Town Hall Meetings Un-American?

The poor Democrats really don’t know what to do- they thought that protesting was exclusively their domain. They don’t know how to handle this “civil disobedience” from the right, even though this stuff is tame compared to the trashing of Tom Tancredo’s free speech rights at the University of North Carolina, or the Minutemen gathering at Columbia University by members of the left. At those gatherings, people’s lives were in danger, and the protesters did not even act human. But then, that’s the left for you.

So now Babs Boxer and Di Feinstein come out and say that these town halls are rigged and “Astroturfed”, as in artificially stirred up. Right out of the radical playbook of Saul Alinsky- ridicule your opponent, and marginalize whatever they say.

Nothing could be further from the truth- These people have one thing in common, whether they are (or were) Democrats, Independents, or Republicans. They know they are being screwed to the wall by King Hussein the Spineless, and they see that he wants to dismantle or country by doing away with any incentive to succeed via the freedom to earn as much money as you can.

When you earn more, you can buy more. More security, more property, more medical care, and better medical care. This is just the truth.

And conversely, when you have less money, you buy less, you have less, and you cannot cover your family medically the way you might want. This is what  Hussein wants- to level the playing field by causing people to earn less. He does this by taxing the people who earn more, until they earn much, much less. Then he gives this money, which was not earned, but taxed, to people who did not work for it. Now these suck-ups “make” as much as the people who were taxed. Is that fair? If you are the one taxed, I bet you do not think so.

This is the Genesis of the dissatisfaction that lives in the Town Hall meetings. People are not stupid, and these people also know that these meetings are really the only time they will have to try and talk with their Representative or Senator about this Healthcare debacle. Now that people know how badly this bill will mess up the medical system, and how much it will affect them, they are becoming vocal, and this is a good thing.

Saline County resident Jeannie Burlsworth, chairman of the conservative grassroots group Secure Arkansas, was in the audience at Wednesday’s forum at Children’s Hospital. Several members of the group attended the forum to ask questions and express their concerns, she said.

“Really, I felt like Congressmen Synder and Ross got off pretty easy, considering (the fact that) the people, they’re scared. … They’re wanting some answers, and rightly so,” Burlsworth said today.

Responding to Lincoln’s comments about disruptions, Burlsworth said, “It’s sad that she can’t feel free to face her constituents and talk to them. … She has to answer to the people she represents. I’m not saying that to hurt anyone. I’m just saying that she’s got to face reality here and realize that she works for the people, not the other way around.”

Yes, it is sad that our lawmakers have no cojones when it comes to facing the people they work for- after all, the laws they want to pass will, if passed, affect us all (except these lawmakers, who will keep their gold- plated insurance plans, as will, I am sure, the unions), so it is only right that these people know that we will vote their worthless butts out of office if and when they do things against our interests.

The liberals haven’t really yet figured out that we (Independents and conservatives) way outnumber them, and we can, if so inclined, yank their sorry butts out of office and undo all that Hussein the Inept has done so far. All you have to do is make us angry, and you are doing it. 

Liberals should have kept their mouths shut, and held to a lower profile, but some people just do not know when to shut up. As Ron White once said, ” I had the right to be silent, I just didn’t have the ability.”  This is a liberal trait- but we, the other side of the coin, are learning, and learning fast.

Now it is our turn, so listen up.

    I find it rather telling that a Black man was beaten at a town Hall in St. Louis the other night.
    Strange thing though, it was SEIU thugs beating a man who was handing out bandannas with the statement “Don’t Tread On Me”-
    I guess they couldn’t read. Typical liberal- out of work slackers with a second grade education. No wonder they are cleaning hotels and need the union to keep them off the unemployment rolls. They were probably paid for the beat down.
    How “American” of them.
    What scum they are.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if Obama and the left dems have not already lined up the National Guard, police and anyone else they can get to handle this supposedly vicious mob. However, they are going to trample on us just a little too much and watch out!

      They can try, but then the media, which have been complicit in their silence up until now, would have to jump in, or look like they work for Chavez, and they cannot afford this.
      You see Barbara, the left doesn’t know that they have awakened a “Sleeping Giant”, to quote a Japanese Admiral after Pearl Harbor- but in this case, it is the seniors and conservative Independents who were content to lay on the couch as long as it wasn’t about them.
      Now that it is, they are getting up and dusting the cheetos off their chest and amblin’ to the town hall meetings and the Dems don’t know what to do- they thought that protesting was their exclusive domain.
