Was that a reporter or a member of congress?

And as sure as the sun will rise in the east and set in the west, that base was covered in the opening line of the OP.

Sad we cannot just discuss an incident in a calm and logical manner without becoming five-year-olds and playing the petty broad-stroking game.

Oh, I am very calm. I listed a string of indications this party has shown disdain on many fronts for Obama. I posted the meetings they had the day he became POTUS, the comments of the leader, the name calling in the middle of the SOTU speech and this incident. I made a case of disrespect and the undermining of this POTUS. Where did I get any of that wrong?

Not really, I made a case using factual events of the right trying to show disrespect and or undermining the POTUS. Seems to be a bit different from other presidents. Did the left have a meeting planning the ways to undermine Bush? Nah, This has been a pattern from the right for this guy inparticular. His interviews on FOX were accusitory and disrespectful.

Welcome to the forum, Loganthor!...

The Daily Caller has come out with a statement...

Statements from The Daily Caller regarding exchange in White House Rose Garden

Quote:

Neil Munro, White House Correspondent: “I always go to the White House prepared with questions for our president. I timed the question believing the president was closing his remarks, because naturally I have no intention of interrupting the President of the United States. I know he rarely takes questions before walking away from the podium. When I asked the question as he finished his speech, he turned his back on the many reporters, and walked away while I and at least one other reporter asked questions.”

Tucker Carlson, Editor-in-Chief: “I don’t remember Diane Sawyer scolding her colleague Sam Donaldson for heckling President Reagan. And she shouldn’t have. A reporter’s job is to ask questions and get answers. Our job is to find out what the federal government is up to. Politicians often don’t want to tell us. A good reporter gets the story. We’re proud of Neil Munro.”

Neil Patel, Publisher: “The President today announced a very controversial policy and does not want to answer tough questions about it. Neil Munro is a veteran Washington reporter who today tried his best to time his question to be first as the President was wrapping up his remarks. He in no way meant to heckle the President of the United States.”

As Mikeyy would say when a story is negative toward Obama, "It's a non-story."...But this makes Obama the victim and the big, bad, conservative reporter Hitler reincarnate, so the media is going into Ludicrous Speed to make sure "molehill" gets to "mountain"...And Mikeyy's the first guy to make sure the members know about it...
