People getting vocal at Congress critter's town hall meetings

0 votes

Screaming constituents, protesters dragged out by the cops, congressmen fearful for their safety — welcome to the new town-hall-style meeting, the once-staid forum that is rapidly turning into a house of horrors for members of Congress.

Everyday we are subjected to outright deceitfulness

... well, that works as long as everyone has their head up their ass. Hells-Bells, people are pulling their head out of their ass nowadays in large part to the internet, thanks Al.

Politicians have been at the lobbyist trough long enough. If this house of cards should collapse they better have a large standing army "on their side", something our founding fathers forbid in the Constitution for that very reason.

I was just talking to some remodeling suppliers and one sounded like a DP'er, but never even heard of Paul, the other said he was going to vote for Paul (?). The one that never heard of Paul, son was expelled from H.S. (champion wrestler) for an alleged disparaging comment in social studies in front of his Hispanic classmates discussing their right to display the Mexican Flag in America. When it was his turn to express an opinion, he objected to displaying foreign flags, saying this is America, not Mexico, and he did not like it ! The teacher and him got into heated exchange, claiming his remarks infringed on the Mexicans 1st amendment rights ! He was expelled and his dad (above) went to the principle demanding his son's right to free speech too. The principle concurred with the father and the boy returned to class and gave a copy of the 1st Amendment to the teacher who became insulted and "tried" to have him expelled again lol.

R3VOLUTION!!!

See y'all at the "re-education" camp !

Video and post on you-tube the actions of your elected officials

“There is no point in

“There is no point in meeting with my constituents and [to] listen to them and have them listen to you if what is basically an unruly mob prevents you from having an intelligent conversation.”

If Bishop actually listened to those people before voting on the matters upsetting to them it's highly likely an unruly mob would not be present.

I'm guessing he voted for cap-and-tax, a bill which will result in "energy" increases of 20-40% for all of us and this chooch has the gaul to wonder why people are angry?

They admit themselves that they were silent before

They said nothing and then got mad that it didn't go their way. I would have loved to hear this dummy defend his votes. I'm sure it would have been better than the yelling fest I saw.

People are becoming aware of the false left right paradigm.

They're seeing some of their supposed reps for the actors/liars that they are. Not representing the people just acting a part with a mission to do everything they're told to do and in the process take everything you have if possible. Both sides the repub actors and the demo actors working un unison to hand this country and essentially the world to the banks. I'm not even so sure that the threat by Hank Paulson of martial law in the event Congress didn't pass the bailout wasn't another ruse. Seeing as how
Congressman Brad Sherman who made the allegation took forever to sign on as a co-sponsor to audit the FED, you'd think he's have initiated the process ? Same with Robert Wexler Congressman from Florida. He was screaming Cheney hearings, impeachment proceedings (as should have taken place according to law) What happened to that guy..Where is he on HR 1207..HE'S AWOL...If I were Wexler I might think or have a strong inclination to believe an audit of the FED would give me what I needed to make a REAL case for prosecuting Bush/Cheney...To me it says bullshit, where does the bullshit stop ?? Purely disgusting...

Just one last kick in the nuts, then a final deathblow

People are becoming aware

of the False Left/Right paradigm but not enough of them though. From the words of Morpheus, his words is what we are dealing with. "The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it."

The attitude

of these alleged public servants is infuriating. For example, Tim Bishop wants to set the parameters of the debate. Anyone whose opinion is not not politically correct according to his definitions will not be allowed to speak. It's a sham democracy.

Thus, "Please, attend the Town Hall to discuss health care. However, don't question the major premise that we need 'health care reform,' which properly interpreted is the socialization of medicine." Bishop and the members of Congress, the MSM, and the Washington power elite are recalcitrant in their views. They have an agenda which they intend to enact no matter what. In truth they do not care what you think, as long as their person, position, power, and money are not threatened.

You have got that exactly right!

They should thank their lucky stars that the "mob" isn't tar and feathering them (yet).

Risk alienating moderates?? I'm sorry...WHAT??

this article failed to mention is: These creatures just want to talk down to mindless bodies and resent anyone that questions their corruption.

People are getting vocal.

Of course they are. Congress has ignored the calls and letters from the American people. I read that the emails were 100 to 1 against the first bailout. Trying to get the attention of Congress by ordinary means has shown that Congress not only ignores the will of the people, but shows just how ignorant the members are on Constitutional and monetary issues.

The people, frustrated with being ignored, feel forced to raise their voices. Then state run media writes this article spinning political dissent as a form of criminal activity. Put the two together, dissent will increase, and with the help of state run media, the police state will become ever more obvious.

It's possible that this has been the design all along. Either way, what did Congress expect when they decided to blatantly thumb their noses at the electorate? As for my opinion, I say we should become even louder until those elected to serve the people clean out their ears and honor their oaths of office.

They know what side their

They know what side their bread is buttered on...the lobbyist side.

Are we catching on yet?

"The body is but a vessel for the soul,
A puppet which bends to the soul's tyranny.
And lo, the body is not eternal,
For it must feed on the flesh of others,
Lest it return to the dust whence it came.
Therefore the soul deceives and despises."

Thank you for that wonderful video.

Great to know freedom people are speaking up so effectively at public meetings.

just wait....

it gunna get rull, rull ugly when hoards of stupid sleeping sheeple- peeps start getting angry about a situation that they know nothing of.

I'm waiting for the day when

I'm waiting for the day when Diana DeGette (CD1 - Denver) has a townhall meeting. I doubt she ever will, but I will be there to protest her voting for TARP, refusing to sign 1207, voting for the food safety bill (even though it failed). That woman is an absolute disgrace for Denver and for the Colorado people.

nice to read... constituents

nice to read... constituents doing their jobs as citizens because those elected to "represent" them aren't doing theirs. reading the comments of the reps further points out the fact they just don't get it... such arrogance. this type of action by the citizens needs to continue until those in office have no choice but to listen. it is our duty, kudos to those who confront these elected piles of dung.

Its our fault !

Listening to Humanities scholar and author, Clay S. Jenkinson, adopts the persona of Jefferson each week; once said, at a live performance I attended, "Vote all incumbents out of office until they get it right."

Excellent web site and audio recordings of performances. Some real good Jeffersonian humor to keep you amused. Recommended.
