Michelle Obama confronts protester, White House deletes exchange from transcript...

First lady Michelle Obama was met with a heckler Tuesday evening at a Democratic National Committee event in Washington, D.C.

A gay rights activist standing near the front of the audience began shouting for an executive order on gay rights, according to the White House pool report.

 The official White House transcript of the first lady’s remarks did not include the portion of the event during which Obama threatened to leave, it did include the protester’s remarks.

So here’s the thing — we cannot wait for the next presidential election to get fired up and ready to go.  We cannot wait.  Right now, today, we have an obligation to stand up for those kids.  And I don’t care what you believe in, we don’t –

MRS. OBAMA:  Wait, wait, wait.  One of the things –
AUDIENCE MEMBER:  (Inaudible.) 
MRS. OBAMA:  One of the things that I don’t do well is this.  (Applause.)  Do you understand?  (Applause.)  One of the things — now – 
(Inaudible audience interruption.)
     MRS. OBAMA:  So let me make the point that I was making before:  We are here for our kids.  (Applause.)  So we must recapture that passion, that same urgency and energy that we felt back in 2008 and 2012.  Understand this.  This is what I want you all to understand, this is not about us — no one back here.  It’s not about you or you, or your issue or your thing.  This is about our children.  (Applause.)
