TAMPA – Bitter divisions over reforming America's health care system exploded Thursday night in Tampa amid cat calls, jeering and shoving at a town hall meeting.

"Tyranny! Tyranny! Tyranny!" dozens of people shouted as U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor struggled to talk about health insurance reforms under consideration in Washington, D.C.

"There is more consensus than there is disagreement when you get right down to it,'' Castor offered, immediately drowned out by groans and boos.

She pressed on, mostly unheard among the screams from the audience of more than 200.

"Tell the truth! Tell the truth!"

"Read the bill!"

"Forty-million illegals! Forty million illegals!"

Was there. They are scared like little girls of the Taxpayers. They do not dare to mess with us. The confrontation was SWEET! They run like cockroaches when comnfronted. All I can say is ENGAGE ME BUCKOS>. It will do your heart good.

[screaminsunshine]

Nope. Take to the streets. I promise you they will break and run. Engage. They are terrified.

[screaminsunshine]

[screaminsunshine]

[screaminsunshine]

Kathy Castor is HISTORY. We do not tolerate this crap in Tampa.

[fhayek]

I say we take their ‘rules for radicals’ and throw it back in their face. No time for polite discussion. They like community organizers, well, lets organize.

I’m just jokin’...I’ve been here longer than you buy about 7 days.

[fhayek]

We are not radicals, true. But I am tired of backing down to politically correct crap that 90% of real Americans instinctively know is wrong. If they don't like us shouting at their towns hall, I say, shout louder. If they don't like detailed questions, I say we get IN THIER FACE and as we ask more questions. I'm sick of being on the defense. This is America that we are playing for. And I will not back down if it is THEIR nose that gets bloodied.

Karen Miracle pushes Barry Osteen, right, who was debating her husband, Garry. “We have the best health care system in the world and I’m completely happy with what we have,” Osteen said.

[screaminsunshine]

Atta Girl. Tampa will not put up with this.

[Tzimisce]

People are really mad.

[GeronL]

Now they are busing in organized leftist groups to crowd out the citizens of their own districts, they have no shame at all

[GeronL]

We are fast becoming Venezuela

Ha ha you are still pumped! Glad you went and engaged in the mix. The energy level had to be much greater than sitting in front of your PC.

I know two of the better days I had this year were going to a Tea Party and going to a Levin book signing.

We Are Everywhere.
