From the online magazine Salon, this headline previewing the president’s town hall meeting in New Hampshire:
OBAMA’S LIKELY HECKLERS
At his Tuesday town hall, he’ll have rowdy tea-partiers, Glenn Beck acolytes, birther admirers and an ex-aide to Abramoff-connected Rep. Bob Ney
Oops. Better take that one back to the headline shop. Whatever else you want to say about the town hall, it is undeniable that the participants, including those who asked mildly skeptical questions, were perfectly well behaved. There were no incidents of any kind. People are usually on their best behavior in the presence of the president, and that’s a good thing, no matter how contentious the issue involved.
