First ...I like the way the minimize these protests.<br />First of all none of the major media outlets are reporting them because they stopped "reporting" and started "promoting."<br />One I was at had 3000 people and it was reported as a couple of dozen by our local news media and one in Ohio had 8000 people and it was reported as 300. I guess they get their marching orders from the Whitehouse or they don't want to look foolish after promoting Obama as their "chosen" candidate.<br />Of course the media followed Cindy Sheehan all over the country for 9 months and will air a protest of 3 or 4 code pinkies.<br />We all know if these "millions" of insignificant people were protesting a republican president the media would be having a field day with it.<br />They must be nervous if they are purposely ignoring it.<br />Something else they choose to ignore:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSzYBnahgkU&feature=player_embedded<br /><br /><br />LisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098264341625381422.post-46394190925957045222009-08-03T14:17:31.263-07:002009-08-03T14:17:31.263-07:00I cannot let the above comment go without comment....I cannot let the above comment go without comment. These impassioned folks weren't organized by ANYONE. They are there becaase they know how badly the government will screw up healthcare and how much more it will cost with them involved. They oppose bad legislation. No one has to organize them to show. They care.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098264341625381422.post-44828041028156294342009-08-03T14:15:27.958-07:002009-08-03T14:15:27.958-07:00Speaking of ACORN, that comment is very Alinsky of...Speaking of ACORN, that comment is very Alinsky of you. Identify, isolate, freeze, escalate. Very nice. <br /><br />Well, either Armey will be able to hire a bunch of folks to show up at townhalls all over the country, this will be the only one, or this is a real grass roots movement. Americans for Prosperity are not my brethren. <br /><br />There is no reason to believe those folks are anything more than common folks that went to a townhall and questioned their politicians. Do you have any evidence that these folks were hired and bused in?mike volpehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02999118519606254362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3098264341625381422.post-74572318158240292992009-08-03T14:06:17.436-07:002009-08-03T14:06:17.436-07:00Wow, just wow.

Am I to believe that health care reform won't pass because a group of right-wing mobs have been hired by Dick Armey to terrorize Democratic lawmakers (and by extension, their supporters) into submission?<br /><br />You must be proud, Mike. You and your brethren at Americans for Prosperity have managed to accomplish in a matter of weeks what took ACORN years. That's right, Mike. YOU have become the new ACORN.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
