And one can only imagine how that would play in the perennial racist strongholds of western PA, etc.

He only mouthed the last few words of the most famous lines in the song, but he swayed and drummed his fingers on his heart all the way through.

Along with many other Orange Actions which would have gotten the Obamas into tons of negative media coverage.

Obama got away with nothing.

Dems need to be more mean to scare them, if nothing else. But we're not good at it.

that he was glancing at the teleprompter and stopped when he came to the word o'er. I think it hung him up.

Am I remembering correctly?

Trump and W. Bush, the both, pumped up on drugs, apparently. Is there any other explanation? Is this how anyone behaves at a memorial service?

And, no, no sane person would behave that way at any sort of solemn occasion.

To think that Barack Obama's presidential portrait will be flanked on one side by Shrub and on the other by TRumplethinskin is just infuriating.

If a president is convicted of commiting a crime, his portrait should not get put up, IMO.
