Jim Moran’s town hall – an evening of disrespect

UPDATE: Wayne Tunick, the 27 year Navy veteran who Jim Moran told to sit down or leave his town hall, appeared on Fox News’s Fox & Friends on Saturday morning to discuss the incident. Video below; if you haven’t seen the original, it is also below.

UPDATE: Moran’s office issued the following statement – “In the exchange, the Congressman thanked the gentleman for his military service, but firmly made clear that with so many people in line waiting to ask their questions, the town hall meeting was not going to be disrupted by people speaking out of order.” There were no more than five or so people in line waiting. The veteran was called on by Moran, asked a legitimate question, and objected when Moran said it wasn’t legitimate. He was not speaking out of order.
