Whodathunk Claire McCaskill would be the voice of reason?
IIRC, Hoyer’s holding and invitation-only event.
All of this is similar to John Edwards running down the hall and hiding from the press in the hotel bathroom.
Talk about pouring gas instead of water onto a fire!
If I wear old jeans and a hat, while not bathing or changing my underwear for a week, am I THEN a Legitimate Democrat-like protestor???
Nothing will happen, of course, but it's fun to jab them in the ribs anyway.
Chris Murphy(CT-2) was overwhelmed by more than 200 yesterday. He received an earful from an overwhelming majority who opposed BO’s socialist health care plan. He had the gall to hold the meeting outside a grocery store in a strip mall in Simsbury, CT. He initially had people sign up to speak to him but that idea fell apart when the crowd became too large for a one on one. He then tried to speak to the whole crowd without any PA system. Only those closest to him could hear anything. The police moved the crowd away from the store after the store manager complained due to the size of the crowd.
He had an aide roaming the crowd listening and talking to people. They gave him an earful. I informed him the federal government regulating health care is unconstitutional since it is not listed in Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution. He replied he had read the Constitution and it was legal for the federal government to regulate health care. I told the aide this meeting should have been conducted indoors with a PA system. The aide replied Murphy didn’t think there would be so many people. I told him that was naive since town hall meetings throughout the country were drawing big crowds. I asked him why he wasn’t taking notes. He replied he would remember everything everyone said. I left shortly thereafter. It was a farce.
