Before I start getting inundated with lib pushback that the right wingers are the violent ones, let me remind you all of two things that have come from this modern era leftist movement in America. Back during the campaign, Obama encouraged his supporters to be very much in the face of those who worked against him:
“I want you to argue with them and get in their face…”
Now, Obama is telling his drones that it is time to “get fired up again.“
But there is another rule issued down from on high. This time, you are not only to get in their faces, but “punch back twice as hard:“
Top White House aides gave Senate Democrats a recess battle plan on Thursday, arming the lawmakers with tips for avoiding disastrous town hall meetings while showing them polling on popular aspects of the reform effort.
Senior White House adviser David Axelrod and deputy chief of staff Jim Messina told senators to focus on the insured and how they would benefit from “consumer protections” in the overhaul, such as ending the practice of denying insurance based on preexisting conditions and ensuring the continuity of coverage between jobs.
They showed video clips of the confrontational town halls that have dominated the media coverage, and told senators to do more prep work than usual for their public meetings by making sure their own supporters turn out, senators and aides said.
And they screened TV ads and reviewed the various campaigns by critics of the Democratic plan.
“If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard,” Messina said, according to an official who attended the meeting.
Well, it seems the left has the “hit” part down, and from some videos I’ve seen, they are adding the grab, push and stomp methods of debate as well.
Historically, the Libs are known for violent protests. For some reason, Bill Ayers comes to mind.

Will you publish the memo different GOP groups are circulating telling folks how to be confrontational and how to interrupt the reps?
This all goes back to the influence guys like O’Reil and Beck have on our public. They can make the most small minded people get into an uproar and go crazy…….We saw it will Tilller being killed. Call a man a killer and a nazi etc. enough times, someone crazy out there is going to act on it.
Again, these people think their health insurance is going away. They think this is an assault on their freedoms. It isn’t. There is going to be a public option. If you don’t want it, don’t buy it. Simple.
I think the reasons these are so heated is because they are still stinging from being beat so badly in the elections. There are so many people that hate Obama so much their vigor and distaste comes out any chance they have.

Martin,
I didn’t get that memo. Frankly, I don’t think it exists.
As far as the influence talk radio hosts have on society, gimme a break. Surely there is somewhere esle you can talk your DNC talking points.
The left has CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR all in their pocket. But Fox News is controlling everything.
Perhaps Martin, people see that this is a bad thing. This is an attack on their liberty. This will lead to single payer.
You have to be a fool to believe otherwise. It’s come from the mouths of Democrats, Martin. Barney Frank said the public option is the best way to get single payer. Jan Schakowsky said this will destroy the insurance companies.
You have to be willingly blind to not see what will happen.

Arnie Duncan US Secretary of Education Admits that much like the Chicago Public School system that he once headed, more then 50% of Americans sent to Re-education Camps do not graduate.
Americans that do not graduate from Re-education camps are sent to Siberia (formerly known as Detroit)
90% of Chicago Public School Children Believe That Military BARRACKS used in the American Re-education camps are named in honor of President Obama.
Stopthepresses psychics (psycho chics) using advanced crystal ball technology predicts that very soon the used car market will be flooded with repossessed cars. Thanks to the government’s Cash for Clunks program, giving money to people that otherwise could not afford to buy a new car and keep up the car payments. Another home mortgage type fiasco brought to you by the Democratic Party.

Why is it that Democrats do the very thing that they claim Republicans are doing? They say that the Republicans headed this ‘unruly mob’ to be at town hall meetings, even though there is no evidence to support it. Now, however, they are telling their small army (ACORN, SEIU, AFL-CIO) to be at these meetings and physically get in people’s way to prevent these ‘small dissenters’ from being heard. this is tyranny almost. People aren’t thinking anymore, they’re being told how to respond and acting like mindless robots. the town hall meetings WERE peaceful. I was hopeful that people were waking up and things might begin to change. Now, I’m fearful again, but for the safety of those who would dare seek HONEST ANSWERS to serious questions.
Barack Obama himself said that he wanted ‘single payer’ health care. Why do people not listen to what he says before he gets in a position of power and it’s convenient for him to lie to all of us? Same with other politicians (sonya sotomayor for example).
Blah blah blah, she said she won’t use empathy in her rulings… but she has a history of using empathy in her rulings for 20 years or more. she has the “most judicial experience of any nominee the last 20 years”. yes, that is true. do you know what is also true? she’s been overturned more than 50% of the time when her cases made it to the Supreme Court that she now sits on.
