LOL. Anyone watching the Obama townhall? Guy asks Obama if he has any close Jewish friends
and his question was super long. He ended up getting booed near the end of his question.

3. The whole "friends" thing is a strawman anyway
most people have a small circle of FRIENDS, but that should have NO bearing on their feelings & thoughts about others.. I have no Burmese friends, but my heart aches for their traumas..

9. Did you watch it? Were they booing the question or the answer?
Guessing is fine, I suppose, just let us know.

10. First the questioner started rattling off some Islamic sounding names
of people who were allegedly close to Obama and anti-Israel.

Then he basically asked--you know a lot of anti-semitic people, but do you and Michelle have any close relationships with Jewish people?

Barack answered it really well. I'm sure the video will be up soon. It's still streaming live on cnn.com.

11. The guy was going on and on and on before he would even get to the question, people were tired of
