I wonder if we'll see this story on the nightly news ?

 

Did you see the little girl that asked a question for Obama at his own town hall? Her mom is an avid obama supporter.

Who's going to ask the questions they want asked, if they don't do it themselves?

 

kind of goes with the program. obama is an imposter. he is portraying himself as a concerned american. i dont think he is either, concerned about america or an american.

i cant help thinking about a movie i saw a while back, "the manchurian canidate". in obamas case i think they took out the brain and put in a device that only can respond to a telepromter.

 

Is it really any different than the other side getting people to go out and purposely yell, and scream, and shout at the town hall forums? Both sides are playing dirty in my opinion.

 

Yeah, it is. The Republican party isn't behind the people that are pissed about socialized health care.

The lazy people in America that want this are too ignorant to realize that once it is passed, all that is needed to de-value the aged are policy changes.

 

You really need to go to a meeting and talk to these people, I don't care what CNN or MSNBC says they are not being organized by the GOP or anyone. We are genuinely pissed off and tired of being lied to and forced into things we don't want by Democrats and Republicans. It is time for real change in this country and it starts with removing anyone that is in office at this time. No one that currently holds an elected office should be re-elected, they have misused their office for far to long.

Both sides are guilty of the exact same thing and trying to burn the other at the stake is a bit ironic and hypocritical.

 

Punisher- my wife has long had a saying "a man hears (and believes what he want to and ignores the rest"). I would say you and cashel are poster children for that. I haven't been to one of those meetings (more appropriately called "dog and pony shows") but I can guarantee you that I feel exactly the way those protesters feel and NO ONE has paid me to feel that way or worked me up to it. That is a left, liberal approach to discount the legitimate feelings of good citizens of this country who are sick to death of politicians of this country promising the moon and once in, doing anything they damn well please, without ANY REGARD as to what the people they are supposed to SERVE want or think.

 

You're right, you guys have every right to voice your opinion. That's the the great thing about this great nation. However, there's a difference between voicing your opinion and going out to those forums with the sole purpose of disrupting them, and call it whatever you want, but that has been happening as well. Frankly, I'm disgusted with both sides of the debate, democrats and republicans alike.

 

So, you have a problem with people standing up for thier freedom? I don't think the people at these town hall meetings fall neatly into (D)'s or (R)'s to make this a two sided argument. This is people who are fed up with a government that doesn't listen to the will of the people.

I am one of thoes people who would really like to attend a town hall forum with my district rep to get some answers to the questions about the proposed health care legislation. I haven't ever been contacted by the republican party in any way shape or form. I'm a voter registered independent. I've never been contacted by any insurance company, or any corporation/entity to voice my concerns on their behalf. People who think that this anger over what the government has been doing is manufacturered is blind to reality.

If I had the chance to voice my concerns to my distric rep, I would not yell my question and would be pissed off if people yelled so I wasn't able to get an answer. This yelling isn't helping anything but I understand why people get pissed off when they are repetedly given platitudes by their reps.

I'm sorry that you think that this is a two sided debate. I'm sorry that you don't want debate. I'm sorry that you can't see that these people who are attending these forums, and other events, are standing up for YOUR freedom as well as their own.
