Congressman Broun's secretary confirms that someone did indeed ask "Who is going to shoot Obama?"

Update: Broun’s press secretary, Jessica Morris, confirmed that the question was indeed, who is going to shoot Obama? “Obviously, the question was inappropriate, so Congressman Broun moved on,” she said.

Here was Broun’s response:

The thing is, I know there’s a lot of frustration with this president. We’re going to have an election next year. Hopefully, we’ll elect somebody that’s going to be a conservative, limited-government president that will take a smaller, who will sign a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.

He then segued into Republicans’ budget proposal.


So will there be outrage from the right? Will anybody be outraged the the good congressman chose to answer the question as opposed to asking security to remove the nut and those who applauded from the meeting?

1. If the question was inappropriate why didn't Broun say so?

Obviously, the questioner didn't agree.
