President Barack Obama's solemn remarks on drones and counterterrorism were interrupted at length Thursday by a protester who loudly advocated for the closure of the Guantanamo Bay prison – the same position Obama was stressing in his speech.
The woman shouting was identified as peace activist Medea Benjamin of the group Code Pink, whose members have been loudly interrupting congressional hearings and official speeches for years.
It's nice to see that after she protested he directly answered her question and even let her finish. http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2013/05/23/obama-heckled-by-code-pink-leader/?hpt=hp_t3
