Katy Abram protester at Arlen Specter town hall on Hardball

[ourblu]

Katy Abram is an uninformed liar who drinks the propaganda kool-aid. She needs to think for herself and apply some critical thinking to information coming from *both* sides of the aisle. Maybe you're "not that smart," Katy? What an understatement.

[TheScorpionBB]

oh god this ignorant sleeping giant needs to go back to fucking sleep or crack a book and learn something instead of spouting off fear based rhetoric based on nonsense!

[omma911]

"The Trade Center is on fire!"

"fish or steak for our wedding guests?"

[LOLMAN22]

hahaha massive ownage

[1lady4freedom]

This guy (Lawerence O'donnell) is an a-hole. Go Katy!!!! You are not dumb we have been at war for a long long long time perpetual wars feed the war money machine. TSL Arlen Spector is a sell out. Do you even know you constitution?

[Ronin2051]

Me I don't care if an idea is socialist, conservative, or whatever. A good idea is a good idea and I'd support it if its proven to work. People need to wake up and stop being enslaved to their personal ideologies.

Folks need to stop falling into these traps where they can't be open minded about different ideas. .

[ddrock23]

Oh my god do people like this woman actually vote? She seems like a very sweet lady but the poor thing is totally clueless. Her husband and FOX news did a kick ass job on politically brainwashing this woman. This was embarrassing to watch and kudos to O' Donnell for taking it easy on her

[architect2741]

The interviewer had no right to ask her how much money she makes, that is a private issue. She is not a professional at interviewing. Besides that is a non issue.

[architect2741]

Katy is correct, she knows the constitution and I am behind her 100%. I too do not wish for Government to take over every aspect of my life. Lets find a way to take care of the people who can't afford health care without involving government in rearranging the whole system.

Government should be limited, if i want trans fat, that's my choice along with soda, juice and yes even cigarettes. Wake up people, look where this administration is going. Do you really want this much government control?

[Ronin2051]

The government isn't telling you what to eat, not to smoke, or consume trans fat. They just want to tax these products because they've caused our country to become sick, cancerous, fat, ignorant, and lazy. This is a fact. If there is no intervention then we'll just consume ourselves from the inside out.

Neither is the government trying to take over Health Care. The point is about eliminating a useless private health care system which acts as nothing more then a greedy middleman.

[architect2741]

Beware because this may look good to you but trust me this much govern. Interference into our private lives will not be good in fact I find it very scary.

[coconnel51]

Evidence as to why I need to breed.

lawrence is soooo badass! he's my hero.

[gfmca80]

quote of the year "We don't talk politics".

[cpesprit]

Dumb, Dumb de DUMB....

How does a no-brain like her get on Television?

...or do I even need to ask.

Totally Surreal - Americans are Embarassing!

[2009lovelywan]

Thanks for shining light on the pervasiveness of the incredible ignorance and hypocrisy of "so called patriots." Poor, Mrs. Abram does not know how much money her family business earns and is unwilling to relinquish "socialist" programs that benefit her family. I have debated with so many wealthy and middle-class WELFARE ROYALTIES just as Mrs. Abram. Keep up the good work!!!

[mexnuk]

According to Katy Abram, our founding fathers "thought and hoped that the goodness of the people would allow the people to take care of those who were doing without." Isn't that exactly what the President is trying to do? She's complaining about not wanting to pay taxes to pay for someone else's healthcare, but then turns around and contradicts herself.

[TheSuperLiberal]

After spending some x-tra time on YouTube for the past week I've come to the conclusion that a "Sleeping Giant" has been awaken and its called the Progressive Democrat.

[rmweav11]

@TheSuperLiberal You're an absolute idiot. A sheep.

[Obzervor]

She heard Obama on TV...'a couple years ago...it was like in 2002'.....WHO watched Obama on TV in 2002? She's with 'them'.  She goes on to assume that people's good natures would lean them to take care of the less fortunate; which makes it absolutely fine and recommended by her, if each individual would contribute; but which she finds utterly despicable if the government was to try to put into act. Is she a plant, or a hypocrite? I'll give her the benefit of the doubt- she is just confused.

[Obzervor]

Is it reasonable if I would suggest that Katy Abrams seems to be a plant? One of the 'dormant cells' now called upon to wreak havoc...on a goverment health insurance plan? Where was she when GW took this country to 2 wars that had nothing to do with Iraq nor Afghanistan? Where is her voice on torturing folks? Where is her voice on the patriot act? Obviously she is cloaked to appear 'vulnerable', but she definitely moves like an assassin.

[yeahokay1100]

her family is funding everything....and the other 130 million working americans...what do they pay for? nothing

[PoliticalFingers]

This is why everyone is NOT entitled to their opinion. She knew she was going on the show. Would it have killed her to do just a little bit of research?

[yeahokay1100]

YES, its called not knowing what the hell she's talking about. Its called ignorance! She's hot shit when she's got her mob w/her but put her on television and she cant get across her thoughts

[Leadman1989]

a gentleman's pwning of a

lady???

well at least she behaved better than ann coulter

[C0ct0pusPrime]

so let me get this straight...the bitch that knows nothing about politics or government wants to tell us how the founding fathers wanted to have the country run?

gtfo

[VesusSheist]

Some of these people are just parrots. They regurgitate the GOP talking points word for word.

Where were the angry fiscal conservatives during W's spending spree?

[daskcool]

We were there. They call us Libertarians. The GOP is a bunch of phonies and W's spree went a long way towards getting them thrown out of the majority. They lied to their constituents and deserved what they got. The problem is that the Democrats didn't deserve to win. Both are part of the same hypocrisy. I have worked on The Hill and have seen first hand how things work. I for one am sick of the arrogant, entitled crap from our political class. Siding with one or the other adds to the problem.

[Chocochoco3838]

Surprisingly, there is no mention of either Capitalism or Socialism in the Constitution. I suppose to fulfill the general economic intentions of our founders we should go back to an agrarian society using imported slave labor. Yes? Or alternately we could all stress the importance of a good liberal arts education.

[lizzyj03]

I just wish that people could stop pointing fingers, and blaming the other side. The whole Republican/Decomcratic party idea is ridiculous. Whatever happened to just doing what is best for the country, not what's best for a political party. We've wasted so much time on attacking others for having different beliefs, rather than being opened minded and maybe finding solutions after considering all ideas. It really is a shame.

[lizzyj03]

I agree with zamiel1, that was a poor examply of our educational system at work. One of the richest countries in the world, and yet a 35 year old woman can't say what the Constitution was founded on. Hell, then again I shouldn't be surprised, we had a woman who didn't know Africa was a continent running for Vice President. Ugh.

[lizzyj03]

This woman was never rude, first off, just simply expressing an opinion. It would be nice if people could state opinions without being torn apart, but maybe people could find a way to grow from it instead. That goes for people everywhere.

[bonzonobeans]

I think you will find that almost everyone supports freedom of speech however -

that does not mean that we support freedom of stupidity.

[whyzeee2]

MSNBC is owned by Obama.

[SpinachSalad01]

I said it when these videos first aired, she was a plant and her interviews prove she has the intelligence of one too.

Too bad people use the SPAM button to censor these video comments whenever they don't want anyone to see something that disagrees with their beliefs.

Check out: Daily KOS: Katy Abram is a 9-12 Organizer (Updated)

It shows proof in Katy's own words through various posts how she is a 9/12 plant and organizer.

Katy...go back to sleep now!

[zamiel1]

Congratulations, America! Here is your education system on display. This empty headed bimbo knows nothing about our history prior to 1991. Probably never heard of JFK, and thinks WW II is a video game like Call of Duty.

Uneducated hillbillies tend to make up the majority of the GOP base and here is living proof. I'd love her to articulate the philosophies of Hamilton, Jefferson, Madison, etc.

So yeah, $20 trilliion for war imperialism is okay, but a single payer health plan isn't lolz

[daskcool]

Yeah I am sure you give a shit about the philosophies of Jefferson and Madison when they get in the way of some left agenda you want. Maybe she is not very sophisticated or as informed as the average news junkie. But this is the messiness we accept when we agree to live in a Republic. Perhaps you are the ignorant one Zamie. Just because someone disagrees with you doesn't make them ignorant hillbillies.

[jtdoles333]

Really now?

June 30, 2003, Obama said "I happen to be a proponent of single payer health insurance."

And leave it to a liberal to resort to name calling.

[esb84]

"I heard it on TV a couple years ago", bitch, he didnt even bring it up until he was running for president! So I guess her husband sends her to a town hall meeting to insult a senator for things she knows nothing about.

[yankeegurl62]

Why are you afraid of what she has to say. You called her rude, what did she say that was so rude? Was it that she was/is a woman who knows what she isn't willing to put up with that is so threatening? want to see someone rude....try Ms. Clinton.....now that wench is rude, and hateful.

[jtdoles333]

I want to know how in the world was this lady "rude", as said in your description, when throughout this interview she was nothing but polite.

[shadywilder]

This can't be real. She's kidding, right? NOBODY could be that friggin dumb.

[leeroynaggins]

You have awakened the sleeping giant morons...

[dejahthoris]

LOL

[ImagePhreak]

Beeker, I, glad you are so smart, please forgive us dumb asses, for we know not waht we say. JACKASS!

[beekerfromtec22]

I would be shocked if this lady could even tell me one thing about the Constitution other than her right to have guns is protected under the 2nd Amendment and her right to shout at a Senator in a town hall meeting is protected by the 1st Amendment.

[bfif23]

And I'll bet you want those taken away too huh? To you it doesn't even matter what the constitution says. You don't pay any attention to it anyways.

[daskcool]

And she should just shutup and never get involved in the political process unless she agrees with you right?

[starkweather444]

The know nothing teabaggers are pathetic and being led around by corporate health insurance interests. But I actually felt sorry for this woman, talk about in over your head.

[ImagePhreak]

How ironic that liberals call everyone clueless and dumb, baahaaa!

[ThhhTribe]

I felt bad for Katy Abram, but I give her props for going on the show. Glad that they went 'light' on her. It is unfortunate for her that she wasn't informed or political savvy up until this point in time, but at least she is starting. As for people disrespecting her priorities that she chose family over politics, get real. Family is one the most important priorities we have and definitely lies above politics. But I have seen the same type of uninformed vote for Obama - it works on both ends.

[beekerfromtec22]

This has nothing to do with being politically savy. It's about being intelligent. If you are going to be a rabble-rouser and start touting phrases like "what the founding fathers wanted," you should know what that entails. You see shit like this way too often with right wingers, using buzzwords like founding fathers, patriotism, and saying the pledge of allegiance as a proxy for legitimate debate.

[ThhhTribe]

And legitimate debate isn't generalizing people the who disagree with you by saying they just simply use buzzwords. That is just ignorant. Are there people out there who just use buzzword because they can't explain there point? Of course, but the left has the same exact people also. I've had intelligent debates with democrats, and I've also had debates with those on the left that don't have a clue. But you have to realize, it goes for both sides of the aisle.

[AJAX556]

This one too.......

[JimmyFormerMarine]

LIBERALS SUCK!

[AJAX556]

Way to LIE there Lawrence...

/watch?v=fpAyan1fXCE

-------

YES or NO....Did Obama say he thinks single payer would come in 10-15 years?

[Roxie21]

Did you hear that America? She was not concerned about 9/11 nor Afghanistan nor Iraq,

"I always seem to have faith in the govn' & honestly I didn't really care. I had other things going on; getting married having children."

She had VERY IMPORTANT SHIT going on America! She was trying to GET MARRIED and GET PREGNANT and that is WAY WAY WAY more important than your petting mourning, terrorist attacks & wars that just seem to be going on all the time.

[ptamt899]

She may not have been very politically savvy in dealing with this guy, but we should all be a little cautious about a government trying to run another 10% of our economy. What have they run properly to this point? Education? Social Security?

At least she was a little better informed than Robert Gibbs! What a dork he is...

[SpinachSalad01]

Join the "TP Katy Abram's Home" Campaign. If everyone could just spare one roll of toilet paper for Katy and her family I'm sure she would be grateful as it would go a long way towards alleviating her fears of having to stand in line during the next great "TP Shortage". Just forward your TP rolls to either your local FOX News affiliate or to their Publicity Office at:

[TheSuperLiberal]

Thats too funny, and a great idea.

[SpinachSalad01]

I've already mailed my roll off to FOXNews and I wasn't cheap about it either...2 ply Giant Roll of Charmin. The good stuff!

[susanbhotnot]

misdirection the real crap is in D.C.

BOTH SIDES

[SpinachSalad01]

Let FOXNews forward it on to them then...would make for an excellent message.

[TMundo]

@SpinachSalad01 nobody complained when Bush bailed the banks out, where was katy then? when we spent billions on two wars & didn't catch bin laden, where was katy then? As soon a a new president gets in office, and spends money to fix the economy & help people pay medical bills Katy wakes up, but where was she during the 8 years of wastful spending?
