Reid Confident Despite, “Loud, Shrill” Interruptions at Town Hall Meetings
ABC News ^ | August 4, 2009 | Sunlen Miller

Posted on 08/04/2009 1:02:37 PM PDT by Oldeconomybuyer

Democratic Senators emerged from their working lunch meeting with President Obama at the White House today confident that they would pass health care this year, comparing the President’s lunch invitation as a “pep talk before the game.”

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada) called out what he called the “loud, shrill voices” that have been interrupting town hall meetings across the country held by Democratic members of Congress and members of the administration on health care reform.

“In spite of the loud, shrill voices trying to interrupt town hall meetings and just throwing a monkey wrench into everything, we’re going to continue to be positive and work hard.”

Senator Dodd (D-Connecticut) said that they are willing “to nail down legislation and work with the house” on this. And emphasized the importance of returning from August recess with a “renewed senses of purpose.”

Hey, you rabble rousers against Health Scare, the white house wants to know who you are:

There is a lot of disinformation about health insurance reform out there, spanning from control of personal finances to end of life care. These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or through casual conversation. Since we can’t keep track of all of them here at the White House, we’re asking for your help. If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.

Democrats should prepare themselves for new careers if this bill is shoved through congress.

They have stuck their dirty little fingers in their deaf ears.

Hey Reid, we're AMERICANS. Listen to us or ignore us at your peril!

Such respect for the people he serves.. Elected officials will have their comeuppance. Their stature is low already. It will go much lower.

Hey, Harry. I am one of the ones voicing opposition to the Health Care Plan. My name is Jeff Head. Turn me in.

You and your ilk of tyrant wanna-bes are stirring the ire of the American people...and it is scaring you. You do not trust the people and you fear the truth.

Well, we are educating ourselves and are going to hammer you mercilessly over this bill and your other initiatives that are destroying the free market and fundamental republican principle.

Here is a link to the full House Democrat Health Care Plan in PDF. In Section 1233 E & F, pages 426-433, you find the part about mandatory end-of-life counseling for anyone over 65 years of age. Section 152 Page 50: All healthcare services will be provided without regard to "personal characteristcs" which is not defined within the document but is understood to include immigration status.

Section 224 b Page 125: The Secretary shall design and implement the payment mechanisms and policies under this section in a manner that — (1) seeks to (B) reduce health disparities (including racial, ethnic and other disparities).

A lot more provisions now being documented at that site.

Donwload it, read it, study it, then hammer your reps over it and pass it on to all you know asking them to do the same.

Also, here's a large image of the Democratic (Obama) Health Plan chart-another Obama empty promise. This is the one the House democrats are censuring. Email these links or the image to everyone you know.

Obama and all those pushing his radical agenda are abject marxist ideologues. Their "fundamental; change" is nothing more than a destruction of the American free market and fundamental republican principle.

When they say they are feeling confident, believe the opposite. The scared sh*tless.

They're only protesters if they're protesting Bush, if they're protesting Obama they're racist mobs.

Dirty needs to feel the heat. He is in trouble here in Nevada, and we are trying to get a serious GOP contender up against him.

He is full of dirty tricks, and a couple of contenders have found themselves charged with crap like they accused Sarah Palin of.
Sure keeps the voters spinning, which is exactly what Dirty Harry wants.

I don’t know how this senator sleeps at night.

White House to congress: If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.

And we'll forward it to the IRS and the FBI and the Secret Service and the BATF and the CIA.

These people make Nixon look like a piker.

In other news democrats still promise to ignore the will of the people and pass more laws to give government more control.

Let's see. HR3200 seems pretty fishy.

On a serious note, it would seem that the time to rat out your neighbors has officially begun.

p.s. Is the fishy comment especially for the Chief of Staff?

I’m sure Sunlen Miller didn’t get any of her information from her old colleague from ABC aka team Obama, Linda Douglass, the communications director

Yes indeed, we are going to shove it down your throats no matter how much the American people do not like it. That’s the spirit!
