The Democrats have been having "Town Hall" meetings all over the country to solicit support for their socialized health care plan and answer questions from citizens. However, they have been encountering angry citizens and raucous crowds at a number of locations. Democrat speakers are being laughed at and booed by the crowds.

RE: HCAN—Responding to Right-Wing Attacks in the Field - August 4, 2009
Since early February, we’ve seen increasing numbers of militant right-wing activists attending public meetings across
the country targeting Members of Congress and [Alleged] President Obama. Now in the August recess, the “tea-bagger”
protesters and right-wing activists are showing up in larger numbers with a mission to be as disruptive as possible in the
hopes of rattling Members of Congress and halting health care reform through pure spectacle and obstruction.

Leonard Lance Mobile Office 6 Aug 2009
Nevertheless, they made their opinions known to the Congressman's staffers and urged Mr. Lance to hold a town hall meeting on this issue as soon as possible.
On Aug 6 citizens of the 7th district in NJ convened at the Cranford Community Center to voice their concerns to Congressman Lance over the proposed health care legislation. Unfortunately, there was a misunderstanding: they believed it would be a town hall when, in fact, it was a mobile office outreach and Mr. Lance was not present.
MICHIGAN TOWN HALL MEETING - JOHN DINGELL BOOED
Nevertheless, they made their opinions known to the Congressman's staffers and urged Mr. Lance to hold a town hall meeting on this issue as soon as possible.
Kathy Castor's union thugs beat up a guy (in the green shirt - evidence 3:21) and shut the doors to prevent the opposing opinions from being heard. She then proceeded leave, not taking any questions, because "she couldn't hear."
Several speakers talked about older adults and aging. Some people were getting impatient and voiced their discontent . Finally the moderator announced she was going to read the questions that were submitted. The crowd booed because we were not told that questions were to be written down. The one and only card she read was a three part question that allowed Carnahan to address some of the "misconceptions" about the health care bill. Then Carnahan announced he had to leave and slipped out the back door amid boos and jeers. So much for a question and answer town hall meeting!
