Trying to make it SEEM like this is a populace "movement", trying to create another manufactured story and meme, hoping the media will latch on.


YouTube - Allen West Heckled, Heckler Arrested

The woman arrested was a former Air America host.

Dan Webster town hall Orlando: U.S. Rep. Dan Webster of Florida was confronted by an angry crowd of critics at his final town hall meeting of Congress' spring recess - OrlandoSentinel.com

Quote:
Webster tried to go over a series of charts showing growing levels of federal spending and debt and the reason he supports the federal budget plan put forward by Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis. But he was interrupted at every turn by shouts from critics that included members of progressive groups such as Moveon.org and Organize Now.

Similar scenes have been repeated around the country — though not as rowdy as the one in Orlando — as liberals try to bring some of the grass-roots town-hall rage shown by the tea party during the health-care debate last year.
Rude leftist astroturfers, out in force.

I would also expect the purple people to show too. Can't be astroturf without the purple people.

But, but....didn't Nancy Pelosi say that to protest townhall meetings was "un-American"?

These disruptions are occurring because opponents are afraid not just of differing views — but of the facts themselves. Drowning out opposing views is simply un-American. Drowning out the facts is how we failed at this task for decades.

Liberals have always been aggressive and forceful but lately they have become extremely hateful, arrogant, mean and even more aggressive.

You have not seen anything yet as we get close to the unions being toast and Obama polls numbers continue to drop like a rock you will see the typical left winger become even more aggressive like we saw in Wisconsin and other locations.

Get ready to protect yourself from these crazy people as they will stop at nothing to get heard and stop a completely calm and organized town hall from happening

So basically, Pelosi is schizophrenic.

Explains much about those who follow her.
