AZ 2010: McCain to host health care town halls [heads up, Arizona Freepers]

It will U.S. Sen. John McCain’s turn next week to face raucous crowds at health care town halls.

The Arizona Republican will host town hall meetings Aug. 25 in Sun City and Aug. 26 in Phoenix. They will be focused on health care and reforms pushed by President Barack Obama and Democrats in Congress. That includes the possibility of a government-run system to cover the uninsured and operate alongside private for-profit insurance companies.

The contentious health care issue has prompted ornery crowds to boo and criticize Democratic lawmakers at similar town halls in Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Florida.

Protesters on the political left and right were out in force on Monday during Obama’s speech at the Veterans of Foreign Wars convention in downtown Phoenix.

McCain’s Sun City town hall starts at 11 a.m. at Grace Bible Church. The Phoenix event is being held at North Phoenix Baptist Church and starts at 5:30 p.m.

Beat him like a drum!

Beat him for suspending his campaign and voting for the bailouts.

Beat him for praising Obama during the election.

Beat him for being a RINO.

Beat him for...(I'll leave a few)

Best picture of McCain, yet.

Is it for real or was it computer enhanced?
