point out Obama has no bill.

Something else worth noting: If a heckler got tossed out of a Bush speech they'd be booked on CNN and MessNBC by dusk.

Food for thought: Never put it past the David Axelturf's of the world planting someone like this in the audience.

H/T Christopher.
