another staged event..

I attended a Hillary campaign event which which also dove into Health care with participants with hands raised making up the Hillary-designer audience. It was completely staged (BO=BeforeObama). In fact that is why I attended to watch the preparations inside before she came on. She would know where everyone would be seated. There was a campaign member pre-Hillary who moved about asking where the teachers & nurses were, also vets (1 came as the other 2 had gone snowmobiling lol) the one vet said) They were all appropriately grouped and those that would appear behind her were so contrived visually (union members, bi-racial lesbian couple with kids etc--it was totally laughable.

Thus, contrived is what these forums are all about. I am just surprised Obama & team are so bad at it!!!

Sounds more like a bussed-in rent-a-crowd than actual residents.

I agree. I wonder if "Marilyn Foltz, a city official in Belgrade, [who] said she believes the Montana residents who waited overnight for tickets in queues that she said snaked like the lines at Disney World, "just want to hear what the president had to say." knows if anyone bothered to ask for ID when passing out those tickets to verify they were going to local people.

This is straight out of the Clinton playbook. Not only were these people planted, but they actually rehearsed, too!!

How’d ya like the end of that meeting, with Obama “earnestly listening” to the Constitutional bit, then agreeing “What a great way to end this town hall,”.

This guy is such a steaming load!

Don’t be surprised that citizens and taxpayers are screeching at townhalls and will be showing up, en masse, in places like the capital.

This administration has a tin ear and a tin horn!!

...what he says is misinformation that he thinks is fanning much of the opposition.

Then the "misinformation" is the Bill itself, because We the People are bothering to read the damn thing--1,000+ pages of it--because our Congressmen won't!

I don’t know how this man lives with himself.

Thanks Joe!

I think that he is just stoo-ped.

Everything that he does to counter opposition has the effect of poking a stick at them and he seems totally unaware of it.

When I read that article and read some liberal moron fellating him as a “Constitutional Scholar” I nearly blew my stack!!

He needs to go on vacation and gives us all a break. Isn’t he supposed to go to Martha’s Vinyard or something?
