    Hold a town hall meeting on health care or resign your seat!

    Congresswoman Giffords is target of local protest

    SIERRA VISTA — Democratic U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords faces an ultimatum from some local constituents when it comes to national health care.

    The terms given to the Arizona 8th Congressional District U.S. representative:

    • Hold a Sierra Vista town hall meeting on health care.
    • If she does not, then she is asked to resign her seat.
    • If she doesn’t resign, then those who are upset with her will look for ways to recall her from office.

    That was the prominent view Saturday when more than 150 people gathered outside her local office, which was closed due to the weekend. It was the second recent protest against Giffords by the local chapter of the Tea Party, primarily concerning health care.

    Joanne Daley, who helped organize both events, said if Giffords holds a health care town hall meeting during the August congressional recess, “we pledge not to be disruptive.â€

    I do see the importance of having a rigorous debate on this issue. If we have that, the truth will be obvious. Just screaming and shouting at these democrat politicians to shut them down does not in the end accomplish much. In fact, it adds to the image of conservatives as "crazy" unreasonable types. I wrote to CNN and FOX both that they need to sponsor a full-fledged debate giving all the details and answering ALL the questions. No "talking points" without any answers to the concerns out there. The screaming out of control image is something that can be used against us by Keith Obermann and other creeps like him.

    Anyone that doesn't do Town Halls, including MY 3 idiots, Snowe, Collins and Pingree, NEED to be all voted out.
    They are NOT LISTENING to their PEOPLE!!!!

    I called and told them they need to sit in the audience and SHUT-UP!!
    No on wants to hear the lies!

    Listen to the people one at a time as they tell their thoughts in an orderly way, at a microphone.
    Then listen to the crowd.
    WE KNOW YOU ALL WILL JUST SHOVE IT THROUGH!!!

    WITHOUT EVEN READING THE DAMN THING???


    That's why people are mad....

    Now you're going to start up with freaking Amnesty too???

    If Israel puts down their guns there will be no more Israel.
