Great article and Ms Kersten did an excellent job of pointing out the HYPOCRISY of the LEFT WING KOOKS. Thanks for the POST, this will certainly get to others.

Obama knows, as an aide has reportedly threatened, how to “punch back twice as hard” when opponents challenge him. His administration is moving to overwhelm town hall protesters with its own troops, assisted by a carpet-bombing media campaign financed with Big Pharma’s big money.

This is exactly why the Tea Party People need to Stay FOCUSED and UNITED in every area. Obummer does not like dissent nor do his cronies.

Yes, watching the Democrats in their town hall meetings it's apparent that these arrogant bastards seem to be living on a different planet than the rest of us.

For all intents and purposes they are. They are not required to include themselves in the rules they establish for the "rest of us".

I stayed at a Clarion in Ebensburg, PA Friday night. Got up the next morning and the hotel was hosting a SEIU gathering. Guess it was a good thing I wasn’t driving my truck with the Palin stickers on it...

But, but, but...I thought the First Amendment was holy writ to liberals, that it was the most important civil liberty and that dissent was patriotic. Now they’re getting all wee-weed up? Was gibt?

It’s true, that’s exactly what happened. I can’t imagine why they were scared of letting Romney name the successor. He’s sort of like an honorary Democrat anyway.

My problem with that is that the press would demonize conservatives for it and ignore the Dems.

Once again it doesn't matter because there is no net change. If the R's don't do anything the press disapproves of, they'll just dig deeper or manufacture some lie or create a new category of things that are reprehensible when done by a Republican. So you come out ahead if you make the crime fit the punishment.

Except it's not a crime. Bush firing US Attorneys wasn't a crime. But the press will spin it that way. And the press cost us. There are clueless ones who sit in front of TV and believe it. As I said, that's changing. The townhalls prove that.

But that’s just my point. The press will print something equally “incriminating” of Republicans no matter what the R’s do. If there’s nothing real r semi-real to grouse about, they’ll make it up or invent some new standards to apply ex post facto. So if it’s a given you’re going to get shredded in the press, why not make sure you get some shredding done yourself?

I'm stunned!

The “Red” Star Trib actually printed this?

Amazing!

My congressman, Mike Honda (D-Ca) is also having a “telephone townhall”.

I’ve sent him several e-mails, and I don’t get real answers back. What a joke.

Any real shredding would do actual harm. Again, the bias of the press may be less prevalent as the public becomes more aware.

And if I wanted to use Dem tactics, I'd be a Dem.

wow.

Here's the angrymob keyword sorted chrono and almost no other editing: Here are the first two topics in the keyword, but they're archival. ALL those above have appeared in recent weeks.
