Have Town Hall terrorists united Congressional Democrats?

[BirminghamExaminer]

Excerpt from article:

The health insurance industry and Republican lobbyists who have bussed extremist zealots to town hall events around the country are helping to unite the Democratic party. It would be nice if the Democratic party could be united without the help of Republicans, teabaggers and lobbyists, but at least it's finally starting to happen. The resolve with which those who are attacked and who witness the extremist attacks at town hall meetings has been tremendously strengthened by these screaming terrorist like extremists.

Though some Republicans are still maintaining the absurd notion that the rowdy disrupters of the democratic process at town hall meetings are part of a 'grass roots movement', the truth is that the screamers have scripts and directions on what to do at town hall meetings courtesy of Freedom Works, an organization with ties to Dick Armey and health insurance lobbyists.

Though Fox news entertainers appear to be quite gleeful about the intimidation and disruption of the democratic process, the 'astroturfers' as they are called, have managed to unite Congressional Democrats more efficiently than anything anyone else has tried.

Not only are these uncouth town meeting terrorists uniting Congressional Democrats, they are also having an effect on the people who have come to the meetings to discuss their doubts about health care reform. Just watch the real participants of these town hall meetings when they are held hostage to the hijackers of democracy. They are bowing their heads, holding their hands to their heads or their mouths and it's clear they are appalled. The vast majority of Americans want health care reform and these are the people who are trying to discuss the issue with their representatives. But a small fringe minority have been sent by lobbyist groups like Freedomworks to prevent the majority of Americans from having their say.

1. I should hope so. They cannot be seen as giving in to this type of

blackmail.

2. If Dems are NOT united after this, they deserve to lose their seats. nt

3. Blowback.

4. If their minds functioned like those of ordinary compassionate human beings

then the answer would be "yes".

But if their brains functioned like that, there would be no reason for this bullshit, because there would have already been a single payer plan passed.

5. Maybe it will scare them enough to start working on legislation

to rein in the out of control Ruppert Murdoch and Corporate controlled media by bringing back anti-trust laws and breaking down the huge corporations so that there is diversity and real competition not monopolies.
