Obama handles disrupter VERY WELL!

[napi21]

I just saw this on MSNBC, He was speaking somewhere today (sorry I didn't catch where) and some young guy interrupted him yessling about not having said the Pledge of Alligence. Barack told everyone to calm down and let the man speak. He appologized for not having done that because they usually do, and he asked the guy to lead it. Barack, having the mike was the one you could hear most plainly, but everyone joined in and everybody is happy!

I think he handled this EXTREMELY WELL!

1. wouldn't it have been funny if the guy leading it (the protester) didn't even know all the words!

but Obama did.

9. That would have been absolutely hilarious.

2. Indeed he is getting really good at town halls and such

He was fired up today, the best i've seen him in a while. The message must have gotten out that he needs to go back to being a fighter.

3. I've never seen him not handle a difficult situation with class.

The dude is just ON, no matter what crap is thrown at him.

4. I agree, he handled that extremely well...

and I think the repukes have been putting plants in his audience lately. What a rediculous complaint.

5. Of course it was an awful rendition of the National Anthem by some crappy band

I bet the Moran was all prepared to "get" Obama... too bad he got schooled.

6. I hope this goes on youtube because I missed it

7. MSNBC just showed the video.

If the Republican's staged that stunt, they just got their asses handed to them. Hopefully, it will be played on the other cable shows. Talk about a backfire.

Well played Obama.

8. Also note that the guy stayed throughout the town hall.

Had it been a Bush or McCain event, he'd be "escorted" as soon as possible.
