August 3rd, 2009. The Woman's City Club, the Cincinnati Woman's Political Caucus and the Cincinnati Chapter of Now co-sponsored a Forum regarding Health Care Reform, with Rep. Steven Driehaus answering questions from the crowd.
I recall an old saying that, "When all intelligence fails, resort to insults and screams." There are sincre concerns and fears that exist out theree, but rather than allowing them to be answered by someone who has been hired by them to do so, These bozos are paraphrasing Chester A. Riley by saying, "My head is made up. Don't confuse me with the facts." Treqat them with pity.
This is appalling and un-American. The people disrupting this conference are trying to drown out intelligent debate of how to fix health care in the US. The congressman is trying to get feedback from his constituents and the hecklers don't care about the democratic process.
It is obvious that there are Tea Baggers at this conference who may not even be his constituents. They are yelling out slogans and talking points. They're not speaking from their personal experience.
