So, a fool from South Carolina yelled out You lie! at the President while he was delivering a heath care talk to a joint session of Congress. Of course, Rep. Joe Wilson's spontanteous planned outburst blew up in his face. Even his apology is crap.
So now we have congressmen turning joint sessions of Congress into common town halls, and yelling out any fool drivel that pops into their ossified heads. Come on, it's fun. Not the disrespect itself. He should be censured. What's fun is to watch this thing shift on its axis a little because the crazy's come all the way out of the bottle.
And now, all the shouty people at the town halls are stuck with their king, who made such a fool of himself that his opponent, by the end of today, will have raised a million bucks to defeat him.
Which brings me to Rush Holt. He's got two town halls today. One, in Somerset is already underway.
But you can still get to the town hall at 2:30pm today, at the Performing Arts Center, Monmouth Regional HS in Tinton Falls. Bring your questions and your concerns, because Rush Holt's one of our Health Care Heroes, and he's got answers for those questions. And considering how some of these town halls have gone, he might appreciate your showing up today. |
