Union Thugs and favorable audiences are being planted in those Democrat town hall meetings to confront senior citizens and people expressing their thoughts, whether those thoughts are paid for or not - is that any better? Star, when your "community organizing" buddies stop registering dead people to vote and calling everyone who doesn't agree with the president "racists", then we will stop asking questions of our Democratic breteren - Actually, no, we won't. :)

And we know that you don't have any because what you say isn't happening.  Besides, the logical conclusion of your argument is that a congressman's constituents shouldn't show up at his public events, but that it's okay if agitators who are not his constituents disrupt his meetings with his consituents.

Bob, are you incapable of understanding that it is not in the interest of people who support health care reform to disrupt these meetings?

And you also imply that communities shouldn't organize themselves in order to accomplish their common goals.

What is it, Bob?  Is it simply that you lack the intelligence it takes to follow your ideas through to their logical conclusions?

And can you provide any evidence of where someone other than the director a Republican voter registration organization was sent to jail for registration fraud?  And it would help if that person was not reported by the organization for which he was working, as ACORN has done on several occasions.  (It turns out that ACORN is a very ethical organization.)

Bob, I've just got to say it: you strike me as being particularly dishonest and unintelligent.

Here's the important part of the post. 

"Actually, Limbaugh has historical references exactly reversed. "Mussolini-type stuff" involves organizing gangs of thugs on behalf of established business interests to assault and intimidate union organizers."

Follow that link for more detail about the subject from a book called, "The Anatomy of Fascism" 

Your blackberry can handle facts, right?

Conservatives on the fringe like you are suffering from "Obama Trauma." You awoke one morning to realize you were no longer the establishment and have not been able to absorb the fact. In short you are clinging to your delusions, aided and abetted by right wing radio and blogs.

 What the Town Hall mobs, the birthers tea parties (all the same group) do in aces is to bring to the forefront the mental health issues of many Americans.

Calling a Senator and leaving death threats because they aren't having a town hall meeting and you want to go and disrupt it. Does not in any way shape or form fall within the parameters of civil discourse.

Disagreeing with the President doesnt make you a racist. Being a racist makes you a racist. Thought I would clear that up for ya !

Why do conservatives want to disrupt town hall meetings?  Why cant they have an HONEST debate?

A conservative believes nothing should be done for the first time
