From the August 6 broadcast of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show:

Union Voter Fighting for Health Care Refrom and trying to guarentee Honest Debate: THUGS.
Vile, lying piece of sh!t who should be recycled for fertilizer: Limbaugh
Last night, Matthews displayed some fine hate speech from Rushbo, but still took care to call him an "entertainer."
Let's get lists of the dissenters...secret lists
PARANOIA has its DOUBTS.
I doubt you took your argument when complaining about the wiretapping.
This a President asking to be notified of misinformation so it can be corrected. You know, so the people of America can be better informed on the topic? Unlike Bush, who willfully lied about WMDs in Iraq, and suppressed intel proving he was lying, just so he could play cowboys and Indians with the lives of real Americans.
Here is the first paragraph of the article you referenced, dexteritas0071418. I've helpfully highlighted in bold the reasons why I think it's funny that you take this seriously.
Yes, and in a quantum universe, it could also lead to flying monkeys.
This is the kind of madness that keeps me out of your party, dex. What is it about this statement that makes you think that Obama is compiling a list of average Americans as "dissenters"? And what is it you think he plans to do with this? And where did you stand on the idea of G-Dub to secretly wiretap citizens??
Do you see that your ideology is controlling your every thought and opinion? It's crazy.
From a report by the Tampa CBS affiliate:
Go figure, teabagging hick resorting to violence and civil unrest. Scum.
Just what in the sheol does that have to do with this topic? Are they dealing with a distinct and particular question of American domestic policy? Do these "protests" even happen in America except for when the G8/10/whatever meets in an American city? Are they sending death threats to American politicians?
*crickets*...
Care to say on topic?
What a shock that the events turn violent once the union thugs arrive
Don't forget your free bumper sticker:
PROFITS OVER PEOPLE
puppienrainbows, in case you've missed it (and it looks like you have), President Obama is taking exactly NO action regarding health CARE. He's not going to close hospitals, or tell doctors how to do their jobs.
What he IS proposing is adding an alternative to for profit health COVERAGE. You know, a little competition to bring costs down?
People who disrupt public discourse between a people and their elected official for the purpose of advancing the profits of the insurance industry -are- scum. Why? Because that's what their OWN ACTIONS paint them as.
If you're interested, call Cheney. He already tried to get the National Guard into Buffalo, New York, to round up American citizens. Why? Because he is a fascist.
You only call him Ceasar Obama because you're still upset Bush had to be appointed, since he had absolutely no chance whatsoever of being elected. I get it. It's dumb, but I get it.
The attempt by the right-wing to shut down democracy, by sending out these fascist thugs, should be obvious to even ditto-heads...but they rarely comprehend even obvious things.
Hey, why don't you just admit that you'd rather violently overthrow this country than see the Democrats in charge? That you'd rather inspire enough violence in your listeners that blood ran in the streets rather than abide by the result of an election? That you're a selfish baby who throws a fit when everything in the earth does not immediately bend to his will, as most conservatives lately seem to be? (You can contradict this last point if you wish, but first name me all the Democratic governors who tried to secede from the union during Bush's tenure.)
God Bless ALL Americans, Mr. Rush.
P.S. Rush, I think a man who really cares as much as you should show up and be out front for your people. But no, you slither around like the snake you are and expect everyone to things for you. Talk about ENTITLEMENT. You are the definition of that word.
Where is video of the rest of the meeting?
Was there a true discussion or just teabaggers shouting down any meaningful discussion?
It's pretzel logic, driven by emotion rather than thought, and it is killing honest debate about what is, after all, an important topic for all of us. They have no ideas, they have slogans. They have no champions, they have talking points. They have no compassion, they have stock options.
This link shows how the second group was dispensed with, look at how violent they were, mistreated the single police officer and were waving nazi flags.
There is only so much room in any public building, as defined by local firecode. Once you reach capacity, that's it. There, now, does that make it all better?
Two questions
1. If fire code a concern, why were the union people allowed to stay after the 'set up'?
2. Any evidence of a bus, except maybe the thugs from the old folks home using their van for an outing?
And thanks for asking, yes, I'm beginning to feel better now. :)
Question 2) From the video, there is no evidence. Hey, there isn't any evidence in that video that man landed on the moon, either, so maybe that's fake? It's apparent, and has been proved, that a majority of people who show up outraged in groups to disrupt these town hall meetings were gathered for the purpose by a lobbying group paid for by the health insurance industry, proudconservative. The talking points and instructions on how to shout down discourse on this topic have been leaked and published. Far right wing groups, shilling for the insurance industry's profits, have been taking credit for this.
Again,
#1, Why were they let in early to 'set up' the room ahead of the others? She directly askes the man who stood at the doorway.
#2. So there is not evidence on this video or anywhere else that these are individual citizens acting without the financial support of an outsider, say a union office, to show up to protest obamacare?
I'm feeling even better now.....thx
By 'set up', do you mean unfolding chairs, positioning the lectern, that kind of thing?
2) Nope, no evidence in this video. Still great big gobs of evidence all over the net and TV about groups bused from place to place by lobbyists for insurance organizations though.
Individual citizens? Did you think I imagined that they had been magically joined together into One Big Citizen? A group is still composed of individuals, proudconservative, even if they all arrive on the same bus from the same place with the same instructions to shout the same things and act in the same way.
Glad you're feeling better. It will pass.
I see you changed the subject..so, "Adios, amigo". That is Hispanic..but not sure if it illegal or not.
Enjoy our special chats, princess.
As CNN has some jackass saying that these people "were from the left too..."
Outrageous!! These People were NOT! They were there for nothing more then to Shut them down.. heckle.. And disrupt. There was no want of Debate.. they were a Mob! I know it is an issue to have the police come in due to the whole ... blaa blaa Brownshirts for Obama... line, but come on! These people where breaking laws.. disorderly conduct? Disturbing the peace? I am sure there is something in the Patriot act... (LOL)
These Right wingers keep screaming " Hear my voice! Hear my Voice!"
WELL SAY SOMETHING!Anything but "NO!"
"NO!" is NOT a debate!
