Bush has to have active security to keep hecklers out, and Obama gets heckled abroad and that's a conspiracy that it's not deemed newsworthy?
How about we look at what the "heckle" really was, shall we?
As the rabbi quietly read from Psalm 122, both he and Mr. Obama flipped through a Holy book on a wooden stand. The moment unfolded as a lone man standing about 10 yards away yelled over and over, “Obama, Jerusalem is not for sale! Obama, Jerusalem is not for sale!”
After the prayer, Mr. Obama walked a final few paces to the Wall and followed the custom of placing a personal prayer between the stone cracks, with his note left alongside hundreds of others. He placed his hand on the Wall, bowed his head and stood in quiet contemplation for a few moments.

As the New York Times shows...
Crap. That can't be right. Surely the NYT couldn't have said that, cause they're a U.S. paper and there is an
AGENDA that must be happening here...
Oh well.
As the article shows the heckle, does anybody think it's worthy of discussion?
Does anybody think there is a serious concern over whether or not Obama plans to BUY Jerusalem?
He's a nutter, and deserves no press.
But if some people report on his EXISTENCE, without repeating WHAT HE ACTUALLY SAID (cause THAT's the real conspiracy), THEN it somehow seems "sinister"...
I'm amused at how the "original article" doesn't even tell you HOW MANY people were involved in the "heckling".
It just says Obama "was heckled", so you don't get a feel if it was one, or a hundred people who heckled him.
Guh-REAT news reporting there!!!
The only thing to see here is how some people will endlessly seek any opportunity to attack Obama without all the facts...
(Or, without reporting ANY of the really salient facts...)
