Here are film clips of two more appearances of Democratic Congressmen at town hall meetings to defend the Obama health care plan and the reception they got.
First is Congressman Lloyd Doggett of Texas appearing August 1 in South Austin.
Next is Congressman Steve Kagen August 4 in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
Today, Doggit appeared on CNN with afternoon anchor Rick Sanchez (whose show is chock full of liberal bias masquerading as a news show). In their conversation, the theme was that these turnouts by angry citizens are nothing more than an orchestrated campaign of disruption by Republicans and the insurance companies.
That view is backed up by DNC spokesman Brad Woodhouse:
"The Republicans and their allied groups - desperate after losing two consecutive elections and every major policy fight on Capitol Hill - are inciting angry mobs of a small number of rabid right wing extremists funded by K Street Lobbyists to disrupt thoughtful discussions about the future of health care in America taking place in Congressional Districts across the country."
Sanchez, in his segment with Doggett, suggested that there is a "pattern" that he detects in these meetings. His segment was entitled, "The politics of chaos".
So for you folks who have turned out to these town hall meetings and confronted your congressperson, that is what the Democrats think of you.
That is the tactic of the Democrats and their lackies in the media. The people who come out to voice their opinions at town hall forums are professional disruptors acting on behalf of the Republicans and the evil insurance companies.
I invite the viewer to check out the people in these crowds. These are not your usual long-haired lefties, anarchists, Marxists and university students. These are common, everyday folks, older folks who have legitimate concerns. Isn't it strange that every 25 or 30 years when everyday, conservative folks turn out to protest (within the bounds of the law), the Dems want to call out the National Guard?
And while we are demonizing the insurance companies, let's not forget that they are the ones who stand to go out of business if this health care plan passes. Is it any surprise if they oppose it?
How cheap of these hack politicians that they can't go before their constituents and take some heat without calling it some kind of conspiracy!

When Liberals turn out at meetings in mass it is call "Citizen Activism", when Conservatives do the same thing, it is called "Orchestrated Conspiracy". Got you.
