[QUOTE="NJTStang11, post: 6246305, member: 558248"] Agreed about the townhall protestors being completely misinformed. I worked for a Congressman for the past year before beginning law school. The previous two town hall meetings seemed to become health care meetings as it was the only issue discussed by the constituents. Talk about being misinformed. People were making claims that were never true, arguing against issues that had not been raised, comparing it to other government programs that are like apples and oranges. Then, when asked how the elderly felt about Medicare, over 90% of the room loved their coverage, yet some of these people were the ones arguing government cant do anything right. The funniest scene occured at the last one where a group of about 20 protestors gathered outside our town hall meeting to picket. This group of protestors were so misinformed that they were protesting for the same thing the Congressman had already stated that he supported. They didn't even take the time to research the Congressman's views on the subject. [/QUOTE]
