As someone said, Obama has a limited playbook and when it doesn't work, he's at a loss of what to do next.

Trolling as usual. If you actual engaged your brain and tried to actual participate in a discussion you would probably have a seizure and be hospitalized. You are NOTHING but an apologist for Obama and the Democrats. You can not even articulate why you support him other then cause he was the Democratic Nominee and want to claim others are partisan.

It would be truly fun if it were not so prevalent on your side of the aisle.

"How out of" -- wait. I'm sorry, did you say "how out...."

Oh man, I'm having a hard time hearing. Did you say "How out of touch are Democrats at...

Oh man, I missed it again. A little louder please. "How out of touch are Democrats at Town Hall meetings?" Ok, got it.

I'm sorry, there was some jerks standing next to me with "Obama is Hitler" signs and I couldn't hear over their screaming. Funny, the news-guy ask one if they had "health insurance" and the guy said no but that he had "Medicare". So the news guy ask why was he here then and the guy said to stop government run insurance. I'm guessing he didn't know that Medicare IS government run insurance.

Rabble rousers? Really? Did you watch the video? Those were ordinary everyday people that don't want the federal government to takeover the healthcare industry.

You truly are one of the reasons this policy will fail. Shouldn't, but it will.

Wow... You would think that a government that wanted to control the health care for all the citizens in the country could at least control a 250 member town hall meeting. That's that good Democrat leadership coming out in them. Yeah. Run right down there and tell them how much you want their help to manage your medical affairs.

What should they have done? Shoot them? We can't all act like Republicans. Imagine how awful that would be if we all acted like Republicans. No scientists. Forced prayer in public schools. No higher education.

You know what that would mean? No big screen TV's. No military complex (except on horses). No microwave ovens.

If you moved all Republicans to, say the deep south, and renamed that a different country, say, "Confederacy", how long before they ran out of beer?

I think it must be time for your medications... Check your watch.

were you born stupid or were you dropped on your head at some point in your life?

I'm going with dropped on his head.

I go with missing his meds. You know the ones for controlling delusions?

I saw the video and read the article.

Pure unadulterated Republican ignorance and rhetoric at its finest.

Firstly, the crowd was largely Republican at the TH meeting, which would explain the ignorance.

Secondly, these people are now harping on about how they "don't want the government to tell them when to end their/their family's lives" when, in fact, under the Republican Regime of Herr Bush they, the guvmint, decided to override a family's decision of end-of-life-care with the Shiavo fiasco.

The hypocicy is staggering.

These people are like The Hulk. They get mad and enraged from watching FAUXNews and start on a rampage. "Republican smash!" They can't hear anything, see anything or think about anything except "No! Must smash Obama/care!" Then they want to get offended when they cool off for 2 seconds they want to get offended they the media has referred to them as less than civilized.

Can you believe these ignorant fucks?

Here I thought the Shiavo case was decided by a court...
What a fucking troll you are....
Terri Schiavo case - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Terri Schiavo case (pronounced /ˈʃaɪvoʊ/) was a successful seven-year long legal effort by Michael Schiavo to have his wife, Terri Schiavo — diagnosed as being in a persistent vegetative state (PVS) for several years — disconnected from her life-sustaining feeding tube, which subsequently resulted in her death by dehydration. As early as 1993, Michael, as Terri's guardian, had entered a do not resuscitate order for her but was convinced by the nursing home staff to have it rescinded; in 1998 he petitioned the Sixth Circuit Court of Florida (Pinellas County) to remove her feeding tube under Florida Statutes Section 765.401(3).[2] He was opposed by Terri's parents, Robert and Mary Schindler, who argued that Terri was conscious. Michael later transferred his authority over the matter to the court, which determined that Terri would not wish to continue life-prolonging measures.[3]

On April 24, 2001 Schiavo's feeding tube was removed for the first time and then later reinserted several days later as legal decisions were made; increasing media attention led to involvement by politicians and advocacy groups, particularly those involved in the pro-life movement and disability rights, including members of the Florida Legislature, the United States Congress, and the President of the United States.[4] In March 2005 President Bush returned to Washington D.C. from a vacation to sign legislation designed to keep Schiavo alive, making the case a major national news story throughout that month. In all, the Schiavo case involved 14 appeals and numerous motions, petitions, and hearings in the Florida courts; five suits in federal district court; Florida legislation struck down by the Supreme Court of Florida; a subpoena by a congressional committee to qualify Schiavo for witness protection; federal legislation (the Palm Sunday Compromise); and four denials of certiorari from the Supreme Court of the United States.[5]
