Did you see "The Life of David Gale"? Those are liberals.
That's why I put "reportedly" in the title.

So what did these intruders do to make him think they were there because he was against health care reform? I gotta say he looks like an angry guy, he may have made more than a few enemies in his day.

A concerned citizen asked a question about the health plan that has not been read by anyone who is promoting it. The politician responded with lies and rhetoric (probably from the bullet point sheet handed out by Pelosi) then later accused the citizen of being "manufactured" to disrupt. Brushed the citizen off as irrelevant with that smug pompus look on his face as if he really beleives in this BS he is selling and that "they" know what is best for us.

Disagree with the liberal statist agenda and you will be marginalized.

A concerned citizen yells about what he THINKS the health care plan that nobody has read will do. In a very loud, obnoxious, confrontational way. He says; THERE WILL BE NO COVERAGE FOR HIS HANDICAPPED CHILD. PERIOD. The politician says that isn't so but the guy is having none of it.

Why do you think the politician was lying? And do you think this man actually wanted an answer if he already "knew" everything?

Good point! I agree. The man certainly seemed angry.

Did you catch the part about the politician responding about an amendment? Then was asked what the number of said amendment was and could not answer? They are reading from a script and following the Thugocracy playbook.

I heard the guy (and others) yell "NO NO NO" when the politician first tried to respond.

If this was the first time he asked anyone about health care reform then why go in with the idea that it's all gloom and doom and insist it won't allow medical care for his handicapped son? That isn't reasonable by anyones standards. What or who gives any American the idea that their government wants them to die? He was there to rage, plain and simple.

And I'm still not seeing any details about the intruder.

Geez, guess i'll have to say it since Tank is not here to do it.

You know they would not have allowed an African American to go on tv and say he was going to kill people if they attacked his house and threatened his wife and children. Remember what they did to Malcom X etc -

No offense to Tank just thought it would be funny to write

I'm obviously kidding, but figured i'd try to add a bit of humor to the thread
