When teabaggers showed up with guns at events the president was going to be at it makes one wonder what those loonies had in mind. It also shows what kind idiots teabaggers are for even doing such a thing considering our nations history of assassinations and attempted assassinations of presidents.

LOL, you mean the African American guy that CNN pretended was white so they could make the claim of racism?

No, I mean teabaggers, African-Americans don't make up a large portion of them but they do exist and they are as nutty as the white ones.

That's not a softball question when there's a multi-billion dollar industry built around convincing the public that the words "Obama's agenda" are synonymous with "secret communist plot to take over America and redistribute our wealth and guns to anarchist black supremacist community organizers". It's a question with no simple yes or no answer and no way to adequately address it in a drive-by style interview, which is exactly what the "student" was probably counting on.
I mean - if THAT sets you off, you need fucking psychiatric help.
Agreed - he should have just walked away.

Shit - Bush used to get people jumping up at his press conferences accusing him of murder.
Well, he did start an unnecessary war against an opponent who hadn't attacked us. If Obama follows through with his announced plan to assassinate a US citizen in a non-combat zone for having Al-Qaeda ties, then he'll deserve to have someone jump up and accuse him of murder as well. (I have mixed feelings on his continuation of Bush's wars, because while I'd like to see us get out of there, there's a ring of truth to Colin Powell's "Pottery barn rule".)

Obama Death Prayer Facebook Group gets over a million fans

Death threats against Obama up 400%

Oh yes, clearly anyone who predicts violence from the right in the current political climate is a partisan hack.
Who needs a signature anyway?
