President Obama went to Connecticut today to stump for Rick Blumenthal (who is running against Republican Linda McMahon to replace the retiring Chris Dodd). His speech was delayed at one point for about three minutes by hecklers.There's video at the link. Obama said something stupid about Democrats funding AIDS research while the GOP does nothing, completely ignoring the 1.5 million people that were saved by George Bush's AIDS efforts in Africa.
There were two different groups protesting. One obviously protesting the President’s handling of AIDS funding, but the President at one point turns to another group and seems to indicate that their protest was on another topic.
With Obama it's always about him.
