slapping Brokaw up the side of the head.
Brokaw: What can the Israelis learn from your visit to Buchenwald? And what should they be thinking about their treatment of Palestinians?
Obama: Well, look, there's no equivalency here.
Finally, a politician who does not automatically accept the premise of the question.

I just happened to be listening to Rush Limbaugh on the day this happened. He reflected your comments saying grudgingly that at least Obama was correct in refuting the premise of the question. Naturally he went on to excoriate the president regarding his comments regarding Israel during his Cairo speech, but I expect nothing less from him.
I haven't listen to Rush for a long time. Sometimes he takes on a Hannity type of stridency that is a big turn-off for me. He doesn't give Obama credit where credit due (although I strongly disagree with much of what Obama and the Dems are attempting).
I have had the same reaction when I have attempted to listen to Air America when driving in Oregon or California (it is not carried anywhere in Utah). I have often just turned it off and said, 'whatever'.
