Democrat Representative Rush Holt from New Jersey's 12th Congressional District ripped a microphone from the hands of a woman constituent at a town hall meeting a few days ago, denying her right to speak further. The town hall in question occurred this past Monday in a Marlboro, New Jersey, middle school. When constituent Rhoda Chodosh got up to ask her question concerning healthcare and also voice opposition to the kind of socialized healthcare that Obamacare is all about, what did she get for her right to be involved in her local community? Bully Democrat Representative Rush Holt ripped the microphone right out of her hands and denied her the right to continue telling her congressman exactly how she felt about his performance!

The folks of New Jersey need to look for the phrase within the constitution that begins with, “We the people...”.

You elected him, New Jersey. He’s your problem, at least until November.

Maybe the Rep is trying to land a spot on that show “Jersey Shore”.

Why should brilliant, intellectual, really smart,
genius-type Democrats have to suffer the presence of dumb, knuckle-dragging, ignorant, un-informed constituents who
read and listen to nazi-like publications and tv and radio stations?

Liberal/Progressive/Democrats know everything about what’s good for the people; they love the people, they want to nurture them like the children they are and take care of them and they want to silence those who stand in the way of such nobbility.

Everyone should wake up to the fact that Democrat brilliance is and will be the saving grace of all mankind, as it reaches everywhere, into every nook and cranny of the world.

So, when Democrats are voted into super-super majorities by the enlightened constituents, and our present, beloved president is crowned “BEloved Leader in Perpetuity”, the world will be transformed into utopia.

/SARC/

IMHO

We can’t expect socialist to act like normal freedom loving people. This is the nature of socialism, this is who they are. Walk in lock step with them, because everyone else is to stupid to know what’s best for them and the country.Or shut up and sit down. They want zombies not citizens.

Looks like you might have cut and pasted that directly from the mission statement of the Democrat Party, or perhaps DU.

From a linked article, Holt is quoted:””I need to hear from you in order to speak on your behalf — to let (government) know what is working (and) what is not working in New Jersey,” Holt told the jeering crowd. “It has been a tough time for families in New Jersey and throughout the nation.”

Apparently that is not quite true....He doesn’t want to hear...like all of them he wants to lecture.

What an arrogant bastid.

You elected him, New Jersey.

No New Jersey didn't elect him.
Only the idiots in his district did.
They're the only people he represents...

I can’t wait for these traitorous POS LIBs to go out and campaign for votes.

Get the popcorn ready and tell the children to leave the room.

This guy's a gift!! We need to get it posted everywhere Dems would look...."RUSH ACTS LIKE A JERK--See it here!"

Of course, I maintain most Dems have never seen nor heard Rush Limbaugh, so they probably wouldn't know it's not him.

Freepers make these kinds of stupid statements continually. Do you actually believe that everyone in his district voted for him?

They are what and who they are. (And they’re becoming more transparent as they feel more powerful.)

Again, agreed. They think that the election of 0bama and the Democrat Congress is clear cut, bright line proof that America is ready for socialism, and that the only thing preventing us from entering that utopian world is a gutless bunch of DINO's.

I feel like I'm through the looking glass every time I go to DU, I'll tell you.
