‘You Had Your Turn Madam’: See Romney’s Testy Exchange at a NH Town Hall

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is drawing some attention after he got into a heated discussion during a town hall, at times holding his hand up and raising his voice to insist he be allowed to answer a woman’s questions.

It happened Wednesday in New Hampshire when an audience member pressed the former Massachusetts governor about his support for “cut, cap and balance,” telling him, “I wish you would speak the truth rather than say something you think is a platitude, when in fact we do need the government to spend money.”

The woman repeatedly talked over Romney, prompting him to ask “Do you have a question? Do you have a question and let me answer it” and later say, “You had your turn madam, now let me have mine. … Just hold on a moment. Just hold on.”

Watch the clip below, via CNN:

Meanwhile, former Obama spokesman Bill Burton lashed out at Romney Thursday for the exchange. Burton, a former deputy White House spokesman and current senior strategist for Democratic “super-PAC” Priorities USA Action, said the candidate has “no core principles.”

“Candidates can get testy when they have to defend their core weaknesses and for Mitt Romney, it’s that he has no core principles and shifts positions depending on what office he is seeking,” Burton told Mediaite.

This isn‘t the first time this month Romney’s been at the center of a rowdy voters: An angry crowd shouted him down at one point during a speech at the Iowa State Fair.

    I disagree with those that said the woman should shut up. Even if I disagree, everyone has the right to have an opinion. The mentality of “if you don’t think like me, then you must be silenced” is absurd! What are we? The media? Come on people, let’s not get down to their level.

    What upsets me is the Ron Paul doesn’t have as much coverage, he is the only one (the reason he appears to be crazy) that has 100% clean voting records and that is not part of the establishment. He is for the constitution of the US.

      Did I misinterpret the article? It seemed to me that Romney wanted to be allowed to answer her question, not that he didn’t want her to speak. I’m no Romney fan, but if I am correct in my interpretation, I don’t think he is at fault. He didn’t call the lady nasty names or tell her to go to hell.

      It’s not that she should shut-up but let the man answer her question. It is like the hecklers are the Iowa Fair, he wanted them to speak, all three of them, yes there was one you never saw, unless you watched the whole speech. He wanted them to speak but stop talking so he can answer. That is how it works.

      What upsets me is people like you, who have an agenda, and don’t address the issue at hand. What is done here was that the woman who was an obvious Lib wouldn’t let Romney speak. She just kept mouthign off and wanted to try to make him look bad. Also to get him angry, hoping he would explode, and she get her 15 minutes of fame.

      It is pathetic that the Left has to resort to such tactics.

      Everyone should be heard however say what you need to then listen this goes for everyone. Talk listen talk listen it’s not that hard.

      My only problems with Ron Paul are 1st and most importantly his Isolationist views there was a reason that the founders leaned more that way. There was a ocean between us as long as you kept somewhat aware of what was going on in the world it wasn’t a fear. Even with that Isolation they still sent many diplomats to other Country’s to learn and keep an eye out. We now live in a time people can launch attacks in moments Israel is the only thing holding back much of the destruction that not only comes from radicals but many of those who secretly oppose freedom.

      The second problem I have is timeline it seems that Ron Paul wants to change too much too fast there are things that we can pull off quickly like a Band-Aid such as pulling our troops and putting them some place more important like our border. Most items like the tax code is more like recovering from serious injury with lots of small steps like required in physical therapy. He doesnt seem to get that.

Those are the qualities we need in a leader as opposed to yelling and angry. His honorable demeanor will bring back national as well as world wide respect for our President and this country. We do not need a six gun image. We need a focused and consistent leader who is calm under pressure and firm in his message. Mitt is a gentleman.”

      @CCR,

      Awesome post. The truth is that Mitt Romney brings the most needed experience, leadership and demeanor to the Presidential office than anyone else in our country’s history. He has been fully vetted and Obama wants to face anyone else but Mitt and the lamestream media hopes the GOP chooses anyone else but Mitt. Who they really want is Rick Perry and have largely withheld their scrutiny of Perry as they have tons of stuff on him but want him to get the nomination so they are holding back as much as they are able but are chomping at the bit for that day when they can open up on Perry and totally destroy him to get Obama back in office. Do not be fooled or blinded by Rick Perry he has more baggage and areas of attack than all of the other GOP candidates or potential candidates combined. Just start doing research on him and you will see, I guarantee it.

    Also those of you bringing up Romney’s GW stance..go back and see what he actually said…he thought man may contribute to it but does not know how much?? As a strong conservative I don’t believe we do but possibly man does contribute all of 1% and maybe that is what Romney is referring to…

    At least here in this campaign he is fighting and I think he should keep his focus on Obama and not worry about what Perry or Bachmann are doing.

      First, it is not wise, as a household, to borrow a lot of money. This can set you up to get burned, and this happens, unfortunately. Those that were the most overextended were the ones most hurt by the housing crisis.

      Second, monetizing the debt allows for unlimited borrowing. Households can not borrow as much as they want.

      Third, households are less likely to be able to borrow more money if they have trouble paying off what has already been borrowed. They can not go to there bank and expect to take out another mortgage to buy a second house when they are already having trouble paying for the first house.

      Fourth, the problem is more than just borrowing money. It is how the money is inefficiently spent. Yes, businesses do borrow money, but they then either succeed and pay back their loans or they fail and close. They do not perpetuate ineffective policy – they just fail, and try again or try something else.

      Fifth, the argument is even more involved. Please pick up a book by Hayek, Mises, Sowell AND also pick up a book by their idealogical opponents, but consider the deeper philosophical ideas.

      The government is not the answer. No one knows how to serve your neighbor better than you; you are the answer. The government would have us believe they are intellectually and morally superior to us. This is the only facade which keeps people dependent -the government serves or assists us, meaning individuals are the primary source of positive action (&respo

      @johnniefrench, Really? And what happens then they owe more than they take in? Too many lose their homes because it costs more than they make. Too many have way too expensive cars, so they end up losing them. Some run their credit cards up so high, keeping up with the Jones. I call these people stupid. They have no idea how to live within their means and want to blame the rest of us for their sorrows. The United States has to live within it’s means as many of us already do, to stay viable. We can’t just keep borrowing unless we take in enough to pay our bills.

      Some of you people have no idea how to live within your means for one reason or another. I don‘t want our Country owing China more than we can pay back withing several years and keep a balanced budget It’s time to stop investigating the sex life of a chi-chi fly at millions of dollars and all the rest of things that do nothing to insure a better life for us. We need, no they should hire me to cut the budget for stupid things congress votes on that keep us in a hole (remember the bridge to nowhere?) These stupid things are costly and hurt our country.

      Before Bill Clinton decided people should be able to borrow on the same principle as government, you had to qualify for a home loan. What happened when millions of people were given home loans they couldn’t afford? The recession happened you idiot! Millions of people have loans for: homes, cars, 2nd homes, boats, college, etc. and pay those loans on time and eventually back – because they had to qualify for them! However, the government doesn’t have to qualify for any loan, they either print more money, or borrow it, regardless if they don’t have the ability to pay it back. Can you say Greece? It’s called insolvency, and that’s where we are headed as a country.

If we don’t make our monthly payments we go bankrupt. If I make $1000/ mo and my car payment is 500, mortgage is 700 and bills are 300 I can’t just keep a running tab with the bank. Ok bank, you go ahead and make these payments and someday, hopefully, I’ll pay you back. I realize I’m adding $500/ to my tab, but hey, if I get too far behind I’ll just borrow more from ya!!

      What a weak argument. The government has borrowed so much money it would be like saying they have borrowed for a mortgage, car, water bill, utilities, cell phones, and cable. Then they have borred enough for my grandsons house, car and bills. Then they want to get more credit cards so they can use them to pay the interest on the credit cards they already have! A family household that is wise has zero debt but if they do they budget a way to pay it off in a timely manner so they are at a low risk of default. The government has not done this from Clinton to Bush to triple debtor Obama! Debt creates liability and with China being our Bank our liability is huge! Wake the hell up folks!

When a household starts to borrow money just to pay the interest on another loan then that household is bankrupt. A balanced budget means that your income is enough to meet your monthly obligations, even if one of those obligations is a home loan.

      I may have a mortgage and a car payment, but I pay them every month and it goes down, not borrow more and my debt goes up with no hope of paying it off in my lifetime. I figure out how much my monthly payments are (or yearly for my car insurance) and divide it to figure out how much I need to put away each week to pay it when it comes due. I don’t go, oops, bills are due, guess I’ll put it on Discover and forget about it, they’ll just up my credit when the card gets full. I also put almost everything on Discover, for the 1% back, and then PAY IT OFF EVERY MONTH so that I DON’T have a credit card bill. Yes, some of us work within a budget.

They told me they would approve a loan for a house worth $134,000. I bought a house for $98,000. We live in Texas and it is a nice house. 1552 sq foot, 3 bedroom, 2 bath. I am affording it. But if I had listened to the bank, I would be HURTING. Government is the problem….it’s like being told you can afford a house for $134,000 and then going out and buying one for $200,000 and just borrowing the amount every month to make the payment.

    Seems he was trying to express his core principles, but as all loud mouth Liberal bullies, they can’t shut up to hear an answer. If I was Romney, I would have looked at her straight away and say, “Obviously you don’t want to hear my answer, so I will move on.. Next question please. If she would not shut up, I would have her escorted out of the room until she could conduct herself like the adult she pretends to be.

      COFEMALE nailed it. She didn’t want to hear his answer; she just wanted to make a scene. Too many libs FEEL they’re right so when they run up against a logical, fact based argument they just try and drown out the other side with mindless blather. That’s what weak minds with weak arguments do.
      Libs are too much, “I feel…” instead of “I know, based on the facts….”

      She’s right – the gov’t needs to spend money; a limited amount on essential things! Our gov‘t can’t keep spending unlimited amounts on unnecessary programs. That’s why we need to cut out wasteful/unnecessary spending (CUT), limit spending on the things we do spend money on (CAP), and get to a point where we stop spending more than we take in (BALANCE). That‘s what we have to do with our home budgets and that’s what 48 of 50 states do every year because they require a balanced budget. The libs can’t see that because they FEEL its nice (patriotic) taking from those that have earned it and then giving it to those who haven’t, no matter how much proof there is that it doesn’t improve things. It only treats the symptoms not the actual cause of the problem.

      Entitlement programs were designed as temporary or partial assistance – to give folks a lift up, not a way of life; to get them back on their feet, not keep them off their feet. If our spending stays this way, soon we won’t be able to do the temporary/partial. Cut/Cap/Balance stops the bleeding before we hemorrhage our future. (A

      I think it’s unfair to make that statement. What he said was this. ” I think that there is evidence the climate is changing, and man has contributed to that a bit. How much? I don’t know.”

      If you take that statement at its value, he is not saying at all that man is causing climate change. Is the Climate changing? yes, it is. But it is ALWAYS changing.

      In this upcoming election it had better be about more than just voting the lesser of two evils into the office of the presidency. It is time to turn this mess around and fundamentally restore America back to what it was intended to be. “No great civilization has ever been defeated from without, until It’s destroyed itself from within” Will D.

      Not Global warming Global climate change. There are some studies that show the climate is getting colder. In any event, the issue is not climate change the issue is whether these changes are man made or natural cycles. I submit they are cycles of change that the planet has been going through for over 4 billion years.

      The only way I will vote for Romney is when and if he ever says he made a mistake with Romney care in Massachusetts which effectively a mini version of Obama care. If he continues to not admit this was a mistake I will never consider him for office. Romney is a Progressive lite but still a lefty.

      DON’T WORRY ABOUT ROMNEY SUPPORTING GLOBAL WARMING… HE DOESN’T…

      He doesn’t believe in man-made global warming, he has said the same thing multiple time. What he has said is HE DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT THE SCIENCE, he believes that humans do impact their environment but how much he doesn’t know, look at the clip again: http://www.americanparchment.com/video/2011/may/romney_climate_change.html.

      But he has always fought the EPA: http://www.americanparchment.com/video/2011/july/romney_stop_epa.html

      And as for carbon caps he was okay with a regional program while they were developing it, but got out after reading it in 2005, before they could implement it.

    It’s almost constant, now. CNN/MSNBC’s “Operation: Kill Romney” is in full forward motion. These type of moments are so easily sound-clipped and can be utilized to feed the liberal bias media-machine. Don‘t let ’em talk, and they have to get testy. It’s their formula.

    THAT WAS A GREAT TOWN HALL FOR HIM… BUT THERE’S MORE…

    During this town hall he speaks out that the Republicans in Congress are negotiating too much with the Dems: http://url2it.com/hbij

    Then he went farther to say: “Who Told You Republicans Want to Cut Social Security”… they’re lying: http://url2it.com/hbik

    COULD ROMNEY BE GETTING MORE AGGRESSIVE IN HIS CAMPAIGNING.

      New Hampshire has changed over the past few decades — liberals moved there from Massachusetts to get away from the Massachusetts mess. Then, they set about making NH to be like Mass. Same thing as Californians moving to Nevada, Utah and Idaho.

      First of all DTOM… I agree with you…. “MOVE” coverage of Ron Paul. Get it out of here! Ron Paul is SO right on many issues… But SO wrong on many as well… Tired of the Libertarians thinking they can out Conservative…Conservatives… On the Military, their heads are buried in the sand. That’s the purpose of me posting under your remarks.. :)

      Now for what I REALLY wanted to say… Romney had a perfect response to this little lefty. It’s SMALL of any liberal to make more of this than what it is..and that is a little lefty making a goo-tongued slotbucket of herself. Romney will make a fine President and I WILL vote for him IF he wins the nomination. I will probably not vote for him in the Primaries… Ron Paul is SO right on many issues… But SO wrong on many as well… Tired of the Libertarians thinking they can out Conservative…Conservatives… On the Military, their heads are buried in the sand.

      More* I know that was so hard for you to understand that type-o. If you believe in the “normal” conservative military policy then you are a part of the neo-con, conqueror, line of thinking. This is not part of our Constitution which is to have no permanent standing army. Do you even know that or why? Do you know how long an army is to be financed or raised?(yes, a RAISED army) There is a reason for all of this, however reason seems to fall second to your “logic”.

      Nobody is trying to out-conservative you sheeple. And apparently you and a few others have learned the word libertarian and throw that around in the pejorative. (How left of you.) Constitutionalists don’t measure themselves against you… how self-centered. You’ll be one of the first to go.

Let’s just tear apart our military and make ourselves even more susceptible to the tyrants of the world. What‘s the difference between your military policies and Obama’s??? NOTHING!
