re: #682 palomino

It’s a slightly less egregious example of the kind of disrespect that Joe “You Lie!” Wilson showed Obama.

Some people will think it makes Obama look weak to have someone (particularly a woman in the eyes of some) shake her finger at him, and then for him to not respond forcefully. But think of the alternative: Obama gets angry, points a finger back, and has a shouting match with her at the airport. That would look far worse. The base may eat up the blowhard antagonism of Gingrich or Christie, but it’s beneath the office of the president.

At least in that picture, someone said it above, he’s reacting like, “Ok, calm down, crazy lady.” He takes care of himself well so yea, he definitely wins.
