This is the gentleman who threw a shitstorm fit at Arlen Specter's Town
Hall meeting in Pennsylvania yesterday. The rant was classic TV soundbite shock jock material but once again lacked any detail. So much misinformation. So much fuzzy math going around. So much anger. Where is this anger at Obamacare really coming from? Has the nation ever been this mad over the idea of a bill?
Alot of the anger at Town Hall meetings has to be bigger than Health Care. It's about opposition to where Obama sees the country going, who will pay for it. Disagreement is normal. Dissent is a right. Yet let's remember the next time a Republican takes office and wonders why the the Dems have hatred in their eyes too. George Bush Jr felt this wrath in 2000 as he himself tried to reach across the aisle. Partisanship is the biggest wedge in the country. Forget the isms. The nonsensical blind adherence to a political party too often makes a mockery out of our system and makes individuals come off like jackasses (see photo above).
Be upset but shout with purpose, knowledge, direction and focus. Have a better plan to contribute and do it in a way that doesn't insult, but respects those who may not agree initially.
