Youngstown congressman cancels meeting when protesters appear Wednesday, March 31, 2010 10:02 AM
THE (YOUNGSTOWN) VINDICATOR
YOUNGSTOWN -- A congressman canceled an informational meeting on the new health care law because of security concerns.
Democratic U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan scheduled the meeting yesterday in Youngstown but called it off because his office was concerned about inadequate security.
About 15 demonstrators, including Tea Party members, had showed up to protest the wide-ranging health care overhaul signed into law last week.
Ryan's office says the meeting wasn't intended as a political forum and will be rescheduled.
Just how does one become a "Tea Party member?" This media template is becoming obvious. We should not play into their hands. The phenomenon of ordinary citizens demanding their constitutional liberties should be called "The Patriot Movement" and not the Tea Party. This is no political party.
Boy they run lije little girls when someone questions them? Not a great way to get re elected buddy.
Well then they are going to have a very hard time campaigning because many will follow them where ever they go to ask questions.
This is great news!
As Thomas Jefferson once said, “When the people fear the government you have tyranny, when the government fears the people you have liberty.”
Sounds like liberty is just around the corner.
He also said, “When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes required.”
Democratic U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan sits to pee.
lije=like
I think Utube has a lot of his one minute* beam me up Scotty* speeches..hysterical
Notice also the timing of the trip to Afghanistan, the announcement today on offshore drilling, the signing yesterday of the reconciliation bill where the emphasis was not on health care, but on student loans. They want to talk about anything BUT Obamacare.
Traficant should run as a Republican ! If he runs as an independent, he would split the non-democrat vote !
Ohio ping!
The libs would automatically tie that to The Patriot Act.
I always loved Jim’s weasel-like hair pieces.
Yep. Standby for immigration, more Israel trashing and the planting of Michelle's White House garden.
gotta feed the commie lib local hosts over at WKBN radio some red meat about those “violent right-wing extremists”
Has to kill the local hosts that WKBN runs Rush.
Beam me up, Scotty!!!
I truly hope each of the congress and senate critters are nervous.
Hold them ALL acountable for their bribes and votes.
But the cowardly Congressman's lying lackeys said “the meeting wasn't intended as a political forum”.
