1. I guess all those Wing Nut Republicans in Orange County were too lazy to come out in droves

Ahhh, the fair weather Republican. So predictable.

8. hey! the 29th district has nothing to do with Orange country
I grew up there, and Pasadena albeit with its very own rich and stuffy parts... is no Orange County! And that is a very good thing ;-)

We get the worst part of the smog deal though....

12. They may be rich and stuffy... that small number, but the Democrats always win in Pasadena!
And Alhambra isn't that far away.

5. K & R! Great Video; good to see the voices of reason drowning out
the right wing howlers for a change. I hope we see more participation in these town halls by the LEFT in the coming weeks. And yes, let's keep reminding them that WE WON and we didn't need to resort to stealing the office!

11. :) that made my night, btw.
The teabags were pissed and out of steam by that point in the evening. They blew all their energy during the pre-meeting rally, and had nothing left by the end - whereas the steady trickle of pro-reformers ended up with a majority.

20. thanks for the YouTube assist!
It seems to be holding its own with the wingnut-versions of the same event - Thanks to DU'ers, no doubt.

9. Hey, I grew up there. Graduated from that High School in '80.
Wonderful place Alhambra.

I didn't see many single-payer advocates in the video.

Thanks for posting.

16. We sure have a better handle
on sign making. Lol. Neatly printed/painted with accurate spelling! Fact is, I could tell before even reading them which signs were ours and which were theirs.

And did you notice, we make happy sounds? Not mean ugly threatening noise. That was nice, really nice. Thanks

18. 784 views and only 18 recs? What's going on here?
Edited on Thu Aug-13-09 11:07 PM by Turborama
This is what I envisioned America to look like after the election, not all those creepy lunatics screaming and hollering in fear but joyous people with excitement and optimism in their hearts.

WE WON! Something President Obama and our Congress needs to remember!!

Thanks a lot for posting this, it's lightened my heart after seeing all those other vids of rabid mindless mobs.#

Massive :kick:

& a HUGE
