A look at President Obama's health care "town hall" Tuesday in Portsmouth, N.H., shows the president out-spoke his audience by a margin of nearly 9-to-1 -- hardly the kind of even-handed exchange of ideas that marked the town meetings of colonial America.

perfectly said.
They’re not Town Hall Meetings, they’re Town Hall Talkings-To.
just another campaign speech along with TOTUS in tow...but take notice, when he’s not checking with TOTUS....he gets lost and starts to ramble
More plants there and the next two “town halls” then at the NY Botanical Gardens

Today, Rove alluded to the notion that, the media is now focusing on the “TownHalls” and keeping the the real issue, debate of the ‘bill’, on the back burner.
Buying time.....they are ?
He was not so much making an effort on his own as he was setting a model for them all to follow so they can have tame, contrived audiences and questions and avoid the obvious...that he American people are madder than sin and rejecting Obama and his initiatives, particularly health care.
But their efforts to try and turn this will not work. The train has already left the station.
So, as time goes on, and the heat turns up on Health Care, and as more and more Americans simply refuse to be quiet and accept what the Obama administration and the DNC propose, the lies and deception of the Obama administration and the DNC leadership are becoming more and more apparent...and as they do, they also become more and more shrill.
Here is what Obama said to the American people at a contrived "town hall" in New Hampshire on Tuesday, August 11, 2009.
"I have not said that I was a single payer supporter.” Pres. Barack Hussein Obama, Aug 11, 2009
Compare that to what he said while campaigning for the Senate to his union supporters, and was cheered while so doing:
“I happen to be a proponent of a single-payer universal health care program. I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14 percent of its gross national product on health care, cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody. And that’s what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single-payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. That’s what I’d like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately. Because first we’ve got to take back the White House, we’ve got to take back the Senate, and we’ve got to take back the House.” - Barack Hussein Obama, June 30, 2003 to AFL-CIO
I guess he thinks he can say whatever he wants at any given time and it will be truth. That is the definition of a pathological liar. He and those around him and supporting him are drunk with power and control, and this issue is rapidly sizing up to be a "Bridge too Far," for their marxist ideology and radical health care agenda.
Their pronouncements and actions are like every other repressive, tin-horn regime in history. Label the opposition with exactly what they themselves are doing and then use the government controlled and co-opted press to spread that lie, and then use their thugs to try and enforce it and stamp out dissent.
Well, not any more in this country. The health care debate has blown the lid off and it's time to carry it through on this issue and every other similiar issue (like Cap & Trade, FOCA, etc.) that these wanna-be tyrants propose.
President Barack Hussein Obama said on August 7, 2009, that he expected the people who caused the financial and health care mess to be quiet, stand out of the way, and let it be fixed. Well, Mr. President, if you do not want the people who created this mess standing in the way of fixing it, then you, Mr. Obama...and Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Frank, et all had best step out of the way yourselves. Because you not only helped engineer the problems that ensured the fiasco...you are now intent on making it immeasurably worse in your drive towards abject marxism.
In order to hide this, and in an effort to push their monstrosity Health Care, the liberal-left and Obama seem intent on turning the frustration and angst of the American people over his policies into something more akin to Iran over this issue, with their own Basij thugs sent out to silence us, and Obama supporters called on by the Whitehouse to report any dissent.
MY LETTER TO THE WHITEHOUSE AND OBAMA ABOUT FREE SPEECH
Despite all this, the American people are downloading the Dem Health Care Plan HERE and elsewhere and educating themselves.
They are also reading the cited quotes of the main architect of the plan and Chief Advisor to Obama on Health Care HERE and elsewhere, and seeing the context of the plan from the designer of it.
So, when Sarah Palin callis it evil, they know for themselves that she speaks the truth.
So they continue to take their feelings...and their own documentation...to their reps and gett in their faces about it.

...and on the lighter side, take your mind off the Obamanation for a few minutes and enjoy some beautiful Western US scenery slideshows.
Let him keep digging while more citizens awaken to his lies.
Meetings!
Full of plants don't you know.
