1. Very disrespectful to the President.

Off with his head.

[freshwest]

8. And to everyone else who was listening to a point well made about being humane to all our people.

Just what we can always expect from a rightwing hack. They snarl at words about doing the right thing and helping to build our nation's future.

They hate the thought of that, just like they hated the words of love and peace Martin Luther King, Jr. used to bring about justice and move the nation to a better path.

The demon inside this clown couldn't stand hearing those words, so he had to interrupt that message. How many soulless fools are listening to this exchange on the media and think they won something by this event...

I don't know how Obama can stand, day after day, in the face of such evil.

2. Thanks for getting all this info in one place - rec'd - nt

3. And here's one more tidbit

Tucker Carlson/DailyCaller congratulated Neil Munro

The Daily Caller ?@DailyCaller

We are very proud of, @NeilMunroDC for doing his job

4. Fucking repugs...

I never thought I'd again see so many be so openly racist and proud of it. What a bunch of scumbags.

It's pretty awesome

[sulphurdunn]

5. How about this headline:

Neo-Con Butt Boy Interrupts President to Get PR Spike for Fading Bow Tie Preppy Tucker Carlson.

[wilsonbooks]

7. That about sums it up.

[siligut]

18. Bloomberg had some footage of N-CBB exiting the rose garden rather quickly

He looked real shook-up and was getting out of there. I think you are on to something though, this gives Carlson some attention.

[RBInMaine]

6. Obama civily but forcefully SHUT HIM UP ! In fact, this asshat made himself LOOK like an ASSHAT.

[pacalo]

9. Very uncivil & unprofessional -- I am seething!!!

[Grassy Knoll]

10. Juan Williams had a good point....

Bloggers are not real journalists.
Daily crapper and fucker carlson , what did anybody expect.

[Bjorn Against]

16. Some bloggers are real journalists, some are much better journalists than the big networks have

The Daily Caller certainly is not real journalism, but there are good bloggers out there and I think some of them deserve the same press credentials the big networks get. They should also have to follow the same rules other media outlets have to follow however, and after this event the Daily Caller should be permanently stripped of their press passes to any White House event.

[kestrel91316]

11. Get the f--k out of MY country, Mr. Munro. And don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out

[freshwest]

13. +1,000! Those kids were BORN HERE!

[Marr]

12. So cut off their access.

If the Daily Caller is allowed a presence at any future event like this, the White House is full of chumps.

[PlanetBev]

14. This reminds me of how much I don't miss Breitbart

If he wasn't ten toes up already, this is the kind of shit he'd be pulling everyday.

[smiley]

17. I work with a couple of right-wingers

and they were talking about this today at work. I didn't know what they were yapping about or what Obama had done.

I see now they were discussing Obama's reaction to a heckler. They couldn't believe he had the nerve to do what he did. My one co-worker's exact words... "if bush had done something like this the media would been all over him."

This dude is always raving about how the media is so easy on Obama compared to Bush.

I don't ever engage in conversation about politics at work and I hate when they sit and bash Obama and democrats all day. Drives me crazy but I refuse to bring that political tension into my workplace. But I swear I must be living on a different planet sometimes after listening to their conversations.

[siligut]

19. Amanda Dury on Bloomberg called it "a presidential outburst", she was shut down quick

And then the discussion turned to the heckler.

[maddiemom]

22. Outburst? President Obama was far more civil than Munro deserved.

This sort of disrespect is particular to President Obama and unprecedented. The right wing was all over Clinton, but not in his face. It's hard to feel that it isn't racist. The President has been very gracious, but he's even been criticized for standing up for what should be common courtesy.

[siligut]

23. Yes, I was so glad she was shut down

She was the first to speak and she launched right into it like it was par for the course to criticize Obama. But she was completely shut down by the the talk about the heckler. That was good to see.

Really, knowing what racists some of the RW are, I would have to agree. They are talking about it on The Ed Show now and say the evidence indicates the rude disrespect probably is racist.

[Historic NY]

20. I sometimes tweet these jerks..........

@NeilMunroDC hey douchebag...you need your WH press pass suspended.

[Flatpicker]

21. Terrible

For as much as I didn't agree with GWB, I understood the need to respect the position.
That's why I was against the shoe thrower.

It's not difficult to wait until the QA portion before you start flinging feces.

DC should have their credentials pulled as should TC for condoning it.

[kayakjohnny]

24. I was against the shoe thrower too. His aim was atrocious. He didn't lead for the duck.

It would have been so much easier to 'respect the position' for Bush if he'd come to the White House legitimately in the first place.

But I still see your point.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

25. I see a whole bunch of jokes coming out of this
