Rep. Keith Ellison's Town Hall & Dodge Ball on Health Care

Written by Nancy LaRoche on 03 August 2009.

U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison (CD5) held a town hall on health care Saturday, with guest panelists (proponents of socialized medicine). That didn't stop citizen opponents from asking tough questions and raising concerns. Watch Ellison's reactions and dodges. Via Dan McGrath at Facebook:

A bit of the "comments" phase of Ellison's town hall meeting. Wouldn't even answer questions.

YouTube poster "the2012revolt" remarks:

Witnessed 1 hour and 15 minutes of Propaganda clearly designed to scare the citizens into supporting Health Care bill. No true debate, only propaganda and time for "comments". About 50/50 support. Held at "wellness center" in north Mineapolis. Good anti-Ellison turnout.

 

I'd rather say it was a good anti-socialist turnout. Despite the last-minute notification, it was encouraging to see a packed room of concerned citizens. Knowledge is power - keep up the heat, folks.
