Just Watching MSNBC & Tamron Hall Interview The Woman At Steele's Town Hall......
Advertisements [?]
All she wanted to do was ask a question and felt frustrated by the format of the Town Hall - the had to write down questions and none were answered. So she stood up and yelled out to Steele.

That's not what I really wanted to comment about even though the way Steele treated her was deplorable.

What set me off was Tamron Hall. This lady was making a point and said something to the effect that her mother is dead now - but what she is concerned for is the 47 or 50 million people out there that don't have health insurance.

Tamron Hall stopped her and said - "I got to ask you this - because you used the numbers (47-50 million people)you are not from some organization that put you up to yell out at this Town Hall are you?".

The girl said "no" she's a waitress in D.C.

What frosted me - just because this girl might have followed the debate on health care reform and knew something - like 47 to 50 million American's don't have health insurance - she was suspected of being a plant.

Does Tamron Hall expect all American's not to know those figures? Does she feel that we're all dumb and stupid and can't quote numbers and we're not informed? That really pissed me off.

So now if you know something about this issue - you are suspected of being put up by some organization or group.

What has happened to this country?
