By the way, here is some video of respectful disagreement, asking tough questions and demanding facts at a Town hall event. By the by, the gentleman depicted with horns on that poster is Representative Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas):
and lets not forget the Cindy Sheehan's antics...setting up a tent and rolling in a line of porta potty shitters to set up outside Presidents Bush's property..
now that was some real classy respectful PROTESTING..
this one here show's even more respectful protesting.....you have to wonder how this ass was even allowed to get this close to the Secretary of State...
WASHINGTON, Oct 24 (Reuters) - An anti-war protester waved blood-colored hands in U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's face at a congressional hearing on Wednesday and shouted "war criminal!", but was pushed away and detained by police.
"The blood of millions of Iraqis is on your hands!" yelled the protester, Desiree Anita Ali-Fairooz of the Code Pink organization which often disrupts hearings on Capitol Hill with protests against the Iraq war.
Rice, an architect of President George W. Bush's Iraq policy, appeared unfazed by the incident, which occurred when she entered a House of Representatives meeting room to testify at a hearing on U.S. Middle East policy.
"Out!," shouted the chairman of the Foreign Relations committee, Rep. Tom Lantos, as plain-clothes security men and police hustled the woman away. The California Democrat also ordered the removal of several other Code Pink activists.
Capitol Police said later five people were arrested, including Ali-Fairooz, who was charged with disorderly conduct and assault on a police officer.
She was also charged with defacing government property for smearing the red paint from her hands on the hallway wall outside the hearing room. The other four protesters faced disorderly conduct charges.
like I said, get ignored enough and people will raise their voices. nothing wrong with that. At least they didn't resort to the rooftops, something I know you libs think unimaginable.

Yeah pick on a poor mother somewhat deranged over the loss of her son due to the lies Bush and Cheney told to get their war.
But Iraq is a democracy now so everything is ok?
Are you saying that liberals never participate in shouting out the opposition?So sitting in a tent is akin to what is depicted in the video? Here's a test.
This is an apple:
This is an aardvark:
Can any right-winger tell the difference between the two pictures?

Well, right now I have no access to any video pages, but I think it is likely people can find many times where liberals used the "shouting out" strategy during "protest".I have learned in my years to not use the terms "never" and "always." What I am saying is that what these knuckleheads are doing is not what some are claiming they are doing. They are not engaging in debate. They are not simply asking questions. They are not demanding facts. They are not demanding information. They are just disrupting with the purpose of preventing any dialogue at all and shutting down the meetings, nothing more.
I will also say you will be hard-pressed to find any examples of liberals engaging in this type of behavior at town hall meetings which prevented the meeting from even being conducted. I'm open to being proven wrong on this but so far we have Cindy Sheehan camping at Crawford, code pinkers holding signs and code pinkers being arrested after minimal disruption at a congressional hearing.
This sounds HORRIBLE!!!
and having THE GOVERNMENT running your health care, telling you what treatments you can have and if the cost isn't too high...at a certain age they just tell you to go off and die, you are not productive anymore, anyway..
that sounds LOVELY cause my Government cares for me...
My number 1 objection is having a government database with my private information, the assumption that it will never be misused or abused in any way is preposterous.
My number 2 objection is the reality that the US is down some on mortality of infants and in some other categories because we are often willing to push for risky strategies to attempt to save people that may not have had that chance in other places. Such risks tend to be avoided by government programs, shoot some of them consistently speak of lower technology because of the programs (see France).
Do you plan to ever stop lying?
Try to at least get a handle on it. It's pathological.

how the hell do you know what I was doing for the last eight years..??
or is this back to this imaginary friend you have living up in that warped head of yours you can't seem to get rid of...
that's why I never take anything you say serious..you are cuckoo
I am talking about that database being held and controlled by the government. The same government we hold a right to privacy against... It is stupid to give up one of our most important freedoms so we can have another step towards cradle to grave care. I'm sure we can find a reasonable way to get it done without giving our most private information to the government to keep care of.Are you talking about the moving of paper information over to an electronic database, which will save 20 billion a year?
It isn't government run. And people in France tend to live longer than people in America anyway.
