He said firmly: “You know what? No, no, no,” saying that he could either stay and be quiet or they have to take him out.

Obama further quipped: “You’re in my house…It’s not respectful when you get invited to somebody…you’ll not get a good response from me by interrupting me like this. I’m sorry…”

“As a general rule, I am just fine with a few hecklers, but not when I’m up in the [White] House. My attitude is, if you’re eating the hors d’oeuvres…you know what I’m saying and drinking the booze…”

“Can we escort this person out…?”

The crowd cheered the president on, chanting his name.
