So, they've taken part of my vid and turned it into a tv commercial: People are shouting and angry, sure, but this is not by any stretch an unruly mob... Just watch the vid - anyone can see that. Must've struck a nerve, don't you think? Textbook Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals, number 5: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon."

Rep Doggett met with constituents outside a grocery store in south Austin regarding the health care bill. Apparently the event was mostly advertised in liberal leaning local publications. He did not bring a megaphone, so hearing what he had to say was difficult. When he started making the move to leave, the crowd erupted chanting "Just say no!" His worker got the car ready to shuttle him away but the crowd surrounded it and it took a while for him to get out of the parking lot. The whole time, the "Just say no!" chant continued. It probably won't matter - from his facial expression, body language, and what was heard to come out of his mouth, he's for the the health care bill in its present form and has no openness to change on that.

Mr Doggett did not spend time to get to know the crowd. If he had spent time actually talking to those that were there with an open mind, he would have seen that there was a significant number of Democrats there that do not support the current health care bill.

Please note that I was not chanting. I did not arrive in a bus, and I was not paid to be there. Neither was anyone else that I spoke with. I simply showed up to see what the congressman had to say. His resolve to vote his 'conscience' even if it goes against the desires of his constituents is not at all what our representative government is about.

The implications of this bill for Grandma are not good...

And they do want to or at least expect private insurance to go away:

This video is old news... why is anyone still bothering trying to comment on it??

Comments are done precisely because this is old news and because nothing constructive was being posted... Just Obamacare trolls that appeared to not have a job or were being paid to be in the comments full time.

Get a life and move on, folks.

[dumpdoggett]

Comments are now disabled because the angry lefties are listing names in an attempt at intimidation.

That's all folks.

[dumpdoggett]

Comments are disabled by virtue of the fact that new ones won't be approved.

So, yes, comments are done.

You have to wonder how this group is going to vote Doggett out of office - maybe they do not understand that you have to live in his district before you can vote in his district.

[MrBillyBart]

i dare say the people on this site complaining are not going to vote their republican representative out even though they voted for the TARP mess - there is not that kind of honesty here

[JairEmia]

Excellent we finally found some middle ground, well i have to work tommarow, so im going off the air.

[JairEmia]

No, mine are elseware, sorry i am not willing to give my location, but i already know that all of my reps are going to support this bill, i wrote all of them, with simple questions and asked them, not to support this unless these issues were addressed, i got the same stoupied, copy and paste responses from all of them.

[MrBillyBart]

JairEmia

i would support a public vote - in fact i would prefer that they turn out three or four bills with one total repub and one totally dem and some variations in the middle - winner take all

[JairEmia]

@ Mrbilly

yes i heard about that, and thought the same thing at the time... although i couldn't vote back then.

I see the point you are trying to make, but, just because he was populer back when he was elected, dosen't mean that he gets an automatic green card from all of his people. many may not have know that this would be an issue back when they voted for him.

[MrBillyBart]

AND BTW - Doggett knew that his constituency (even though liberal) did not support TARP and voted against it - ask your representative how they voted - if they are in Texas they must have voted for it
