Jim Harrison – “I did watch CSPAN coverage of several townhall meetings, however, and witnessed hour after hour of thuggish behavior on the part of people who were as ignorant as they were impolite. The goofy premises of the movement were all on display.” You’ll need to clarify. Were these the members of Congress or were the citizens in the audience thuggish, ignorant, and impolite? The ignorant ones could have been Congress since they hadn’t passed the bill yet and according to Speaker Pelosi it to be passed to find out what was in it.
I like the brown-shirt comment. For the ignorant masses out there Nazis wore brown-shirts. The Nazis shouted down, assaulted, and intimidated those that dared to speak out against them. They also excelled in ad hominem attacks by calling people stupid and uninformed.
