I noticed the counter on Leah’s Youtube video has been stuck at 28,266 for about 10 minutes...I assume you watched the video...it should have ticked up about 25-75 views since then.

Portsmouth High School has been the site of many wonderful theatrical productions; practiced and polished, with everyone remembering their lines, I expect this one to be no different.
The choice of Portsmouth is no accident...

I’ve noticed that quite a bit when Drudge posts Youtube videos. They must update their hit counter hourly or something along those lines.

What we have to remind people of is this:

Obama will make the bill sound wonderful. That doesn’t matter - what matters is what the bill says! His reassurances simply do not match the verbiage of the bill. The bill contains many dire concerns.

“Mr. President, would you make it mandatory that you and all members of congress take this new proposed health plan and get rid of your existing health plan?”

this is not a town hall meeting, it’s just another staged event.

to add insult to injury for the left the people out there for bozo are not even for health care in some parts, they are for global warming and that crap.

this is how desperate the left is to get their numbers, they have got every left wing loon group to stand there.

just how pathetic the left have become

It doesn’t appear any of those opposed to his plan are in the audience. This is nothing more than a staged campaign speech. All smiles, all cheers. I expect someone to faint momentarily. They started to chant “yes we can.”
