guy with a video camera ^

Posted on 08/03/2009 6:49:23 PM PDT by GodfearingTexan

This has PROBABLY been posted here already. BUT, by God, this is worth posting again. We ought to do this to every single Cap-and-Trade voting, Obama-care-promoting "fedzillacrat" at every single town hall meeting until 2010. I am a southerner but these Yankees made me as proud as I can be. You gotta watch!!!

Wow - this Tim Bishop guy has foot in mouth - brain up his you know what and is definitely NOT interested in what WE THE PEOPLE have to say. He has drunk the Koolaid - and has wallowed the Libtard way of thinking link hook and sinker.

Thanks for posting as I haven’t seen it. This is TREMENDOUS — the people are fighting back and letting the pompous, arrogant socialist scum gasbag have it with both barrels. And on Long Island, no less!

If buckets of hot tar and feathers were available, he probably wouldn’t have gotten out of there with his hide intact.

This is giving me hope for the future.

I loved the part where Bishop extols the greatness of the VA system and a veteran called him out on it. “Are you a veteran?”, the old man repeatedly asked. Bishop hemmed and hawed and said no.

The old man said, “Then how can you say veteran’s health care is great. I’ve had to wait two months to see a doctor.” The crowd went wild.

What I love is that the meeting room is packed - standing room only and all during the meeting, you can hear a crowd of people outside chanting, "Silent no more."

Just asking...

I know I have some Obama voters in my family who are less than happy with the democrats at this point. A couple have even attended tea parties.

I watched all of it. First, good for the citizens... they were most definitely heard.

Second... the congressman was not listening. He appeared to think that he knew best... that his his constituents knew nothing... that they were simply wrong in all areas.

Third... if there had been a bucket of tar there, along with the proverbial feathers... I do believe he would have left wearing them.

Fourth... for those citizens, prepare to vote the guy out of office as he is not going to represent you.

I have one question about this guy.

If he is so bad and such a socialist - Why have New Yorkers continued to vote him in office?

He’s been there since 2003! Hello!

I’m betting that quite a few of these people voted for Obama.

The fact that he collectively groin-kicked the white guilt voting bloc Wednesday before last might just have given them impetus to show up here. Not that the issues were directly related of course.

“Adding insult to injury” you might say.

Incredible. This could have been scripted by Frank Capra.

The questioners do NOT come off as ignoramouses. Bishop does, however. He simply oozes condescension.

The chanting outside the window is a great touch.

You should see Part2 of the clip.

The crowning moment has to be when Bishop baldly states that the Constitution exists to “provide for the common good”.

To say the least, they don’t get away with it.

The man is an unbelievable caricature of an arrogant liberal. He just oozes condescension throughout. This must be the first time he has ever had an unscripted gathering.
