There's no way he could have hoped to look reasonable by stopping the guy speaking, he doesn't deserve any credit for something he didn't have any real choice in doing.
He was used. I'd be willing to bet they let him in for the very purpose of having bush's retorts be completely overwhelming in having everyone else clap and cheer for Bush, while having boos and jeers thrown towards the criticism. Without a fair audience it emboldens Bush's stances in the broadcast.
And I wouldn't say Bush answered, so much as completely rewrote the guy's question and replied with a talking point. lol
That's what being a politician is all about.
That's the fucking problem now, isn't it?
Bunch of goddamn sheep in that audience.
I think the best example of Bush getting put in his place so to speak was the time he was asked about what regrets he had in his decisions since the start of his administration.

We've learned time and time again that the president doesn't have to look reasonable.

Yea, Bush overwhelmed him with his responses.
Not necessarily bush himself, but the reaction from the crowd as well.
