   Expressing opinions — fine. Shutting down townhalls & generally thwarting the democratic process — not fine.

   Why do you think we have to resort to yelling? BECAUSE NOBODY IS LISTENING!!!

   These town hall meetings tended to have scripted speeches stright from the DNC website. I am not kidding, I read the website. And then they take only pre-screened questions.

   It was yelling or shooting. Yelling is better than shooting any day of the week.

   They spent the whole time trying to make people hate Obama: “These people (Democrats) hate you. They’re trying to destroy your life. They will succeed unless you stop them by force. Everything they say is a lie. …”

   the democrats don’t need any help making people hate them.

   and yes democrats do have a sneering contempt for the ‘little people’ like you.

   the ‘stop them by force’ is just a flat out lie, you lying piece of trash. can you wacko democRAT stooges EVER tell the truth??

   everything you say is a lie..and everything the democRATs say is a lie.

   It’s standard democrat MO. If you have no facts to argue with, make some up.

   Obama’s call to union and welfare thugs is a call to violence.

   Union members and welfare recipients don’t see it that way. They are not the ones disrupting the health care debate.

   Yet. They’ve been called up to fix that little problem.

   jwm said (#66):

   My neighbors are teachers or work in law enforcement.

   Most teachers and law enforcement workers are members of unions that supported Obama and support health care reform. Are your neighbors thugs?

   That is a specious argument: all union thugs are union members, but not all union members are thugs, particularly when you are forced to join a union in a non right to work state.

   That’s how he puts food on his table (and lots of it from the look of him).

   But it does bring up a good point: would you say the same about Michael ‘Burp’ Moore?

   Touche! BTW, one thing I admire about Bush is his physical fitness. — Rush, not so much.

   You have to keep up: Rush is apparently in quite good shape now: his weight is down and I believe you have no personal information about his relative fitness.

   Just why exactly do you have a problem with americans expressing thier opinions???

   Expressing opinions — fine. Shutting down townhalls & generally thwarting the democratic process — not fine.

   Then you will reference citations of your dismay of many instances where conservative speakers were either shouted down or completely prevented from speaking at all. This is particularly prevalent at college campuses.

   Beck has been urging his listeners to be polite and respectful.

   I spent two hours in the car yesterday & got an earful of Beck and Hannity. They spent the whole time trying to make people hate Obama: “These people (Democrats) hate you. They’re trying to destroy your life. They will succeed unless you stop them by force. Everything they say is a lie. …”

   Is that a real quote or just your interpretation? Please reference specific YouTube, show transcripts or other recordings to support your premise. You don’t need to hate Obama to hate what he is doing to the country. The way he has discarded the campaign promises he got elected on (with no resume to speak of, that is the only thing one could use to vote for him, if you don’t count the whole “first black president” thing, which is nice if black trumps experience and competence.

   I regularly although not daily listeng to Rush, Beck and Hannity. I have a hard time listening to Hannity because for some reason his voice just bugs me.

   I have never once heard anything that remotely resembles that characterization of their comments. When people post stuff like this “hate” stuff what it tells me is that they either have an agenda OR don’t really listen to either of these men. Same is true for Malkin, Laura Ingram, Ann Coulter, etc.

   I have been forced to be a member of the SEIU. Every year I have to write to my local chapter demanding to “opt out” of paying my dues for political purposes. Every year I get a refund from the Union (usually 30% of the total dues paid) I get my money 5-6 months after I demand it. I hate the SEIU!
