A small group of Dallas-area residents rallied near U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison's north Dallas office Thursday in support of health care reform that includes a public option to cover the uninsured.
After waving signs for motorists on North Central Expressway, organizers delivered a petition with hundreds of signatures to Hutchison's office.
The Republican senior senator was not inside.
Supporters of a public option for health care coverage were also expected to deliver petitions to Sen. John Cornyn local office as part of a national event sponsored by the liberal political action committee MoveOn.org.

“Hundreds” of signatures on the petition?
That's all you need to know about these so-called "protesters"
I wonder how many of the motorists flipped off the waving nutjobs as they passed by?
Illegals?
Looks like the gimmie gimmies are starting to take it to the streets. Should we take bets as time goes on and other issues arise as to how quickly their protests turn to acts of violence?
I’m in Kerrville, TX, and moveon had a bus coming this am to take petitions & folks to Cornyn’s office & Hutchinson’s Office in San Antonio.
They had about 30 folkds signed up, according to the local paper, and the organizer, Rose M Hall of Kerrville.
FYI, moveon.org tried the same stunt in NC today but were outnumbered 4-1 by counterprotesters. Click on the link fo pictures.

If the Dallas Morning News reports a gathering of liberals as “small,” you can bet your sweet patootie that the gathering was almost too tiny to be seen.
