    I'm not sure what you are talking about. He wanted to talk to Obama. And the staff was clearly trying to block his shot.

    He was an idiot for losing temper though.

    in a court of law grabbing and shoving someone w/ both arms could be considered assault.

    id go for the $$$! loofa-boy already has experience w/ out of court settlements.

    and i never said s.s. made a big deal of it - but they did tell him to back off, which is pretty funny.

    Ya, he saved GW's live! If he wasn't so fortunate as to break the curse. I am sure GW would have followed the twenty year cycle going back to Lincoln!

    But he was shot by a lunatic and not for his political views or his race? At least that's how I remember it.

    Good point. Careful as Deckard will object to him being referred to as a "right winger".
    Let's agree to call him of the "conservative persuasion". ;)

    Are you honestly saying that Lee Harvey Oswald and James Earl Ray weren't lunatics?!?

    And yes, Reagan was shot for his political views, as well.

    Is the Nation of Islam a bunch of lunatics for assassinating Malcom X?

    Do you think Bill would have aired a segment of him shaking Obama's hand without the drama?

    I don't know. Maybe though. He actually is very complimentary of Obama and used that segment to then show Hillary's campaign refusing to talking to reporters and he contrasted that.

    Actually, O'Reilly said more than a couple times that Obama was a gentleman, and that the Secret Service did their job. He was mainly b****ing (rightfully) about the dude that kept purposefully blocking the camera.
