People REALLY angry about health care don't have time to go to the town halls
They are too busy WORKING to pay for their medical issues out of pocket.
This should be beaten like a drum, right over the heads of teabaggers, turfers, birthers and the industry that funds them at the meetings!
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6345876I would think the people wanting free health care wouldn't be able to afford the gas to go to these things.
They are too busy sitting in the ER getting free care to attend town hall meetings.

4. Most of them look like they're on Medicare to me.
Uhh maybe if you had some understanding you would realize that Obama is going to slash medicare. If they are on medicare as you suggest they are protecting their own interests. I do wanna know how you can tell if people are on medicare or not just by looking.

5. Yeah - this has been a complaint of the right for a long time
that our protesters, anti-war, anti free trade and the like, are a bunch of bums who have time to go protest in stead of work.
I don't know that I buy it.

Where would we get that idea, when a lot of DUers keep saying they have been unemployed since the first Bush was in office.
