I wonder how they pick those to attend.

Can't believe they booed this lady on this legit question--

The popular president got at least one biting question during a candid question question-and-answer session, when a woman who identified herself as Tara took Obama to task for some of the tax lapses of his high-level nominees.

"You've come to our county and asked us to trust you, but those that you have appointed to your Cabinet are not trustworthy and can't handle their own budget and taxes," she said. Others in the town-hall session booed her, but Obama interjected: "No, no, this is a legitimate question."
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Would hate to see what they did if I got to quiz him

Mr Pres 2 questions--

1st Since your the only pres in history with personal experience on either--could you tell us how welfare and foodstamps will stimulate economy?

2nd Since by your own admission you and wife at age 40 had no home and were in debt up to your eyeballs--until "the Fixer" Rezco and Chicago politics took you under their collective wings
--how will you run the countries fianances differently than how you ran your own--appears its same ole shit expect tax payor is on hook for it.

He'll be here in Fort Myers tomorrow for a 'town hall meeting.' Friggin' people camped overnight last night to get their tickets, which were free. Now they're going for around $1000 according to the paper.

And this county is probably as red as Waynes, or close to it.

I think this says a lot about the entire subject, really. He could have played along with the crowd - or like the last President, completely dismissed the person/question with a cackle and smirk - but he adressed the person with respect and gave credence to an uncomfortable question. Seems pretty admirable, to me.

Can you recap his answer? I'd like to hear what he said, if that might be important enough to matter, compared to some unruly crowd members or putting forth your own agenda.

Refreshing open door who gets there first gets in. Not hand picked. And questions taken at random. So out in open it's driving the Reb's nuts.

I am absolutely astounded that anyone anywhere could think that it is a bad thing that someone on welfare and foodstamps became President of the United States.

You haven't written a college paper that concluded that blacks were an inferior race of people either. There is no way you will ever understand his world.

I see your once again trying to play the race card--and emphasizing by taking things out of context.

The paper had nothing to do with anyone being inferior--but rather on advancement of cultures.
--and don't see how I could be racist when I had Jewish and Asian cultures in almost dead heat at top and I am of neither persuasion.

Now I'll put this to rest for about the 3rd time the way I see it--the same as they all ended before--but this time we'll go by your #'s.

You name the qualifications you deem pertinent in the advancement of cultures.

Then report back to us your global and U.S. demographical findings with supporting stats.

Yea I know--end of discussion--AGAIN--kurby

.

Please tell me this is a poor attempt at a joke.
Questions about the unemployed getting food stamps but no questions about CEO's ripping off millions for bonus's......typical.
