So i was watching CSPAN online and after Obama thanked the reporters somebody yelled something I couldn't hear, Obama then said "That was a great question. But, it would be a horrible precedent for me to answer it after you yelled it out." No, Neil Munro of the Daily Caller didn't do it this time (remember him from Obama's Deferred Action presser?)

Presidents are always bombarded with shouted questions everywhere they go.
