DES MOINES, Iowa -- Paul Ryan's highly anticipated debut at the Iowa
State Fair was interrupted by a handful of hecklers who relentlessly
barraged the newly minted Republican running mate with jeers.
"Whoa, hey, all right," Ryan responded, as a woman scrambled to get on
the stage and was hustled away by state troopers.
"It's funny because Iowans and Wisconsinites, we like to be respectful
of one another and be peaceful with one another and listen to each
other," remarked Ryan. "These guys must not be from Iowa or
Wisconsin."
Two people tried to make it on stage -- one made it, and the other
didn't.
"Stop the war on the common good!" another man began shouting at the
front of the crowd, beating his fist against the air in the direction
of the candidate. Moments before, the heckler had been waiting quietly
on the hay bales under the hot August sun. People had gathered hours
before Ryan's scheduled stop to see him. Now, supporters were angrily
confronting the heckler, holding up their campaign signs to block his
view of Ryan.
Yells of "Snake oil salesman!" "Stop the war on the middle class!" and
"We are the 99 percent!" and the bickering that followed resulted in a
din that nearly drowned out the candidate's speech, which was blaring
from the speakers.
If distracted, Ryan remained calm on stage, sticking to his stump
lines and throwing a jab at the president, "My guess is the reason
President Obama isn't making it here from Council Bluffs is that he
only knows left turns."
Later in the speech, as the shouts continued, Ryan demurred, We re
used to this in Wisconsin.
On the way out, one of the men shouted and obsenity, calling
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney a "disgrace." Romney,
however, was not at the state fair, but rather campaigning in Florida.

Good for him.

I hope they were arrested.

Now this is ok to me. They have the right to state their opinions in a public forum. Ryan was talking to the public. He also has the right to state his opinion.

A cute, but inane remark, probably ignored by everyone.

I wonder why that is?

The man who shouted the obscenity was rude and out of line. I don't like Mitt Romney, I'm most certainly not going to vote for him. But he's a Presidential Candidate (or will be in a month or thereabouts) and deserves respect, just as President Obama does. You disagree with their policies, fine. Don't vote for them, state your case. But do it politely.

"Politely" in this election. This is the worse election I have seen.
The world is laughing.

No one can afford it, and your president is a despicable liar.

Zepp is an unperson....
That's from David (Zepp) Jamieson who apparently refused to
allow the woman he claims to still be married to use of his
Internet account, and then when she got fined for broken tail
lights and failure to licence the family pets, he refused to
help her pay the fines and then after a decade, she was forced
to do community service.
The truth may be that Zepp has been lying about still being
married to her and instead, she left him for reasons Zepp doesn't
want to admit.

No, you've been too successful at smearing them while the true mental fuckwits like Pelosi and Biden get a pass, right along with the true corrupt lying criminals Hussein and Holder. Why don't you throw a party celebrating the success of your Goebbels MSM, you despicable and corrupt fascist cocksucker?
