    I heard the hosts on Fox say that Biden did not specifically call Tea Partiers Terrorists. Even if he didn't specifically state that, the media has done a fine job in his place.

    Dana Perino says that she is disturbed by this level of confrontation....and i am a little also because of where this has the potential to go. The left is setting up a scenario for violence and the conservatives/tea partiers are the target for retailiation when that happens.

    I do have to say though that the left is way more guilty of this than the right. They raise the bar continuously on incivility. When they do this, it opens the door for the right to become more incivil. EVEN THOUGH these two were not near as confrontational as the left would have been.

    I thought the tea party was supposed to be against staged gotcha questions.

    More hypocrites. Funny how they showed up on coats and suits to make themselves look sane.

    It seems Obama doesnt accept the premise of the man's charge about Biden, nor likely does he think he has to answer for the VP you mention. Do you?

    Man, color me impressed.

    He really took him to task on the tough issues facing this country. I mean, screw the debt. Screw the economy. Screw the languishing wars. Screw unemployment.

    This tea partier tackled the tough one, the possibility that perhaps someone, somewhere called someone a name.

    With this kind of prioritization of issues, I can not see why the tea party folks would not be running the country real soon.

    It was an appropriate follow up question to the focus of Obama's speech. He didn't talk about economic solutions either...only how Congress botched it up. He was sticking with the blame game, and civility issues...so it was a logical appropriate follow up question.

    Or did the clip leave out some part about Obama's solutions to the economic problems that we missed?

    I am sorry, but are you trying to justify the stupidity that seems to be endemic to the tea party as demonstrated by this case? Justify taking the president to task on name calling rather than real issues?

    Yea, guess asking Obama for a honest answer....on any subject...is a gotcha question for you folks.

    BS...throwing around the label of "terrorist" aimed at US citizens who are concerned about an over spending, over reaching federal gov is just plain wrong & Obama's (yes, mr. civility himself) blatant dismissal of the question IS hypocritical.

    Agreed.


    This is a real issue. Calling your main opposition terrorists by the VP of the United States is a real issue.

    Tell you what, I rather be called a socialist than a terrorist.

    This guy is no leader, he's a name caller.

    Wow. Private citizens premeditatively shouting down the president as if they were pundits on Hannity or Breitbart himself.....or Code Pink Protestors.....

    Good show! Did they really want an answer from Obama? No, they just wanted to be filmed spewing their assertions with the President as a backdrop.

    I think they did.
    Someone needs to call this admin on the carpet for the slanderous things they say !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The LIAR-and-Thief takes great pains to avoid being verbally accountable for anything. I'm glad they put him on the spot. The MSM should...

    And what did he do? He lied, deflected, and then maneuvered himself away.
