2. Nice to know the airheads aren't just sitting in front of the tube all day...
..they are getting out on the streets and getting a chance to mingle with other morons with the same incoherent ideas as their own.

God, help us. WE ARE a NATION OF MORONS. This clip just shows a sample. What a bunch of f*cktards.

3. They really aren't bad people, like the disrupters
at the Town Hall meetings. They are just so mis-informed. Eg, the 69-year-old lady. Someone needs to ask her if she is currently on Medicare because if she is accepting that program, then she is totally contradicting herself. But I think she genuinely doesn't know that.

The woman who said that Obama's plan is 'single payer'!! If only that was true! But it shows she does not know what Single Payer is, which means her mind could be changed if she did understand.

And the objection to Small Businesses having to pay premiums. WE AGREE WITH HER! Single Payer is what she wants, but she doesn't know it. There would be no cost to any business if we had Single Payer.

The Dems have done a terrible job of educating people about Healthcare, but that is probably on purpose, as they are against Single Payer also and I am sure that once people understand it, a majority would support it.

I was not upset by most of those people. I just wish we could talk to them. They seem like ordinary, nice people who have been very mis-led.

4. The interviewer
appeared to be very sympathetic with all the misinformed sign-wavers. Which made it even more annoying.
