MT @natsecHeather: speech doesn't seem to address how US sees its use of drones as precedent-setting for others 18:27:58
Trad war is not only altern to drone strikes. Other alternative is in some cases to do nothing. Intervention not always really necessary. 18:29:53
Missed the last 10 min of speech due to actual day job work meeting. Did I miss anything good? [Guess I'll watch vid and read trans later.] 18:41:40

MT @RyanLizza Apparently pple on twitter are watching this speech live rather than reading it. There was no heckler in the written remarks. 18:55:18
Actually pretty surprised security hasn't removed her yet. But O actually handling it OK so far. 18:56:11
RT @pbsgwen: "I'm going off script, as you might expect here." #heckler 18:56:30
Finally out I gather. Like O addressing her directly. 18:57:29
MT @ShawnaNBCNews: POTUS going off-script and says of heckler: "voice of that woman is worth paying attention too…these are tough issues." 18:58:07
MT @jeremyscahill: In disrupting O, @medeabenjamin asked POTUS a question no journ has: What about the killing of 16 yr old Abdulrahman?” 19:00:01

Finished the Isaacson Steve Jobs book. Took a lot longer than it would have otherwise because it was a big hardback, not Kindle. 19:27:42
Uh, hardcover. They don't say hardback, do they? 19:28:45

Re "media shield" laws: govt shouldn't be in the biz of deciding who is a journo. Quality may vary, but anybody can act in that capacity. 18:20:46
