Just got home, worked late, didn't get a chance to watch the speech.

Listening on the radio... you guys had one of your CONGRESSMEN act like one of these drooling douchebags at the townhalls? In the halls of Congress? To the President of the United States?

Really? :shrug:

THIS is how you intend to return to power?

6. I replayed my DVR'd copy of the speech.
It's fun to watch Biden and Pelosi's reactions when the heckle was shouted out. Biden frowns and looks mad, like he wants to go over and throttle the guy, and Pelosi just opens her mouth in surprise and looks to see who it was. Both recover and ignore it from then on like true professionals.

Obama looks like he has an answer for the guy, but then decides to say nothing and just move along. This was, after all not a town hall meeting.

Barney Frank was right--the Republican party is being run by these loons.

9. I don't know if douchebag applies
In my definition, a douchebag is someone who acts like that but doesn't know any better. Once you realize your actions are wrong and you continue to do them, that makes you an asshole.

10. There is a definite difference
between douchebaggery and assholery, and knowing better is indeed the space between.

"Asshat" is the word that leaps to mind, personally. "Asshattery" is the phenomenon. Same diff. :)
