Please post your pics when you can. I hope others who actually made it inside will post more info (Witnesses stated Cardin just did a 40 minute power point presentation and then took pre-screened questions before finally taking real questions from the audience.

My recommendation for arrogant Congressman that refuse to hold townhall meetings is for the voters to hold their own townhall meetings without the arrogant creeps there. Have the event videotaped and put it on the net and use it come election time.

The union knuckledraggers do not have a dog in this fight. They are the ones who should be locked out! Boycott union products!

Note: My estimates of 300 vs 50 on the outside were of those actually carrying signs. There were many more simply standing on the side of the conservatives cheering them on who did not bring signs to the event because they had hoped to actually get into the building and signs were not permitted inside the building.

There were many black protesters on the conservative side including a republican candidate for a Maryland office. One black man called Obamacare an "abomination " as he was interviewed by Fox news (The horned rimmed glass reporter-Orielly's guy?)

They cannot ignore the turnouts at these Townhalls and the fervor of the common citizens.

But......

They will.

Thanks for the report.

"All we are saying, is pay your own bills"

Just brilliant.

Saw a clip of one of the Obama deathcare supporters on Greta’s show on Fox. She said it was a “right” to have government healthcare...on the back of someone else’s labor? Glad you had such a good turnout!

Is it my imagination or are most of the protesters that the union thugs are slapping around women?

“All we are saying, is pay your own bills”

That song just stumped the left. They had no reply and seemed dumbfounded that a favorite tune of their was being used against them. Picture a huge crowd waving back and forth and singing this to the leftists across the street. It was surreal...

Griff Jenkins was covering it and reported on the Towson event, both on Sean’s show and on Greta’s.

Seems like Maryland, one of the Original Thirteen, still has that 1776 Spirit after all!! ;-)

The union chant of "What do we want-HEALTHCARE! When do we want it-NOW!"

was countered by yelling

"Our Money" just after they chanted "What do we want?!"-LOL

Great story! And knowing how stupid they are - and how all this comes down to them with talking points - they'll probably do the same chant at all the "townhalls" - and we can be ready!

Thanks for sharing.
