[In Maryland]

“These disruptions are occurring because opponents are afraid not just of differing views — but of the facts themselves.”

No, these disruptions are occurring because our questions are not being answered, our concerns are not being addressed, the press is so “in bed” with the current administration they refuse to ask any hard questions and representatives such as Hoyer openly laugh at the idea that Congress should read the bill. Einstein theorized that every action has a opposite and equal reaction - these disruptions are the reaction to the Dems trying to shove their ill-thought out, inadequately considered and undebated plan down our throats. The only way left to get their attention is to disrupt - and if you shut that down, as you have shut down any reasonable and fair debate, then even more drastic measures will have to be taken. But the American people will not be silenced - it is you, Hoyer and Pelosi, who are un-American is trying to stifle any reasonable and constructive debate on the issue. Why are you doing that? So you can ram it through Congress before any opposing voice is raised, before the “unintended consequences” can be discussed?

Your point is an excellent one in the difference between the current dissent and the RATS dissent during a WAR when our troops lives were in danger. The distinction between an overarching unConstitutional SOCIAL mandate for ALL citizens and the support for our country and fighting troops defending us is important. The fact that the Democrats seem to have NO appreciation for those distinctions is telling.

Wow. I just read through a couple hundred of those replies and didn't find one in support of Pelosi.

I'm really starting to think that their extremism, arrogance and tone-deafness is going to work out well for those of us who love freedom and the Constitution.

I think the Dem party is going to go down in flames under the Obama-Reid-Pelosi trio of incompetant radicals.

Nancy is a puppet just as OBAMA is....isn’t it obvious that someone is pulling the strings???

[londonfog]

Obama is holding a town hall in New Hampshire tomorrow. No one will be let in but hacks and brain dead sycophants. Out side there will be a huge gathering of AMERICANS . Thousand may show up. I wish I could go but I have one of the few jobs left. If you can go, please do!! please chant “NO DEATH” because of the clear intent to let old people die as a matter of health care policy.

I just love Shakes, she is just so likeable, loveable and amenable. Just like her gangster Father and her whole corrupt family. Like an episode of the Sopranos. I think she personally called the SEIU thugs in to stir things up. Her pool boy Hoyer is a joke, what real man can be a liberal.

[Adder]

Thats right.

You can’t hide your lyin eyes.
And your smile is a thin disguise.
I thought by now you’d realize
There ain’t no way to hide your lyin eyes.

Obama is in New Hampshire tomorrow???

PELOSI CALLS DISRUPTIONS UNAMERICAN

Is this the same beyotch who was screeching not 12 months ago how it was "un-American" for a President to attempt to stifle free speech when it came to questioning the motives of the War on Terror?

We don't call San Francisco "Baghdad by the Bay" for nothin', I suppose.

Where were Pelosi & Hoyer when THIS happened to Jim Gilchrist at the Columbia University? -

OMG!!!!

[meyer]

Dems hire professionals to sit in “townhall meetings” they’re the unAmericans...

Just sent a couple of screen grabs as JPG images to Glen Beck via email. Hope that he can use them.

[mware]

Start wearing those medals to the town hall meetings folks.

That ought to silence some of them to shame.

[Buck W.]

This should be the dem’s theme song on the health care debate: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Guvo7gUdUnE

Alles klar, Herr Kommissar.

[McGruff]

Good one.

“I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you’re not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration.” - Hillary Clinton

[P.O.E.]

Do they truly want another Civil War?

Going over to Brooks Brothers to select my uniform later this week.

Glen Beck mentioned this AM, what is the end game here?

San Fran Nan posts an article on a nationwide newspaper trashing anyone who disagrees.

Bam tells us (referring to Repubs) to be quiet, no talkin while he cleanups this mess.

They shutdown town halls and bring out the union thugs.

I believe they are banking on dissent dissipating, that we will give up because it is too hard, too difficult and we will not forgo our daily lives for this nonsense.

They have laid the gauntlet down, all in as others have said. Are we willing to pick it up and do battle? I guess we will see.

Read the ‘Comments’ section at the bottom of the story for how Americans feel about her and Hoyer...

[AUJenn]

Now THAT’S gonna be a house packed full of flunkies. What a joke. Like he’d really allow his photo op to be spoiled by these pesky American protesters.
