A VIEW FROM THE LEFT!...

Reading the Constitution Marred by Yelling Idiots

It sounded like a good idea. Turn on C-SPAN (live feed link). This is a reading of the US Constitution, uh ... well, the current Constitution, by the House GOP, which invited Democrats to join with them in reading aloud one of our founding documents. Clearly, they anticipated Democratic disinterest, given that this is an obvious pander to corral the Tea Party, which assumes none of the rest of us have a clue about the Constitution.
But in fact, this morning the Consitution reading was a bi-partisan affair.
But some of the GOPers, flush with new power, can't seem to rein in the disrespect for duly-elected Members of Congress from the other party. During Rep. Frank Pallone's reading, some asshat shouted:
Get Obama Out!
Also, during a reciting of the requirement that Presidents must be natural-born citizens, another jackwagon yelled out:
Not Obama!
I don't know if visitors in the Gallery or newly-elected Members did the yelling, because I'm listen-only. Anyone have any info?
