It was "completely inappropriate" for Fox News anchor Bill O'Reilly to ask President Obama about the people who "hate" him, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Monday.
Pelosi said O'Reilly's question, during an interview before Sunday's Super Bowl, made her wince upon hearing it again on Monday.
"Just seeing it again ... I thought was a completely inappropriate question, of course beautifully handled by the president," Pelosi told host Gayle King on the Oprah Radio network.
"To hear this used in the presence of the president of the United States — I think we all have to recognize that while we disagree with people, and may think that they are wrong," the word "hate" should never be used, Pelosi said.
O'Reilly's question has been one of the most replayed on Monday.
"Does it disturb you that so many people hate you?" O'Reilly asked Obama.
"The people who dislike you don't know you," Obama responded. "The folks who hate you don't know you; what they hate is whatever funhouse mirror image of you is out there."
The interview was a coup for the Fox host and his network, which has sparred sometimes with the Obama administration and earned public enmity from the president at times during the last two years.
Obama's interview, broadcast on Fox, was his third straight year of doing a pre-Super Bowl interview. He sat for an interview with CBS last year, and NBC the year before that.
Pelosi said it was her preference that the word "hate" never be used in a political context.

Pelosi: O'Reilly question to Obama on hate 'completely inappropriate'
Okay Pelosi, WE HATE YOU!!!
"To hear this used in the presence of the president of the United States — I think we all have to recognize that while we disagree with people, and may think that they are wrong," the word "hate" should never be used, Pelosi said.I swear, when I read this line I had to look up at the top of the article to see whether or not this was semi-satire from John Semmens. Amazingly, it's not.
John, reality has finally caught up with you. That piglosi could say this with a straight face, after participating for 8 solid years in a non-stop hate-Bush marathon, out-does anything you could ever post on your blog.
Utterly and totally amazing.
I think you should publish an open letter to piglosi saying that she wins. She has out-caricaturized any possible caricature of the left.

Captive audience comes to mind.

Captive only if someone had stolen your remote and tied you to your chair. We didn’t allow ourselves to be forced to watch those two titanic egos.
Was she vaklempt ??
This means he was provided with all the questions quite some time before.

I am sure of it.
Well it disturbs me that Obama hates so many people...Americans...and anyone that disagrees with him.
Her face cracked in three places and had to be puttied.
I know everyone cares what Pelosi thinks. /s
Only in your botox damaged brain bitch!
LLS
Did anyone watch the interview?
When I heard about the question about people hating Obama, I told my husband that if I were Obama, I would have turned it around and asked the same of O’Reilly.

Fourth Grader Asks Obama, “Why Do People Hate You”

President Obama, like any other President, has his fair share of critics. Even fourth-graders have noticed.
“Why do people hate you?”, a fourth-grade boy asked Obama at a town hall event in New Orleans today.

“Mr. President, if I could ask you, with thousands on the street...marching today here in London, a free nation, what is your conclusion as to why apparently so many free citizens fear you and even hate you?”

. . . and I’m not a racist ,,,, I hate his white half also !!!!
He asked the same thing of Bush. I don’t remember any wincing.
Pelosi should never be in a political context...
Either way, I dislike listening to the style of speech the filthy smoker uses. The super hissy “s” he uses grates and grates.....
I, for one, was glad to hear O’Reilly ‘poke’ at the pres. with his questions - of course the interview was going NOWHERE but at least the questions/allegations were presented.
I hate Pelosi.
