2. It's political protest,not disrespect.

[ZRT2209]

4. shouting down the first lady in someone's living room IS DISRESPECT

refusing to allow her to continue her speech after your point has been made 20 fucking times IS DISRESPECT

3. Surely a Whitehouse.Gov petition would have sufficed...

Errr...

Good on individuals with the courage to put politicians outside their comfort zone!

[ZRT2209]

5. oh yes! Good on Joe Wilson! Good on Jan Brewer! Racists and assholes unite!

[Earth_First]

8. Meh.

Sorry everything doesn't package nicely with a bow on top.

The GLBT community gets next to nothing from politicians...

...and you wonder why these individuals have to shout down their elected officials to be heard.

16. Michelle Obama isn't an elected official.

[Bluenorthwest]

6. LGBT people already get no support from you, that's why people have to shout about it

Legal to fire, legal to evict, to discriminate, this is the case in 29 States and under Federal Law. You nor FLOTUS ever say a thing about that. Ever.
The President also had to be shamed into saying even a few words of support. There are no tactics too aggressive when millions face injustice.
Precious entitled rich lady upset that she had to hear about how others are treated.

11. behaving like a rude asshole is SUCH A SMART STRATEGY

No wonder GetEqual is an epic fail. Idiots.

[FreeState]

13. No wonder the civil rights movement of the 60s was such a failure

all those uppity queers demanding their civil rights.

7. how bizarre you take it so personally. nt

9. Autumn Leaf (another protestor)

He said he was "disappointed" in Obama's reaction to Sturtz and surprised she "approached Ellen as aggressively as she did."

Seriously? She tries to shout down the first lady at a private function, and this loser thinks Mrs. Obama should have just smiled sweetly and yielded the floor? Mrs. Obama has the right to express herself, too, Mr. Leaf. Free speech isn't limited only to the loud and obnoxious.

10. I guess she expected FLOTUS to kiss her stupid, rude ass

[FreeState]

14. Demanding civil rights is never classes n/t

[uponit7771]

21. No, doing it in the most dickish way possible is

[MattBaggins]

19. Are you calling lesbians deviants?

[JaneyVee]

15. I agree. She isn't an elected official and receives no Govt salary. It's just rude.

And on top of that she was invited to speak.

[MattBaggins]

17. How dare the plebes approach a member of the royal court

Taking this a bit too far are we?

[uponit7771]

22. you forgot "...and be as regressive as possible..."
