The President was very deferential to Medea Benjamin. and very respectful towards her. But this was a public address delivered by the President of the United States, and it was rude and disrespectful to interrupt him. Remember when that idiot. a member of the House of Reprsentatives in the audience burst out with "You lie!" in the middle of one of his speeches? It does not matter what the subject matter is, it was a disrespectful act to interrupt him, causing him to lose his momentum in making a point he wanted to get across. I happen to agree with Ms.Benamin and her views, but not with her method of delivery. She should have more respect for herself and for her views.
Emotional outbursts only produce bad reflections on the maker. There are better and more effective ways of making ones views known, IMO..

I so disagree. He pretended to be respectful. What was he going to do? And what method COULD she use to get her views across? It's not like MSM covers all the good work done by Code Pink. So they have to resort to this kind of behavior to make their point count.
Thanks Peter for the Democracy Now post, but man they are so lame.
I did not see your post before I made mine about "the only good thing about the speech".
Endless war. It has been the plan well before 9-11. And the sheeple still love him.
