    That video must be a lie! LeBuick, you know it's only the Democrats that do things like this. Certainly a God-honoring, country-loving person would never do such a thing as this republican plant did.

    The truth is that the republican party will go to any ends to sabotage any real debate about health care reform.

    So then.... you're saying the only legitimate discussion or protest must be by a democrat or non-party affiliate?

    ......................This is so juvenile........

    I know people who have 'helped' in persons campaigns without even belonging to a party.... and I know people who are considered still 'party members' in good standing who haven't paid dues or who have changed registration..... So what?

    Whether or not we all want to admit it, both sides are guilty of offenses in these town hall meetings.

    No all offenses are equal.

    Republican/conservatives yelling and shouting is not the same as Democrats/liberals beating and kicking people.

    OK, then.

    So can we assume...since one person was shown to be dishonest, the entire argument was invalidated? Opposition to this plan should be discounted because one of the opponents wasn't honest?

    Are you sure you want to go there? That won't work so well for you statist folk, either...

    This comes from one who supports the man (just a man, nothing more) that said, " 'I don't want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess..." (SOURCE)
    Riiiiiight...

    I wonder what LeBuick will say to justify this particular politician?

    Tensions are running so high at town hall meetings that Rep. David Scott, a Georgia Democrat, yelled at a local doctor concerned about health care after mistaking him for an "astroturf" political operative looking for a fight.

    http://www.washingtontimes.com/webl...a-democrat-rages-against-local-doctor-over-h/

    from the story:

    Obviously, this doctor was a "terrorist," working for the evil insurance companies...right, LB? :rolleyes:

    I will say I wasn't there so the only thing I have to go on is this story. Not knowing the motivation of the stories writer, I won't comment.

    Perhaps she was just mimicking our dear leader the father of liars.

    You missed the point, like I said in the other thread, true spontaneous protest is being diluted or ignored because political operatives are pretending to be grassroots citizens. It makes it so you don't know who to believe. It is not my fault RBell but unfortunately, yes, that means no one gets believed.

    What I do know is the REAL victims are the civil American's who came to respectfully discuss, give input and learn about the legislation. Their voices are being silenced because of the operatives and those who feel they have to protest spontaneously. As RS said, that comment is directed at both sides of the isle.

    Funny...you seem more than ready to jump to conclusions as to the motivations of opponents of government healthcare.
