A funny thing happened at a campaign rally Obama attended yesterday – audience members got up and left while he was speaking! And these weren’t just average Americans fed up with the president, these were hardcore Democrats at an event for Maryland Lieutenant Governor Anthony Brown held just outside DC!
President Barack Obama made a rare appearance on the campaign trail on Sunday with a rally to support the Democratic candidate for governor in Maryland, but early departures of crowd members while he spoke underscored his continuing unpopularity. …
A steady stream of people walked out of the auditorium while he spoke, however, and a heckler interrupted his remarks.
Press live tweeting the rally reported it first:

Steady stream of people leaving Maryland rally continues as Obama speaks. It's noticeable and noisy. They would have waited hours to get in.

Pool: "by the time [Obama] was about 10 minutes in, there was a traffic jam next to the pool's tables as folks tried to exit the gym. "

The media covering the event were shocked:
RT @jeffmason1: @ZekeJMiller lots of folks leaving the rally with Obama at the stage. It's weird.

After waiting a long time for a POTUS speech, don't you want to hear the whole thing? And not just take a phone pic or two and then leave?

Reporters tweeted photos of audience members leaving:

Democrats were trying to spin it saying that the people who left were from an overflow room where Obama had spoken earlier, except with the pictures and tweets that story doesn’t hold up:
@ErinatTheSun @LewisYv the people who were leaving were in the main room, not the overflow, so this doens't make sense

This does not bode well for Obama and Democrats on November 4th – but don’t forget to get out and vote!
There is no respect for a lawless scumbag!! As for his democratic party they are no better then he is. His administration is full of lies and scandal. I am ashamed of all of them. Please feel free to explain how he respects the office of President of the United States of America or its people!!! He has proven his loyalty is for the muslims and the illegal aliens he plans on giving a free ride. I cannot wait to vote the scumbags who stand by and let him break our laws out November the 4th. I have no respect for obola liar in chief or his party . How can you respect a lying lawless coward?? Obola and his party are traitors to our military and our country!!! May they get what’s coming on November 4th! ! Start lookin for jobs your free rides are soon over!!!

For the Obama worshippers the gild is off the lily. . They woke up to the lies and conniving schemes that the fraud Obama has put forth . Finally the truth is being revealed.
Perfect, I would have loved to have participated in this. It somewhat restores my faith in my fellow citizenry!
You really believe that you need to use that kind of language? Anyone with a quarter of a brain will write you off .
I disagree with the President on eveverything.
An intelligent rebuttal will get you a lot further that a sick rant.
Obama’s White House is so corrupt it should be illegal, The lies the money spent to keep the press in line and I could go on and on. He is a Traitor and I think people are tired of his lawlessness and his attitude toward everything the people of the United States want. He is supposed to be for all the people of this country and he only cares for the Muslims, here and abroad! We need to get him out of the White House! He needs to be Impeached!
Karen you are correct.
Even though I haven’t been fond of the recent Democratic Presidents, I still respect the office of POTUS. I grew up having been taught to address the President as “Mr. President” or “President Last Name”. Nowadays I hear the last name of the President being thrown around flippantly without regard to their position as Commander In Chief over our military forces so that our great nation can sleep at night. As a Republican, I would not have been at the Maryland rally. As a Republican, I will not speculate as to how I might have reacted to President Obama’s talk. Here’s what I can say: I am a Jesus believing and following Christian. I pray the God of the Bible spares our nation from heavy rebuking so that we can repent from our arrogant ways and turn to Him; to be on our knees and humbly ask for forgiveness; and to seek wisdom on how to move forward as evil seeks to destroy the world. Our vote counts in this country. I haven’t missed an election since I was eighteen and I don’t ever plan on missing one. It’s my right and I’m exercising it!!

Beautiful comments, I agree.
True AMERICANS left Obama a long time ago. Now those seeing clearly his deceptions and manipulation bringing the United States down are all leaving too. LIES AND CORRUPTION rears its head in time. Some realize it and others catch up. Obama is the worst President ever elected and now AMERICA A WHOLE WANTS HIS RESIGNATION AND THOSE DEMOCRATS WITH HIM DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY. America walk out every time he shows up and this will let him know we do not want you at our White House representing our nation. NOVEMBER 4TH VOTE OUT THE DEMOCRATS and then America we stop Obama from all his devastation and deceiving us. Anti-America is his legacy and forever will be his history. Vote out democrat Harry Reid and all the others from our Senate. TIME FOR AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.
True Americans never supported him in the first place. Not because he is Black. Because he is a totally inexperienced neophyte community organizer who hasn’t a clue what he is doing.
Are these the same people that voted for our current President? I bet that most of them are? If we are going by the pictures a good many that attended are black. How could so may walk out on a person that an overwhelming majority of these same people voted for? No loyalty, what a disgrace!
LOVE it!!! the entire room should have left!!!!
They were just making room for the illegal aliens to have a good look at who let them into our country…,
These FORMER Democrat VOTERS were simply leaving in order to make their seats available for Obama’s new constituency – his “Dreamers”.
Wow, all those BLACK people are racists and don’t like Obama because he’s Black! LOL this is the headlines for MSNBC, CNN, Al Sharpton, etc…
those Democrats are racists….Maryland is now keyword for racist…according to Chris Mathews
Ah yes – there it is. Was wondering why it took so many comments before someone pulled the race card. Good ole stand-by. LOL. Had I been there – I would have left too! And I am not a racist – but I really don’t give a damn if you want to call me one. LOL.
I am not racist either. However, it does not take a valedictorian to realize that BHO, Holder, Jarrett, and Rohm Emmanuel among other white House staff are the very definition of radical racism!
Stop On, Gordon!
Show some respect, regardless of your political affiliations. If you attend…expect to stay through to the end. Those who walked out had premeditated intent. How rude and classless of them!
Guess you are enjoying the Obamanation of the USA!
Nothing wrong with sending a message to the communist democrats. Get out!
Those who walked out were democrat..It looks like they’re feed up with his lies also

Normally I would agree with you. Could it be that these people felt that this was the only way their voices would be heard? I am all about proper manners. However, when people become desperate or disgusted, this might be, in their opinions, the only way possible to be listened to. Sad days for our country. I personally would not have been there in the first place.
Jason, “…rude and classless…applies to BHO. He is disrespectful of the Constitution and lacks leadership qualities too. Maybe the koolade you are drinking numbs you to reality.
OVOMIT needs to show some RESPECT to Americans and protect us from ISIS and EBOLA which he is not doing. I would walk out too!!!!!
Well, I’d say it’s one of the easiest and safest ways to show ones discontent, publically. We wouldn’t want a Ferguson MO type response. And I guess that a number of them had voted for him. Though I would agree with your concern for respect. But he apparently has lost any respect these folks might have ever had for him! And I personally I think he has don’t very little to deserve respect. At some point, simply holding a otherwise dignified office, is not enough. For me this is a about as classy as one can get, to demonstrate such discontent!! It speaks volumes about their perspective of him. Now the Hecklers, … not so much!
Jason , Obama the liar does not deserve respect. He has maneuvered and manipulated the American tax payers ever since he was elected. His fan club of blacks and progressive democrats have finally awaken to his deceitful ways,
.
.
Jason,Have you ever heard the saying,one has to earn respect? The only thing Obama has earned is a 4X8 jail cell.
No Jason, they were letting the Liar in Chief know his lies & BS won’t be tolerated any longer. It is our right as a still for now free country. Not rude or classless, it is our right.
those who walked out, were true americans, and and too proud to listen to that muslim traitor
Thank u im so happy that some one makeing since…. That
Poor guy is doing what he feel is best and doing it with great pride and reason itsbabout time that we dont have a puppet president that does what ever the hell all his buddy’s want and think it is good for them. …. oboma is a leader and is strong. So back off of Obama how dare u all disrespect him
Its about damn time the sheep wake up !!!
