Grass Roots Healthscare Anger Called "Sham" by DNC


There's panic in the insular hallways of the DNC and the 'Chicago Mob' in Washington.  Today we received a propaganda email from the DNC claiming that the anger in the streets over Rahming socialist healthcare down our throats was a "sham".

Just after Obama was elected President, we decided just for yuks to take him up on his disingenuous offer to email him with ideas on how to jump start the economy, even though we knew is was (dare we say) a sham.  Our reward:  Spam-mail from the DNC.  They now think we are one of the faithful flock. 

Obviously, they couldn't be more wrong.

Below is the text of the email we received (twice today for some reason) from the DNC.  In it, the Democrats claim that pro socialist healthscare politicians getting attacked by their constituents at Town Hall Meetings are paid-for, organized, staged attacks.  Concerned angry citizens are now characterized as a "mob" by a sneering condescending DNC.  As an assumed Marxist comrade, we are urged to counter the counter-revolution before it gets "dangerous".

Take note Obama:  Angry Mobs vote and that is "dangerous".

It is no small wonder why the DNC/'Chicago Mob' would think this is organized skulduggery, because organizing paid ambushes is Obama Senior Adviser David Axelrod's reported specialty.  We are not surprised that the Obama machine would be incredulous that the man-lovefest for Obama could dry up so fast by a slowly arousing nation.  But drying up it is, and it's already six months overdue.  Instead, as you can see for yourselves below, the paranoid Democrats ASSume that they are the ones being ambushed by 'the enemy', as they cite John Kerry/Swift Boat ad campaign as an example of conservative "astroturfing" (the practice Mr. Axelrod above is lauded as an expert).  While astroturfing is not beneath either party, the Democrats fail to realize that the mounting anger in the streets is organic, not staged, bought or contrived.  As Obama and the Chicago Mob correctly worried, the more time that ordinary people have to learn and comprehend what the 1000+ page House bill on socialist heathcare really means, their support base will disintegrate.   And they're right, because that is exactly what's happening.  And it is for this reason and this reason only that Obama attempted to impart a sense of urgency to the passing of this horrendous bill.  He knows full well that if this legislation is fully aired in the light of day, that only the die-hard socialists among us will support it.  Thankfully, die-hard socialists are still a small minority in this country.

Of many things, one thing that jumps out at us more than any of the propaganda flowing out of the White House, is how those bird-brains currently in power fail to realize that all those angry Americans are not going to appreciate having their genuine concern/alarm characterized as a "sham".   When the disgraceful Senator Arlen Specter stood before a crowd in Philly and remarked that the legislation needed fast decisions, an already angry crowd went apoplectic.    Philly is not exactly a bastion of conservatism either!

We don't belong to any political organizations.  We have never declared a party affiliation for elections.  No one pays us to heap criticism on the Marxist/Socialist Democratic Party and President.  It's a free public service.

Below is the full text of the email we received from the DNC:

There's been a lot of media coverage about organized mobs intimidatinglawmakers, disrupting town halls, and silencing real discussion about theneed for real health insurance reform.

The truth is, it's a sham. These "grassroots protests" are being organizedand largely paid for by Washington special interests and insurance companieswho are desperate to block reform. They're trying to use lies and fear tobreak the President and his agenda for change.

Health insurance reform is about our lives, our jobs, and our families-- we can't let distortions and intimidation get in the way. We need to exposethese outrageous tactics, and we're counting on you to help. Can you readthese "5 facts about the anti-reform mobs," then pass them along to yourfriends and family?
    5 facts about the anti-reform mobs

    1.
    These disruptions are being funded and organized by out-of-districtspecial-interest groups and insurance companies

    2.
    who fear that healthinsurance reform could help Americans, but hurt their bottom line. A grouprun by the same folks who made the "Swiftboat" ads against John Kerry iscompiling a list of congressional events in August to disrupt. An insurancecompany coalition has stationed employees in 30 states to track where locallawmakers hold town-hall meetings.People are scared because they are being fed frightening lies.These crowds are being riled up by anti-reform lies being spread by industryfront groups that invent smears to tarnish the President's plan and scarevoters. But as the President has repeatedly said, health insurance reformwill create more health care choices for the American people, not reducethem. If you like your insurance or your doctor, you can keep them, and thereis no "government takeover" in any part of any plan supported by the Presidentor Congress.

    3.
    Their actions are getting more extreme. Texas protesters broughtsigns displaying a tombstone for Rep. Lloyd Doggett and using the "SS" symbolto compare President Obama's policies to Nazism. Maryland Rep. Frank Kratovilwas hanged in effigy outside his district office. Rep. Tim Bishop ofNew York had to be escorted to his car by police after an angry few disruptedhis town hall meeting -- and more examples like this come in every day. And they have gone beyond just trying to derail the President's health insurancereform plans, they are trying to "break" the President himself and ruin hisPresidency.

    4.
    Their goal is to disrupt and shut down legitimate conversation.Protesters have routinely shouted down representatives trying to engage inconstructive dialog with voters, and done everything they can to intimidateand silence regular people who just want more information. One attack grouphas even published a manual instructing protesters to "stand up and shout"and try to "rattle" lawmakers to prevent them from talking peacefully withtheir constituents.

    5.
    Republican leadership is irresponsibly cheering on the thuggish crowds.Republican House Minority Leader John Boehner issued a statement applaudingand promoting a video of the disruptions and looking forward to "a long,hot August for Democrats in Congress."

It's time to expose this charade, before it gets more dangerous. Pleasesend these facts to everyone you know. You can also post them on yourwebsite, blog, or Facebook page.

Now, more than ever, we need to stand strong together and defend the truth.

Thanks,
