Astroturf! Fake local support for Obamacare at fake "town meeting": Aug 11 2009

On Aug 11, 2009, President Obama had a fake "Town Meeting" in Portsmouth, NH. To make it look like New Hampshire supports Obamacare, hundreds of people were bused to the event from other states. Free State Project activists caught them red-handed.

Awesome Dennis, just awesome. The statists' plan is nothing more than smoke and mirrors in order to gain government control of our healthcare system.

Not surprised. How do you know a leader is maniacal? Well, when he does things like this. Similar to how leaders of places like North Korea, China, and Iran pack their public events with supporters.

Fucking idiots Mass. is less than a 10 minute drive to NH. The rally was awesome though.

I'm sorry but I hate Obama.

[looseperfection]

guess what... the majority of NH voters voted for President Barack Obama.

To be fair, this was an event involving the president so there was nothing wrong with both sides representing other states. It was a regional event and two of the anti people I interviewed were from Mass. It was not a local town hall meeting.

That said, conservatives didn't bus anyone in. I think that is the bigger point.

LOOK at this enthusiastic Obamamob!!!  So motivated and passionate. It's a sight to behold. Their energy is overwhelming. Did you fear you would be trampled?

Obama's administration or one of these groups being paid for by someone within government sends these people out.

Haven't you heard. J.P Morgan the huge bank that received our tax dollars as a bailout gave ACORN 5 million dollars. I wonder what for?

I have to disagree. Politics is about power, pure and simple. I expect all politicians to do this. The only counter forces are a) the ROI calculation b) what they think they can get away with. I don't think "maniacal" is a factor.

Don't fixate on Obama or any other public figure. They're just faces. Their job is to be obsessed over by you so that those who really pull the strings are left alone.

Who says social engineering is a dead art?

Brilliant and hysterically funny. Good work Denis!

X D LOL Thank you for posting this. How did you keep from laughing !?! These ultra committed Obamacare supporters look like they just woke up from their naps or maybe they're a little car sick. They act like they just got on the bus to join their friends for a lovely drive. Nothing else to do today. Maybe do a little antique shopping....

They already have it, they just want more.
