Speaker Pelosi warns of "out of district, extremists" coming to a town hall meeting near you

While we are watching these right wing extremists being bused in by lobbyists, "K" Street in D.C.; these organizations are feeding on a underlying racist, hatred from these individuals. This is not only unhealthy but extremely dangerous. Below from Keith Olbermann:



These individuals have been all over television, hell we saw them during the general election campaign. The same types calling Barack Obama a terrorist, "kill him", etc. This type of talk is again, not only dangerous, but a turn off to many Americans, whether you voted for Obama or not.

Now we have these same nut jobs, disrupting health care forums by democrats all over this country, using lobbyist, GOP talking points. I must write, some are so dumb that they are talking about don't take medicare away from me, when medicare is a GOVERNMENT RUN PROGRAM. Hello? Intelligence? Again, does something have to HAPPEN for this to stop?
Unfortunately, those not interested in health insurance reform are disrupting public meetings and not allowing concerned constituents to ask questions and express their views. Many of these opponents who are shutting down civil discussion are organized by out-of-district, extremist political groups, and industry-supported lobbying firms.

This is typical gangster, thug style the GOP is playing with. I hope Democrats around this country are enlisting the local police, they will need it.

Nobody has ever contacted me about joining a "mob". My desire to be heard is the same dessire that every American who feels they are being ignored has been attempting since the inception of this country.

Why is it that it is civil dissent when Acorn and SEIA organize demonstrations but when common citizens mobilize to show thier displesure with the direction the government is going, that is now "gangster mob rule" ?

Seems that someone who called being a community organizer as a qualifying factor to beincoming president would be proud to see communities organizing and expressing thier consitutional right to be heard?

Calling us names only makes us more determined to see our voices are being heard!

Obviously you have not seen these town hall meetings. Created for chaos and not to discuss issues. Made for K Street, GOP talking points because the Republican Party is bought and sold by the insurance and health care lobbyists. When you have no answers to issues, you create chaos. These groups have already been identified as being created by the lobbyists in Washington, DC. I have no issue in discussing the real issues, but manufactured chaos to scare folk is something else, and that is gangsta, thug like actions.
I've seen them and have been looking forward to attending one this evening. What I have seen are real citizens with real disgust over being completely ignored by thier representatives. Granted, I would prefer that this be a civil discussion but when the administration and thier political party uses name calling and dismisses a portion of the voting public names much as they have called the president the last eight eight years (believe me i'm no supporter of the Bush policies), this level of frustration is enevitably the result.

When Bills are pushed through without deatils and means of paying for the plans....yes, people get upset.
