Everytime I see these videos of people at these town halls I am thinking the song by Linkin Park “One Step Closer…” Especially the lyrics:

Shut up when I’m talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up when I’m talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up

I’m about to BREAK

Response #1 – name calling
Response #2 – name calling plus “I don’t take sides….” as a criticism of Israeli policy. Priceless.

“The meeting was inflitrated…”

Um, by whom? ACTUAL constituants? The American public? People concerned over what this bill actually going to do to American healthcare?

Yeah, real people are concerned– and should be. Need a new knee for mom/dad/grandma/grandpa? How old? Oh, they’ll be fine, wouldn’t really have it broken in by the time they die.

The arrogance and hypocrisy of these Dems is just unfathomable. At least Dingall took the meeting, even though he’s such a (unprintable) he just doesn’t understand that HE works for the people of his district. A lot of these Dems are now hiding from their constituents, somewhat literally.

This is grassroots here people, not ‘astroturf.’ And its gonna get worse, what with the WH encouraging violence against dissent. Public meetings are public, not to be sectioned and roped off just ’cause politicos can’t handle the heat. Maybe they should try listening to their consituents and voting accordingly rather than the DNC/WH.

Wish these people had woken up before last Nov.

Why is it that the only response we hear from all these weasels at their so-called “town hall” meetings is “this meeting was infiltrated by trouble makers”??? Not any actual answers or responses to the questions….

And of course today we see that, yes indeed, these “meetings” are infiltrated by troublemakers- thugs brought in by the democrats to intimidate and beat people (i.e. service union jackbooters seen in other vids). Oh wait– the dhimmos have had thugs working with them since BEFORE the election, ala “New Black Panther” intimidators, ACORN “get in their faces”, etc. etc. etc… “punch back twice as hard”…indeed.

Remember when union workers used to be the real Americans- the tought, no-BS patriots that used to stomp hippies and other anti-American miscreants??? How the hell did the dummos get control of the UNIONS?!? Where’s Jimmy Hoffa when we need him? 😉

To the Dishonorable Senator Dingell

How can Dingell NOT be against Hezbollah? Is Dingell for or against the U.S.? If he isn’t against Hezbollah, then he is against the U.S. Hezbollah is our ENEMY!! They kill Americans and Israelis and are terrorists!! Take a stand, Dingell. Let the American people know who you really are.

Excellent article. I’m hearing more and more people around me talking about this topic. I probably attract the conversations because of my debating libs at work. Funny what happens when nationalized euthanasia pops up.
Dingel has been unfit for service for a long time, by his own admission.

Joe on August 7, 2009 at 12:21 pm

Dingell and the cronies in congress are employing fast footwork on this bill. Today, I heard Dingell on the radio attempting to sell the bill.
*He says HE wrote the bill. (though he admitted he hadn’t read the whole bill)
*He says that the current system is broke (because 49 million are not insured–didn’t acknowledge that this number includes all those do not want to be insured/opt out and 16 million illegals)
*Says it has zero dollars for abortions (??)
*Says it prohibits care for illegals(he calls undocumented aliens, and calls for a check on citizenship. Then he said the reason we need to pass it quickly is so we can deal with “immigration reform” (make all illegals legal)
*Said the bill will not increase costs (totally lost me on this one, I don’t know what he said for “why”)
etc etc etc

The spin machine is in full gear.

BB on August 7, 2009 at 12:26 pm

Simply put, Dingle is a DINGLEBERRY JUST LIKE JOHN “WON’T READ THE BILL” CONYERS!

Bob Porrazzo on August 7, 2009 at 12:30 pm

I now know how the French peasants felt in 1789 when they stormed the Bastille and started building guillotines.

tempus fugit on August 7, 2009 at 12:52 pm

Dingell needs to retire. He’s been in office longer than Castro, Hitler and Stalin..the other socialists. I’m a retired independant, don’t work for an insurance company, I’m not part of a right wing extremist group or on Obama’s enemies list (although I may be headed there). I DON’T WANT BIG BRO SCREWING WITH MY HEALTH CARE!

Bill Buchanan on August 7, 2009 at 1:34 pm

Why has his constituents been dumb enough to put this guy into office for the last 50 some years, that he said?…Good Lord, I’m old, and this guy was in Washington BEFORE I was born…WTH?!?…They just can’t seem to wrap their minds around the fact that people are standing up to them…Protesting was fine against Bush, it was okay to draw swastika’s on his signs or call him Hitler or hatemonger or warmonger…

Anyone remember when you would turn on the news and see the lastest casualties from the war for the day from the MSM?…Anyone seen a death report about our troops on the MSM since Obama took office?…No?…Amazing isn’t it?…Odd how the protests during Bush years was “Democratic”, now, Conservatives are Extremist, Birthers, Trouble Makers, Thugs…And to top it off, an e-mail given out to write the White House if you know someone who is against the government healthcare legislation…Welcome to the United States of Socialist America

So sad that the geriatric crowd has to start a revolution that was long overdue. Founding Fathers must be rolling over in their graves. All the youth in this country are doped, roped, and liberalized into the ozone. Sad, sad times in America.

JohN HENRY on August 7, 2009 at 5:35 pm

50 YEARS ….oVER 50 YEARS??????? wait america is a democracy….yeah

shmujew on August 7, 2009 at 5:53 pm

Could not agree more JohN HENRY

Just wait until all the unemployed benefits start to expire then you will see anger by their constituents.

People are starting to realize that our own congress has been outsourcing their jobs and in sourcing their replacements thru illegal immigration and H1B Visas.

Remember all the pols saying how great outsourcing was for the global economy?

Those townhall meetings are going to result in some pretty angry people and may even start a revolution in this country.

I have been ready for one for some time now and will gladdy join in as my patriotic duty to oust these traitors.

ScottyDog on August 7, 2009 at 5:54 pm

Dingel said “I don’t take sides” after Hezbo attack on Marines.

Yes – history does repeat itself; President Obama did not want to take sides following the rigged Iranian election.

Iran has now murdered 7 lawyers who represented protestors. Does Obama still want to remain neutral?

FZ: You have apparently chosen to look the other way on the many posts on this site establishing that the protestors are as much allied with Hezbollah and as much extremists as the government in Iran. Wake the heck up. The more they kill each other, the better for us. Obama is right to stay out of this. HARDLY the same thing as not taking sides against Hezbollah. Siding with either side in Iran WOULD be siding WITH Hezbollah. Sometimes you need to be reasonable and act with some actual knowledge, rather than just going with whatever suits you in your attacks on Obama. There is plenty to attack him on. This ain’t it and is completely ignorant. DS

Oligarchy :ol?i?gar?chy. Pronunciation [ol-i-gahr-kee]
–noun, plural -chies.
1. A form of government in which all power is vested in a few persons or in a dominant class or clique; government by the few.
2. A state or organization so ruled.
3. The persons or class so ruling.

If our government had descended into an Oligarchy, and some suggest it has, John Dingell would be the Kingpin. I mean the person with most seniority…

RoadsScholar on August 7, 2009 at 8:21 pm

I think it is time for Representative Dingell volunteer to become a biofuel. He will save the environment and his constituents any further trouble.

sorrow01 on August 7, 2009 at 9:58 pm

With all the auto jobs disappearing from Michigan, maybe he won’t have anyone to represent soon. We really need term limits in the Congress.

BONNI on August 7, 2009 at 10:53 pm

Debbie

I absolutely agree with you about your comment to Frank Zavisca. Most of these Iranians are still enemies of the U.S. However, I do have a couple of friends that came to the U.S. from Iran and they are good people who don’t believe in the Iranian way. I’m sure there are more like them who live in Iran. That being said, I wouldn’t shed a tear if the U.S. and Israel turn Iran into a hugh glass parking lot.

Jarhead on August 8, 2009 at 11:26 am

I totally agree. 50 years is an embarrassment.. embarrassing for the state of Michigan.. I heard him on the radio yesterday state ” I always vote my conscience”.. That is the problem mr. dingell… you have no conscience.

sharon on August 8, 2009 at 12:00 pm

If this is an indication of more to come, and I think that it is, these so called public servants are going to be very afraid of the torches and pitchfork crowd. It is about time. The breaking point is going to come when they go after the 2 nd Amendment, when that happens God help them.

Nuke Iran? I don’t think so. NUKE D.C.!

Rahm Emanuel’s brother Ezekiel J. Emanuel medical doctor and now an advisor to Obama’s campaign wrote an article with Margaret P. Battin in 1998 called “What Are the Potential Cost Savings from Legalizing Physician-Assisted Suicide?” in the New England Journal of Medicine.

http://content.nejm.org/cgi/content/full/339/3/167

Who is Margaret P Battin? Battin wrote an article years ago called “Age Rationing and the Just Distribution of Health Care: Is There A Duty To Die?” on Page 69 of link.

http://books.google.com/books?id=AqW-pUR4BxYC&pg=PA69&lpg=PA69&dq=Should+Medical+Care+be+Rationed+by+Age%3F+battin&source=bl&ots=NUD6lMtii6&sig=pzRoVBLw-73XWaDmSWbAaJ9b794&hl=en&ei=hG9-SpHoO5D8tAOE8bzvCg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1#v=onepage&q=&f=false

Conspiracy theory or laying the groundwork for Euthanasia? Who are these people that have Obama’s ear that will make decisions on Health Care Reform?

Is there a Duty to Die?

CaliforniaScreaming on August 9, 2009 at 11:02 am

Your Mom – pull your head out of your a$$!! How many Israelis do you see strapping suicide vests on their children to blow up the so-called Palestinians (aka terrorists)?

Jarhead on August 9, 2009 at 11:56 am

50 years in congress?? holy s–t, get this guy out of hear and all incumbents, time for new blood.

Mervendo on August 11, 2009 at 8:31 am

Debbie,

Please get your facts straight. The savage Muslim atrocity took place on Sunday October *23* 1983, not October 3rd. And Reagan was the president who did a beautiful impersonation of Jimmy Carter by cutting and running, allowing Syria and Iran to get away with the savagery. But then again, he always allowed the Muslim terrorists to kill Americans when it came to Lebanon (embassy April ’83, Robert Stethem, and many other incidents).
