Liberals, What Is Wrong With Organized Resistance Showing Up By Bus To Protest The Healthcare Reform?

Excellent point!

I bet the liberals are confused at the complete lack of violence, arrests, and absolutely no overturned and burning cars. All of which are strong indicators that a liberal event occurred.
Liberal = Do as I say, not as I do.
Liberal = Hypocrite.

Do what you want but don’t come crying to me when Obama brings in bus loads of big black brothers to crack your heads open like watermelons.” Like he did with the Black Panthers during the election?

Isn’t it great how the people who are at these events are being paid and transported in by the very people that want to take away their insurance. Must be great to go through life ignorant of the facts, because then you don’t have to care if you have been convinced to fight against your own self interests.” You just dscribed every event that ACORN attends. They wear matching shirts, carry matching manufactuerd signs, and shout the same slogans in unison.

Nothing. Although most who are against reform are unaware of the facts.
I am always amazed how many Americans seem not to be aware about the issues with healthcare relying on FOX and other sources to spread misinformation about the healthcare system of the USA and those abroad.
First of all, Obama wants to make insurance more available to all and change the system so that it is cheaper. He also wants change so that the insurance companies find it harder to get out of paying for treatment. The system he is proposing looks similar to that which works in Holland and Switzerland where private companies are involved in providing insurance.
Second, of course universal health-cover sucks. That is why we in Western Europe have it. We think, hmm, our healthcare system sucks. I know, lets keep it. I guess that is the same with Japan and Canada as well.
Third, Obama campaigned on reforming the healthcare system. He said he wanted to make insurance more available and he was elected by the American people to do this.
FACT – the US has higher death rates for kids both for kids aged under one and those under five than western European countries with universal health coverage.
FACT – American insurance companies push up prices and work to stop paying out claims on those they cover.
FACT – the USA spends more on healthcare PER PERSON than any other nation on the planet.
That means that a dead American four year old would have had a better chance of life if they were born in Canada, France, Cuba, Germany, Japan etc, all of which have universal health coverage.
Last of all if you do not like the policies that Obama was elected to bring in, he can always be voted out of office in 2012.

there is nothing wrong with it but at the last town hall meeting I went to there were no buses and it appeared to me most people did not even car pool as I had to walk a block to find a parking place and the school had a good size parking lot.
Still 5/1 people were against the health care bill. and most of the supporters were all wearing purple shirts. Obviously the Liberals are the ones Astro-turfing support The opposition is real grass roots.

BECAUSE IT’S FAKE!
ROFL…people are starting to see that the “anger” is all faked.
Can NeoCons show any people that are really so against health care reform? Anyone that’s not paid?
Show me someone in the Lloyd Doggett protests in Austin that’s really a resident of his district, and I’ll laugh at you. They’re all transplants from out of town.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8UjY3YDl…
Can’t imagine any of this bunch on 6th street on a Friday night.
“I bet the liberals are confused at the complete lack of violence, arrests, and absolutely no overturned and burning cars. All of which are strong indicators that a liberal event occurred.”
And there was definitely no reading of words longer than 3-4 letters at the Doggett meeting.
Poor NeoCons can’t handle much more than that.

That’s not what’s happening. People are being paid by lobbying groups and far-right groups to disrupt meetings, not to voice their opinions. The health insurance companies do not want Americans to learn about health care reform, so they are spending millions of dollars each day to defeat it. This is part of that effort.
The town hall meetings are designed for the constitutents to be able to discuss things with their representatives. These insurgent tactics are carried out by people who are not constituents and who do not have the constituents’ interests in mind. They are being bussed around by extremists.
My question is: why would you support this activity and would you like it if they disrupted your meeting that you attended in order to get your questions asked?http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/con…http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uplo…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsrWNPMfl…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0Da8lygL…

Holy **** is like you and insurance companies think alike, what a coincidence…
Well I guess if you don’t believe in global warming you think like gas companies, and if you think cigarettes don’t cause cancer you think like cigarette companies, and if you think unnecessary wars are good for our security you must think like the military industrial complex should I continue or do you see a patern…

Isn’t it great how the people who are at these events are being paid and transported in by the very people that want to take away their insurance.

ACORN this, ACORN that, what is the deal with you righties and ACORN!?!? Seriously! I guess you’re in line with Fox “News” and their hatred of minorities being allowed to vote, aren’t you?
As far as the nut jobs at the town halls? Those poor misguided people will DO ANYTHING for a buck! They are being paid for their stupidity and misguided, fake “patriotism.”

There you go again, manufacturing outrage….
I’m absolutely fine with it. Busses are a civil service and the people who are protesting are citizens using their rights. I don’t agree with them but I’m not all up in arms about it or anything.

I like how Keith Overbite calls them “Crazy radicals.”
Most are just shouting “Read the Bill!”
And if wanting a Senator or Congressman to read the bill instead of just voting for it (John Conyers), then I guess I’m a crazy radical too!

You got it – it’s wrong now because they’re the ones on the receiving end of the protests. As long as it promotes some purported cause of theirs, it’s fine. Quid pro quo.

Sounds like the finest of democracy in action.
Only liberal fascists could oppose peaceful democratic protest.

Nothing would be wrong with it — if they weren’t lying. Freedom of speech does not include the right to libel or slander.

Republicans Do Not Rise On Buses

It’s not wrong, and I don’t recall ever saying it was.

ACORN is so… stupid.

Yawn. I’m not a liberal, I’m a communist, and I could care less what you people do.
