“This was my first time meeting Barack Obama, and he’s a very nice man,” Julia said. “I’m glad I voted for him.” ...And on Tuesday, he approached her after the town meeting. “He said ‘great question,’” Julia said. “I shook his hand and got his picture.” Kathleen Manning Hall, Julia’s mother, was shocked when her daughter said she wanted to ask a question. They wrote it down beforehand, and Julia didn’t miss a beat when Obama called on her.“It was surreal,” said Manning Hall, a coordinator of Massachusetts Women for Obama during the election...
President Obama should be charged with false advertising for calling yesterday’s Portsmouth, N.H., event a “town-hall meeting.” It was a staged, partisan campaign rally... In the 18th century, Russian Field Marshall Grigory Potemkin constructed elaborate villages to impress Empress Catherine II with the territory he had conquered. The villages were fake, comprised of nothing more than fancy facades on the front of empty shells...
The term “Potemkin village” is also often used by judges, especially members of a multiple-judge panel who dissent from the majority’s opinion on a particular matter, to describe an inaccurate or tortured interpretation and/or application of a particular legal doctrine to the specific facts at issue. Use of the term is meant to imply that the reasons espoused by the panel’s majority in support of its decision are not based on accurate or sound law, and their restrictive application is merely a masquerade for the court’s desire to avoid a difficult decision...
In fiction, The West Wing episode “Twenty Hours In America” (Season 4, Episode 1) had the character Josh Lyman quote presidential contender Robert Ritchie as saying “the challenge [of running the country] is too great for a Potemkin presidency…”

So is this what the left calls “astroturf”? Psychological projection if I ever saw it. They accuse others of what they do.

The hall was packed with democrat operatives and real American public was not permitted to enter. The facts are it was a by invitation only The little girl who questioned Obama at his "Health Care Forum" was a Democratic plant! (PROOF enclosed) =

Please research this and come to your OWN CONCLUSIONS.
We have lived in Southern NH for 30 years and I have one question:
"What is a democratic operative and early Obama supporter from MASSACHUSETTS doing in a NEW HAMPSHIRE town hall meeting, USING HER DAUGHTER AS A TOOL TO READ A CANNED QUESTION FROM A SCRIPT if this isn’t anything more than a PHONY, STAGED, POTEMKIN, SHAM-WOW Obamessiah deathcare infomercial with Obama preaching to a canned audience that has been HAND PICKED and PROGRAMMED to applaud and cry "yes we can" on cue when their master Obamessiah speaks?"
They must think we are fools who do not know how to do BASIC research using the internet.
the little girl was from MA? not NH?
It's not a long drive from Boston, which is why millions of liberal MAssholes drive to NH to buy booze, thus denying their very own state the very tax dollars they are so quick to spend.
Yes, her mother is a democrat operative in MA and has been supporting Obama for years! Her picture even appeared in the Boston GLOBE in 2007 as an Obamessiah supporter and she was a MA state delegate to the Democratic National Convention!
Excellent work!
Scumbags keep saying that friendly questions were out of respect for the office!
This has to be blown wide open about lying scumbags.
Fox just mentioning that Julia’s mother contributed to Zombama.
March to socialism accelerating!

If just FIVE "journalists" would do their jobs and report the TRUTH regarding this stuff, Obamessiah would go the route of Nixon. BUT THEY REFUSE TO DO THEIR JOBS!
