Barack Obama heckled

I think he handled it rather well, he didn't have the "jackbooted thugs" that Vi talks about come and remove him, (Like at a McCain rally). He said just be curteous and i'll get to your question. Then later let him ask his question and gave the standard answer, "We all need to come together". Pretty much sums it up.
People are escorted out of rallies all the time. It is true for Republicans and Democrats. Your term 'jackbooted thugs' applies to Democrats and Republicans.

Look at what Nancy Pelosi did yesterday in the House of Representatives and you'll see the Democrats definition of tolerance of opposing views. She even shut of the lights, barred reporters, and shut down the CSPAN cameras.

Obama's public events are well choreographed. So much so, I'd say they have done a good job of keeping possibly disruptive people out before the rally before the arrival of the candidate. The campaign had less control in the U.K. than in the U.S., so one got through.

It will happen to Barry Obama soon in the U.S. because the threat of disruption will continue to increase as the election draws near. If the media reports it, we'll see Obama's 'jackbooted thugs' spring into action before the cameras.

You hope, For parities sake. It's Vi's description, not mine BTW. Oh, and for the record, it's Barak, not Barry, and yeah I know it's McCain not McSame or McShame, but I can't help it. I hate the Bush doctrine so. He is 4-8 more years of the Bush doctrine. I'm thinking, if he (McSame) gets elected, I'll seriously look at an alternative country to live in. I'll have to find one that is kinda remote so as to avoid the nuclear clouds, and one that Bush/McSame doesn't want to invade.

I know his name: Barak Hussein Obama. It's ironic to see you correcting me when I can clearly remember some of your favorite names. By the way, he called himself 'Barry' in his youth.

I call him Barry Hussein Ocarter.

It's all the McSame.
