"Mr. President: Over 4000 peaceful protesters have been arrested. While bankers continue to destroy the American economy. You must stop the assault on our 1st amendment rights. Your silence sends a message that police brutality is acceptable. Banks got bailed out. We got sold out."

Conspiracy theorists and plain ol ODS peeps particularly.

I was in Manchester today. right down front too. I thought it went down well. He paused the show and listened instead of putting a diaper on.
   There were a bunch of people around me who were laughing and chanting O-Ba-Ma ... It was funny. Unlike GOP gatherings those folks were treated as if they were expected. And before people were let in, Occupy NH was outside about 100 strong. And a man from the Organizers (I think, he had a New Hampshire accent) came out while we were talking and said. "You are invited to attend today's event. However due to limited space we can only accommodate 25 of you". The Democrats must have a bigger tent.

Do you mean did he respond? He mentioned their frustration during his speech mostly. He wasn't handed that note from the protester till he hit the crowd. He did speak to the two people that were handing him the note and we were about 10 feet away, so I couldn't hear what was said.
   I seriously doubt he could hear what they were saying coherently besides fragments, the room acoustics were terrible. My sister and I had the same trouble. I spoke to the guy I get tweets from in OccupyNH and he said that "It went better than I thought it would. And we'll have to wait and see what if anything he gets". Now I _don't_ know if he'd talked to that guy with the glasses of the black woman that actually got his ear for a while, so I can't say his statement was a specific reaction to their interaction with the president. This was mainly because we had raced up there to attend and had to run back to get my daughter at the end of the school day and it's almost and hour from Manchester to here. I'll tweet the guy and ask what he felt about it after the fact and let you know if he responds.

There MUST be a way to get your own program on the SciFi channel.
I'm thinking something you have first hand experience in like fallout from inbreeding maybe.

It was actually real nice... And I thought the kids and parents directly in front of us had fun with it, and their counter-chant and all.
    But Willbe's right... it should have been handled like Karl Rove did... Yell some "my poor right to lie" caterwauling followed by a couple of big fucks pushing the protesters around with maybe an underhand punch or two.
  That's the real way you show you're a real American... To have a conniption fit and fill your diaper right up with a stinky one.

Couple of years ago,he said of the Ts that he understood their frustration and didn`t attack them.

Classy and calm.

I think that any politician that doesn't start concerning themselves with REAL FUCKING MIDDLE CLASS CONCERNS, is going to find themselves WAY out in the weeds. They're sick of hearing the last groans of Reaganomics repackaged as the Neo-Deal. It's a complete hallucination that's fueling it. Take for example Willbe's 2/3 of the country. Here's that 2/3 a couple hundred miles from his door the monday after a dozen or so kids got pepper sprayed by campus cops while peacefully awaiting their arrest. Yep, sure looks like your typical voicing of disapproval towards OWS....

Chris tweeted back saying his friend "presented his copy of the script they read and the President said he's impressed with the endurance of the movement"

This guy can be 'of few words' if you catch my drift. I'm also pinging Nancy fro Occupy Portsmouth... because they were standing face to face for almost a minute.
