Hey, what d’ya know? Little girl with question is daughter of big time Obama donor!
ByI was wondering how the White House chose who received a ticket to the New Hampshire town hall. Dear Leader’s town halls are so much more civil than his buddies in congress. Even those who “oppose” him are quieted with a wink a smile.
Via Michelle Malkin, the Boston Globe reports:
A girl from Malden asked President Obama a question at Tuesday’s town hall meeting in New Hampshire about the signs outside “saying mean things” about his health care proposal.
Eleven-year-old Julia Hall asked: “How do kids know what is true, and why do people want a new system that can — that help more of us?”
The question opened the door for the president to respond to what he called an “underlying fear” among the public “that people somehow won’t get the care they need.”
The girl later told the Globe that picking the president’s brain was “incredible.”
“It was like a once in a lifetime experience,” she said.
Julia’s mother was an early Obama supporter in Massachusetts during the presidential election, so she had previously met First Lady Michelle Obama, the Obama daughters Sasha and Malia, and Vice President Joe Biden.
“This was my first time meeting Barack Obama, and he’s a very nice man,” Julia said. “I’m glad I voted for him.”
She said Obama won a mock presidential election at the Cheverus School in 2008. And on Tuesday, he approached her after the town meeting.
“He said ‘great question,’” Julia said. “I shook his hand and got his picture.”
Kathleen Manning Hall, Julia’s mother, was shocked when her daughter said she wanted to ask a question. They wrote it down beforehand, and Julia didn’t miss a beat when Obama called on her.
“It was surreal,” said Manning Hall, a coordinator of Massachusetts Women for Obama during the election.
But there’s more. Kathleen Manning Hall donated thousands to the Obama campaign, as did her law firm.Follow the link above to Michelle Malkin’s post to see Manning Hall’s facebook photo.
But no, there were no plants in there. Really. And that little girl came up with her question all on her own.
How typical.
