President Obama takes on a heckler in Israel

15. He handled him well?

While I applaud his ability to deflect the question and turn it into a joke, he never did address the question. Maybe he did as the video was cut short. But if not, I can't applaud that kind of politician double speak. He did the same thing with the question about marijuana laws during his first election run. Making a joke out of the question, instead of answering it. He's a master at it. I don't know much about that case the heckler wanted addressed, but Obama could have at least said something about the fact that he had nothing to do with the verdict and it was simply what the evidence had determined, and that the US like Israel, is a nation of laws, or some such a response couldn't he?
