Tampa blogger says town hall crashers are listening to the "fat man and the crier"
Edited on Sun Aug-09-09 01:09 AM by madfloridian
Three guesses who he means. This is a very interesting blog post from a Tampa blogger who has been voting Republican. He sounds rather fed up right now.

Tampa blogger fed up with town hall crashers.

Obama says he wants the people that created the mess to shut up while he fixes the mess. It was a mess, and I believe he is fixing it.

I used to vote Republican until I realized that I was getting the shitty end of the stick. I have worked all my life to make other people rich.

Now it is my turn. Don't get me wrong, I work 70 hours a week, I am no lazy bum. I should have health insurance, but I can't afford it. I would pay a group rate which this President will make available to me. The people that are crashing the Health reform meetings are insane. I bet most of them don't even have health insurance. They just listen to the fat man and the crier.


Good for him. Thanks to Ybor City Stogie for posting about this blogger. He sounds like an interesting fellow.

It warms my heart to hear intelligent Republicans being brave enough to speak out about the fools right now.

Here is his About page

I'm a philosophy major who is searching to see if Bertrand Russel was right about man being a rational animal. Not yet found one.

..."I got interested in photography during the "neolithic" era of film during the late '70's and '80's. Like many people I fell away because of frustration and high film and development cost. It was three years ago when I bought my first digital camera that the magic was back and I was in the game again.

I am currently working in the cab business and striving to become a pro again in photography.

...I'm a believer in positive thinking. People can turn their lives around and Make Real Magic Happen for themselves and others if only they believe. The key is being inspired by something. Being inspired by something other than a pay check.


These ravers and ranters may have pushed their limits with their outrageous town hall behaviors.

Good for Tim Fasano for speaking out.

1. I live in Tampa
And please keep in mind that while we do have idiots, some of us are working behind enemy lines to drain the swamp down here.

Also, do not forget that Tampa gave Glenn Beck his national push, so when Beck speaks, thjere are many old time listeners who still think he is an angel.

2. I remember when Beck and Jeb held the "pro-war" rallies.
It was awful. People were out there shouting for they knew not what. I was on one mailing list for Florida genealogy and it finally broke up because of the Beck folks who took it over. Kind of sad, it was a good list.

Oh, yes, I know the idiots are few in number...but they sure are loud. :)

3. I like it. It works well for Rush and Beck. Beck has been tweeting crazy stuff
tonight. He is as unhinged on Twitter as on TV. LOL
