President Obama and the Democrats are so panicked over the outrage being expressed at Democrat town meetings they refer to the concerns and opinions of millions of Americans as "manufactured" and label protesting citizens expressing their First Amendment rights as "angry extremists" for voicing their opposition to President Obama's government-run healthcare reform rush.
President Obama is so concerned that he implemented an opposition surveillance program -- Obama's version of the President Bush era terrorist surveillance program -- that is of questionable legality. The DNC is even out with a way over-the-top ad bashing those trying to exercise their right to petition their government.
Compare the Obama/Democrat reaction to opposition to that of the Bush Administration, which used such dissent as an opportunity to highlight our rights and freedoms, rather than to try and diminish American liberty as are the Democrats.
Haven't the Democrats seen the multitude of public opinion polls showing that a majority of Americans believe Obamacare is a bad idea? Are the Democrats so out of touch that they are surprised that Americans are concerned about a $1 trillion-plus so-called healthcare reform? Do they care?

And now the FASCIST Obama and his Brown Shirts are out in force using the full weight of the Federal government to come down on all dissenters.
THIS IS FASCISM FOLKS. THIS IS CHANGE you all voted for.
"Macon Phillips, who asked on an official White House blog for members of the public to forward questionable claims to the administration.
"There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation," said Phillips.
"Since we can?t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we?re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov," said Philips."
The only Brown Shirts here are the looneys disrupting the Congressional constituency meetings and posting comments like yours. The right wing called Roosevelt a fascist too, shortly before joining America First and kissing Hitler's behind.
Brown shirts coming down on all dissenters?
Surely, you channel the Drama Llama.
Jim, is THIS the way it should be done then?

Read this and see if you can see the similarities between Obama and his tactics and Fascism.
www.econlib.org/library/Enc/Fascism.html
"Where socialism sought totalitarian control of a society’s economic processes through direct state operation of the means of production, fascism sought that control indirectly, through domination of nominally private owners."
AIG, GM, Chrysler, CITIBANK. All now "nominally private owners"
"Under fascism, the state, through official cartels, controlled all aspects of manufacturing, commerce, finance, and agriculture. Planning boards set product lines, production levels, prices, wages, working conditions, and the size of firms."
Not "cartels" but CZARS!
"To maintain high employment and minimize popular discontent, fascist governments also undertook massive public-works projects financed by steep taxes, borrowing, and fiat money creation."
Self explanatory!
I think a $4500 credit falls a bit short of that...
And who empowered all of these evil "AIGs and CITIBANKs"etc. etc? Why the good old Republicans under Phil Gramm & Co. I didn't hear you folks using the f-word about him and Bush. You're just confusing monopoly capitalism and fascism. You should give up your medicare if you don't like civilized public health programs.
Dan Spencer,
when I read your stuff, it makes me happy. It shows me that Republicans are so out of touch with reallity that 2010 and 2012 are in the bag for Democrats. Dan Spencer,please stay exactly as you are (at least until 2013). THANKS!
And thank Rush and all the "birthers" for me!
Oh, and Steele,too. Oh, and Beck, give him a huge thank you from me!
You all stay exactly as you all are!
Oh man, I almost forgot Palin. Please thank her for me and please don't let her read anything until after 2012.
the healthcare reform is only for people who do not have health insurance and for the people who buy their own health insurance. it doesn't have anything to do with the people who get health insurance through their employer.
you can tell the outrage at the healthcare town hall meetings are mostly staged. if a person is so outrage common sense would say. 'let me hear what is being said about healthcare' as oppose to yelling and shouting where no one at the meeting can hear the speaker. That is RUDE. Did our manners go out the window?

I hate my HMO...most people I know hate their HMO...HMO is the insurance employer get when they can't afford the expensive insurance that only union workers and tv personalities get (which is most people)...I was just declined by my HMO this month for a drug my doctor prescribed...Most people with HMOs would gladly switch to "Obamacare"...it can't be any worse..."oh, but it can"...NO>>IT>>>CAN'T! HMOs>>>SUCK
you know what I would love?
when "Obamacare" passes, I hope they issue Obamacare Medical Cards (get this...) WITH OBAMA'S PICTURE ON THE CARD...I would just love to see all the conservatives have to carry a picture of Obama in their wallets!
Why are they so focused on coverage rather than costs and quantity rather than quality?
It seems to me, if Obama should attack fraud and abuse in the current programs (social security, medicare, etc) and get those fixed before adding another mistake, abuse prone government program! This is laughable!
And now the Obama Administration is spying on people and to report on their neighbors.....is spying on people even legal?
Since they cannot defend this reckless "healthcare plan" they want to try to hurl names, smear and intimidate them and lashing out at the American Citizens....this is going to blow up in Obama's face.
Congressmen dodging Town Hall Meetings are going to be joining many Americans in the unemployment line pretty soon!

I see you copied and pasted Hannity's transcript almost word for word...can you conservatives ever think for yourselves instead of dittoing everything Rush and foxnews says?...there is no show on tv that I don't question and weigh the facts before accepting their facts. I don't accept anyone's "facts" as a block...I analyze each section for probability of truth (you can never take anything as 100% truthful without a bias...if you do, you are a fool)
