The well dressed mobs are carrying mean signs saying mean things like No to Government Run Healthcare.

I guess Michelle was right this country is a mean sign carrying country.

“Mr. Obama is on a promotional tour, not a fact-finding mission”

I have a suggestion, he should be on CLUE finding mission...Just saying...

Obama’s “townhalls” are nothing but cheap puppet shows for idiots. Especially the idiots in his state run MSM.

Do these people ever come to the realization that they’re simply tools? I mean, what do they expect to get out of this? Are these people even paid by the administration??

The second person “randomly” selected to ask a question was a young girl called Julia Hall from Malden MA

Julia read the following question off a piece of paper: “As I was walking in I saw a lot of signs outside saying mean things about reforming healthcare. How do kids know what is true and why do people want a new system that can help more of us”.

This randomly asked question gave Obama the perfect opportunity to dismiss talk about “death panels that will pull the plug on Grandma” and to blame Republicans for everything. Over on the town hall comments thread AtomicPunk09 discovered someone on facebook who might possibly be Julia’s mother and had a photo of her with Obama:

That made me think of the one he had a couple of months ago and he downright lied when he used Caterpillar to help push the Radical American Socialist Experiment CRAPulus Spending Bill?
Remember he said “if Congress passes our plan, this company [Caterpillar] will be able to rehire some of the folks who were just laid off.”

And then remember Jim Owens, CEO of Caterpillar refuted Obama’s outright lie, saying, “I think realistically no. The truth is we’re going to have more layoffs before we start hiring again”

What the obamanation was doing was taking advantage of American’s good manners, knowing that the guy wouldn’t come up and call him a liar right then. what a slug!

:
PITTSBURGH (AP) - Caterpillar Inc. on Tuesday announced plans to lay off more than 2,400 employees at five plants in Illinois, Indiana and Georgia as the heavy equipment maker continues to cut costs amid the global economic downturn.
Caterpillar, the world’s largest maker of mining and construction equipment, has seen its sales wither as the sluggish world economy and credit crisis weaken demand for its products, used to build everything from houses to highways. The company had expanded dramatically in recent years, helped by a building boom in developing countries.

In response to the worsening conditions, Caterpillar in January announced job cuts that will ultimately eliminate 20,000 positions. It also said it would slash executive compensation by up to 50 percent and offer buyouts to about 25,000 U.S.-based employees. Caterpillar, which employs about 112,000 people worldwide, said it had imposed a global hiring freeze.

"....even the Press is now corrupt? "

"...now...."?? Absurd!

You seem to have overlooked something....The press has been thoroughly corrupt for many decades!

ABC News was so laughable in their reporting of this fraud.

0bama’s rapt audience is unusually well dressed. Where are the SEIU T-shirts? Where are the mass-produced identical signs with the union label?

Have you seen Fox and Friends this morning?Those cowards downplayed the link between Kathleen Manning Hall and the Rats.Anyone whose actually followed the links will see she`s into the rat party up to her chin,go here for a more succinct posting of the association http://search-engine.com/archives/08-12-2009-obama-julia-hall-the-girl-who-asked-obama-a-question-about-healthcare.php

This is an example of why our side is constantly being beaten by the "state run" media machine.
