POTUS IS A COWARD- NH Town Hall is a Staged Event
Boston.com/the lid ^ | 8/11/09 | The Lid

Posted on 08/11/2009 11:25:29 AM PDT by Shellybenoit

Today's New Hampshire town hall was billed as a real one. The President was going to take questions from everyone, both pro and con.

Asked about the town hall, White House deputy press secretary Bill Burton said today that there will be about 1,800 people in the audience, including members of the general public and those who received tickets through members of Congress...

"We expect that there will be a vigorous debate, as there have been at plenty of town halls that President Obama has had as president and as candidate, and we look forward to it," Burton told reporters on Air Force One this afternoon.

What it turned out to be is a staged play (theater of the absurd), Tickets were given to a pre-screened audience

As usual for such events, the White House controlled the distribution of the free tickets to get into the gym at Portsmouth High School. And, per usual, the Secret Service will take care of any unruliness.

The only tough question BHO ever got was from Joe the Plumber.

Did anyone get in? If they don’t let us in then make sure the event gets shut down. Liberty isn’t Obama’s stage to stand on nor flag to trample.

It was a phony setup from the get-go. Totally orchestrated. Campaign 2012 is kicking off VERY early in New Hampshire.

Talk about a dud. It was like those Roman candles on July 4 that just roll out the end and go “poof.” Not even CNN could stay awake to hear BO drone on and on and on.
The caliber of questions from NH compared to those at the Specter town hall this morning was extremely telling. BO’s cult is woefully uninformed compared to opponents of ObamaCare.

That was all stage managed... you will see clips from this event until your dying day, and much sooner.... like in the next national election! I am certain that Mr. Obama was filmed nine ways from Sunday on this one. Whether it is on THIS issue or some other, you will NOT see the end of the hysterical idolatry displayed in THIS venue.

He is correct, 3 General attendees and 1797 with tickets from their members of Congress.

Nah, no plants will be attending this staged meeting with pre-approved questions and pre-approved answers.

He reminds me of Lyndon Johnson who towards the end could only speak on military bases

0’s first question was from a Rat state rep.
Next up was a school girl reading off a post-it note about those “mean signs” outside.

Asked about the town hall, White House deputy press secretary Bill Burton said today that there will be about 1,800 people in the audience, including members of the general public and those who received tickets through members of Congress...

If the American apathetic public continues non-reactions to blatant propaganda like this we are doomed to slavery or violence.

Parsing the statement above results in an accurate sensical statement devoid of meaning. Let me illustrate:

White House deputy press secretary Bill Burton said today that there will be about 1,800 people in the audience [so far so good] , including members of the general public [six of them] and those who received tickets through members of Congress... [all "progressives or RINOs, and the selected questioners hand picked ahead of time from ACORN or the other alphabet-soup thugs.]

All totally accurate but also totally misleading.

There is no substitute for random choice of questioners organized such as to prevent exploitation by the new Goebbels machine.

"Open and transparent," my elbow!

Which side of the protest was that guy on? The anti-Hussein side?? (BTW, you CAN vote Republican and expect conservatism...if you vote for the right Republican. Democrats can NEVER expect that....but I’m sure you know that. :) )
