They Got Your Back, Congressman Doggett



I'm so proud of Bis Sis.
Today she and her partner My Sharona braved the heat and went to Rep. Lloyd Doggett's (D-TX) second attempt at a Town Hall meeting on health care in Austin.
Gotta love those Austin liberals, they turned out in hoards with signs and loud voices to back down any rightwing big insurance dipshits and shills who showed up to disrupt things again.
The rightwing bullies may have showed up with fire in their bellies, but they left with their tails between their legs and their screechy voices silenced.
Big Sis took a Flip video camera and shot a lot of the event, but I was unable to figure out how to upload the clips here.
But I watched them, and let me tell you, the disruptors from the Party of No didn't dare cause a ruckus or the crowd of Doggett supporters and Austin liberals would have literally mowed them down.
Big Sis, who's usually not very confrontational, approached one idiot good old boy and asked him what congressional district he was from.
Caught flatfooted, he mumbled, "Well, I don't know but I have a right to be here and blah blah--" Sis cut him off and yelled in a loud voice, "You need to get the hell out of here, you lousy carpetbagger!"
The creep beat feet out of there, lest he get his ass kicked.
Then, never one to avoid publicity, suddenly (TX-R) Sen. John Cornyn's big gas guzzling SUV pulled up and he emerged from it, looking for the teabagging protesters to rush over and give him some love.
Ooops, he mistook the crowd of rowdy liberals as his base, and when they spotted him and booed at an earsplitting volume as they started advancing toward him, he jumped back into his gas hog and had his driver squeal the tires getting out of there.
Fucking cowardly prick.
All in all, the disruptors were totally disrupted.
They all stayed silent and in the back of the crowd before they tippy-toed their cowardly asses out of there.
No more town hall meetings will be disrupted in Austin after the chickenshit, paid shills on the right got a load of what they were facing.
Bullies are always cowards at their core.
Getting backed down and shut down by a bunch of old hippies, gay people and liberal soccer moms with little hand-lettered posters was classic Austin.

This is how these teabagging trouble-makers need to be treated. Now.

Well done!

If there's hope for Texas, there's hope for us all.

It turns out fat-headed Cornyn was at the rally but behind closed doors pretending to give a damn about the indigent group gathered inside. Cornyn came running out to escape in his car and didn't say one word to the large group of his assembled constituents. I guess he couldn't stomach another round of booing after the tea baggers ambushed him.

Cornyn and Kay Bailey are keeping their big mouths shut publicly and letting Doggett meet large groups of constituents and suffer the criticism of paid anti-healthcare goons.

But Cornyn has taken time to meet privately with medical providers to try to scare the beejeezus out them with lies about the health care reform plan (see Daily Kos, great article).

How therapeutic Big Sis's actions are. Way to go!

Here in VT we have Dr. Dinosaur for our state's children, thanks to Howard Dean and a great legislature. I can only hope that future efforts will include adults.

Goddam insurance industry. They tried to suppress "Bulworth", too.
