DEMS UNGLUED: MELTDOWN ON HEALTH-CARE CRITICS
NY Post ^ | August 8, 2009 | Jonah Goldberg

Posted on 08/08/2009 2:21:40 AM PDT by Scanian

THE Democratic Party is pan icking, lashing out like a cornered animal, all because its effort to take over the health-care industry is coming apart like so much wet toilet paper.

Nancy Pelosi, who will get her own bound volume in the annals of asininity, has outdone herself. When asked by a reporter whether the protests at various town-hall meetings represented legitimate grassroots opposition or were manufactured "Astroturf" stunts, she replied, "I think they're Astroturf. You be the judge. They're carrying swastikas and symbols like that to a town meeting on health care."

Now this is a pas de trois of dishonesty, slander and idiocy. Not only is Pelosi lying when she says protesters are bringing swastikas to these town halls, not only is she suggesting that American citizens are Nazis for having the effrontery to get in the way of ObamaCare, but she's also saying that the alleged swastikas are obvious proof that these protests are manufactured by slick PR gurus.

How does that work? What public-relations genius says: "OK, we need these protests to seem like an authentic backlash of real Americans. Make sure everyone has enough Nazi paraphernalia!"

Meanwhile, Sen. Barbara Boxer insists the protests have to be fake because the protestors are too "well-dressed." Likewise, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs says this is all "manufactured anger" because the protestors -- he calls them the "Brooks Brothers Brigade" -- are too tastefully appointed to be authentic protestors. Apparently only filthy hippies can petition government.

"Apparently only filthy hippies can petition government."

They do allow plenty of deranged leftwing moonbats (shown below) as well as the 55 year old balding hippies. They are "normal" according to Nazi Pelosi.

I get a kick out of those at the Town Hall meetings who are identifying themselves as registered Democrats. The “universal health plan” is fast becoming the “universal despised health plan”.

His “Liberal Fascism” is the one of the most important books for all to read at this time. He is right on.

Do now?

Pshaw. Everything they've done since Jan 20, 2009 should be suspect. This is not a recent development. It has finally gotten bad enough that Joe Sixpack is noticing.

The DemoCrooks are running and hiding from the People.

They know what they are doing is wrong, is corrupt, is evil, and these “representatives” know the People know, that they are being lied to their faces.

Sure they want “call in “Town Hall Meetings”..Tjhat way they can have their Union Mobster Thug Technicians, screen not only who gets to ask any questions, but also what questions get “asked”.

They are traitors to their oaths, and are attempting to rule without representing of the Peoples will.

And now they are sending legions of Basiji like goons to attack the People.

By the direction of Mr Obama, violent criminal thugs have been paid and sent out to stomp protesters. He’s criminally guilty. The Unions and the others, are criminally guilty, the violent Union goons are guilty, they are all guilty of a criminal conspiracy to do bodily harm, and have done so based in part on race, which makes them all guilty of the Hate Crimes committed.

Barak Obama had/ordered a Black American man, STOMPED!

How many more will be stomped by his fascist goons?

Our fighting men and women are labled murderers of men women and children in the dead of night by Kerry and Murtha, we are astroturf nazi right wing terrorists by Pelosi, our veteran hero's are now classified as terrorists, we all are country bumpkins holding on to our religion and guns, we are to shut up and get out of the way so they can clean up our mess, we are racists bigots who need to be reminded everyday. Please feel free to add to the list of disdain the demorats have for the American people they work for!

Do up a sign showing a stuffy British General haughtily dismissing the 1776 leaders as the “BrooksBrothersBrigade”.

Bookmark. This piece nicely sums up the hypocrisy of the Liberal health care debate.

It’s getting to them. They tell the media to say it’s just right wing extremists and mobsters, but they really know that it’s ordinary people, of which a good number voted for the messiah and who now regret their temporary insanity.
