Dems Boo After Rep. Boebert Shouts at Biden DURING SOTU - You Put Our Service Members in Coffins

Rep. Lauren Boebert Erupts At Biden’s SOTU

 Western Journal   "Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado briefly interrupted President Joe Biden during Tuesday’s State of the Union address.

"Biden had brought up supporting veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan who have been dying from injuries sustained from their service.

"As Biden referenced deceased service members being in flag-draped coffins, Boebert exclaimed “13 of them,” in a criticism of Biden’s handling of the Hamid Karzai International Airport operation.". . .

 Boebert could face formal condemnation for the outburst.  In 2009, Rep. Joe Wilson yelled out, “You Lie!” during President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address after Obama said that his healthcare reform plan would not insure illegal immigrants. The House then passed a "resolution of disapproval" about his remarks.

 Nancy Pelosi sparks new SOTU meme during Biden ‘burn pits’ moment (nypost.com)  . . . .As the president delivered his remark, Pelosi was seen standing up behind him, grinning and rubbing her knuckles together as if pulling back an ill-timed clap.                                            "Many social media users spotted the odd response to the serious remarks, with some even questioning if the speaker was intoxicated. Others simply labeled it “weird.'” . . .

Whoopi Goldberg Enters Orbit Over Lauren Boebert Heckling Joe Biden – RedState  . . ." Let’s recall that he’s trashed Republicans as racist supporters of Jim Crow because they dared to support voter ID. When you demonize people in such a disgusting way, you are not then owed respect in return. I don’t care what office you hold.". . .

"Goldberg asks of Boebert, “Who the hell do you think you are?” The answer is that Boebert is an American with the right to free speech. That right extends to heckling the president, regardless of whether one believes it was appropriate or not. It’s one thing to say Boebert shouldn’t have done it. It’s another to suggest she doesn’t have the status to question the president. That’s not how any of this works. Biden serves at the pleasure of the nation’s citizenry, for better or worse. He is not a king, and Goldberg is the last person who should be criticizing others about being disrespectful."
