Here is video from Brevard County, Florida, where an AARP Health Care Town Meeting was overwhelmingly attended by those opposed to any form of Universal Health Care. An AARP representative led the meeting, and heard from many AARP members furious at the group's implied, if not official support of ObamaCare legislation.

When one woman in the crowd stood and said she favored "Universal Health Care for all," she was "heckled and called a communist."

The video also has an update at the end about area residents "still fuming" about Democrat Alan Grayson's Town Hall Meeting recently where he held the meeting in a Union Hall with only 126 chairs. Ninety-five of the chairs were occupied by Democrats who had attended a meeting scheduled in the meeting before the Town Hall Meeting. They just stayed put, filling up most of the chairs. A huge crowd of those opposed to ObamaCare were left outside. On this video, Grayson says he did not think that many would show up for the meeting, so it was held in a small place. . . . .

That's OK....they can enjoy themselves now,but they've got a really,really rude awakening coming in '10 and in '12. They're screwing their own pooch.

For years the Democrats have been able to take the oldsters as an in the bag voting group because they boosted Social Security and Medicare payments, probably way too far for the health of the country (but that’s another story). With this health takeover proposal, they are not just neglecting the old, but actively harming them. Let’s see if this costs them in the polls... and at election time.
