About group of about 50 protesters chanting, “We are the 99 percent!" halted Republican presidential contender Michele Bachmann’s speech this afternoon aboard the aircraft carrier Yorktown.
Bachmann, in town today to give a speech on foreign policy, reportedly left the stage mid-speech with a police escort due to the incessant chanting of the "Occupy Wall Street" protestors.
