The American People Are Speaking Out Against Obamacare - Part II

Continuing on the same subject of health care reform and the resistance by the public to it that's been building, let's look at more reports on activities around the nation. This is a compilation of links from Instapundit and other sources, making them a little easier to find.

********************

In Simsbury, Connecticut a crowd confronted Representative Chris Murphy (D-CT) during one of his 'supermarket town hall meetings', making known their displeasure with Obama's health care reform and their current Senator, Chris Dodd.

********************

In Raleigh, North Carolina Congressman Brad Miller had a number of protestors across the street from his office. The protesters had to resort to the across-from-the-office location because Miller had decided he wasn't going to hold any town hall meetings to discuss and shill for Obamacare.

********************

In Atlanta, Georgia the questioning must have gotten to Representative David Scott (D-GA) when he lost his temper after a constituent asked him a question about health care reform during general purpose town hall meeting.

********************

John Dingell's (D-MI) Health Care Reform town hall meeting didn't go all that well, with attendees deriding his claims that the bill as written would solve health care problems across the board. Anyone that's taken the time to read the bill would know that isn't even close to the truth. As one of the authors of the bill he should know that.

********************

Even the Washington Post is having questions about the health care reform bill, particularly Section 1233, which deals with so-called “end of life” counseling.

********************

Representative Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) has been avoiding her own constituents, being a no-show at one of her own events.

********************

In Memphis, Tennessee a town hall meeting hosted by Representative Steve Cohen (D-TN) was less than cordial as approximately 500 attendees loudly debated the health care reform bill with Cohen and each other.

********************

More to follow.

A big tip of the hat to Instapundit for the links I've consolidated here.
