I left after the congressional staffer for my rep, the AARP
representative and two other people (I don't remember who they worked
for - Dodd or Lieberman) said that they couldn't answer specific
questions about the bill itself - they could only discuss "policy
issues" related to the health care bill.
That would seem to be understandable. The bill is not in it's final
form. Plus, as you say, there is a very good chance they haven't
read it in it's entirety.
I'm sorry my friend, but it's not understandable.

I'm taking the time to read it, understand it and get specifics,
directly from the bill, ask questions and participate as a citizen. I
would expect our political leadership to do the same.

I might also point out that informed, concerned citizens are being
called a "mob" for participating in Democracy - as is my right, your
right and everyone's right.

I have a feeling that this is only the begining of the push back.

It's about time.

And you have known liars like Pelosi (remember the CIA issue which has
been squashed) saying she is seeing swasticka's at these meetings and
of course that is bad. Fact is, nobody can find a picture of the
health care oppositition bearing swasticka's at any of these meetings.
However the news showed dozens of pictures of them at anti bush
rallies, hitler mustaches, etc... I guess it's only ok if it's brown
shirts like ACORN, code pink, and Union officials..

Oh, and they are the only ones allowed to enjoy freedom of speech..
it's getting pretty bad..

Freedom of speech at a town hall meeting means you listen to the
presenter, you ask questions, you get answers, and you are courteous to
your fellow citizens who are there to ask questions, get answers, and
learn from the dialogues.

Of course, you and your kind fear that sort of dialogue.

No, that's your MO here, WAFA.
