At Town Hall Meeting With Pre-Screened Questions, Vitter Mocks
Democratic Concerns Over Protesters

Yesterday, Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) held a town hall meeting in
Pineville, LA, attended by nearly 1,500 people. The discussion mostly
focused around health care reform, and Vitter said that he is “totally
and unalterably opposed” to the proposals being put forth in Congress.

At one point, however, an attendee asked Vitter about the confrontations
at Democratic town hall meetings around the country. Vitter seemed to
mock his colleagues, saying that although he had been advised to have
“security” for his town hall meetings, he “told them the best security
is to do what the people want you to do.” He added that “the angry mob
is always welcome at my events.”

Ironically, this Pineville event where Vitter made these comments was
full of pre-screened questions. According to a report from Pineville’s
local paper, The Alexandria Town Talk:

The Louisiana Republican spoke at what was billed as a town hall
meeting at Louisiana College’s Guinn Auditorium. It was a friendly
audience but there was little chance for disagreement to be expressed.

The panel of speakers all joined Vitter in opposing the reform
package being debated in Congress. Questions from audience members were
screened and selected in advance of the event.

So much for welcoming the “angry mob.”



How...Republican-like. I wonder how many hookers were in that audience?

I still remember all the Bush people getting shouted down and verbally
assaulted every time they responded to an invitation to speak at a
college so this is not a new tactic.
Both are wrong.

In several cases they were assulted too.

who done this to the (D) congressman?

Well, let's wait till we actually find out who did it and what their
motive was. There is no suspect so far as we know. Unlike the Obama
Hitler sign the other day from a guy who later turned out to be on the
pro health care pro union side later in the evening....
