Boehner's Office Cheers On Disruption Of House Dems' Town Hall Events

In the latest development of Democratic House members' town hall meetings being disrupted by the Tea Party crowd, House Minority Leader John Boehner's (R-OH) office is now applauding this turn of events.

"Back home for the August recess, rank-and-file Democratic Members of the House are facing a backlash from their constituents, who are already fed up with Washington's job-killing agenda and don't support Democrats' government takeover of health care," says a press release posted on Boehner's official blog.

The release then recounts the nasty reception that Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) has gotten, and declares that "Rep. Doggett is not alone."

The posting concludes: "Unless Democratic leaders agree to work with Republicans on a bipartisan plan that achieves real reform that Americans are seeking, it will be a long, hot August for Democrats in Congress."

What a bunch of assholes.

fuck 'em all.

hurts democracy, but they believe that democracy hurts democracy. What an insult to the American people! I wonder if the American people realize...

Maybe we should attend HIS and let him see how it feels?

when and where he would be holding his town hall meeting regarding health care reform. Surprise! No response. The Repugs aren't holding town hall meetings...cowards.

Mine's Rep. Alan Boyd (D) FL.:
"Close to 100 sign-carrying protesters greeted Rep. Allen Boyd (D-Fla.) at a late June community college small-business development forum in Panama City, Fla." http://news.yahoo.com/s/politico/20090731/pl_politico/25646

1993 all over??

It's MADDENING :banghead:

Boehner is the worst.

People are being paid to disrupt Town Hall Events.

We outed those bastards on the internet. Cameras ready!

Many of these white secessionists and tea party types Boehner is supporting are already operating pretty close to the edge from a mental health standpoint and don't need much encouragement to cross that line and hurt someone. It's just a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

This is Freepers and birthers disrupting townhall meetings because they're terrified of honest debate.

Civility is at stake and could be lost. I for one will never say the pledge of allegiance at the behest of a Birther/Tea-bagger.
