Team Obama’s speedily-made, humourless reply to that secret Mitt Romney recording.

A pic taken yesterday in Cincinnati by Politico reporter Donovan Slack, originally (and gleefully) assumed by Fox News to be a man taking a whizz up the grassy knoll behind Obama, turns out to be a secret service agent on duty.
That’s how they stand, facing away from the president.
Handy enough if you get caught short.

I refuse to ask middle class families to give up their deductions for owning a home or raising their kids just to pay for another millionaire’s tax cut. I refuse to ask students to pay more for college; or kick children out of Head Start programs, to eliminate health insurance for millions of Americans who are poor, and elderly, or disabled, all so those with the most can pay less. I’m not going along with that. And I will—I will never turn Medicare into a voucher.

The Obama heckler from Friday.
Irish and well…
James Keaney writes:
Causing a bit of hoo-ha Stateside – a journalist from the conservative “Daily Caller” interrupts the President during his speech on ending the deportation of over a million undocumented youth. Ironically the journalist who interrupted and asked if the policy favoured “foreigners over Americans” is an Irishman and UCD alumunus Neil Munro.
Were you in UCD in the mid-90s?
Perhaps Neil heckled you too.
Leave details below
Meanwhile, Neil Munro interviewed by Sean Hannity on Fox News last night:

“You’ve got Robbie Keane. All-time scorer of the Irish international team…a cousin of mine… Robbie arrived [at LA Galaxy] halfway through last season scored his first goal in the first 21 minutes of his first game. His team mates were so happy to have him they filled his locker with what they call the ‘Pleasures of Ireland’. Guinness, Bailey’s and Irish Spring [a soap brand]. Hopefully Robbie’s broadened their horizons since then.”
Obama gives a shout-out (go to 1.29) to Robbie Keane during a visit by LA Galaxy to The White House yesterday.
