So the politicians are going home and have to now face their constituents and are getting lambasted by the voters over health care reforms. In response we have the political elite saying:

\"Nancy Pelosi claims protesters are \"carrying swastikas and symbols like that to a town meeting on healthcare.\"

\"Sen. Boxer: 'Well-dressed' protesters at Town Halls are out to 'hurt our president'\"

Funny I don't recall these esteemed ladies having anything to say when Code Pink disrupted hearings and meetings.
I don't recall either of them being upset when not so well dressed protesters prevented the head of the Minutemen from speaking at Columbia University.
I don't remember anyone on the left denouncing war protesters as being Nazis.

And speaking of war protesters, where are they now? Have I missed something? Are all our troops now home safe and sound?

I hope all this disclosure about how the recent “grassroots” protests, have been fabricated, bites them on the ass the next time they use the tactic.

Never mind…I forgot about those short memories.

Even the Cobert Report is on the bandwagon…Anybody who believes conservatives write that show, has to be…

The Colbert Report is a sarcastic parody of a conservative talk show. Anyone with a brain can see that.
It's never good to wake up in the shrubs naked, you either got way too drunk, or your azz is a werewolf.
