Rep. Russ Carnahan (D-MO) meets a tough crowd.
From TheBlackSphere.net (Kevin Jackson)
I must say that Carnahan was as nervous as taxpayer in a room full of liberals! The standing room only crowd obviously rattled him. Carnahan made little eye contact as he likely expected an echo chamber, recognizing instead that he was in Dante’s Inferno.
The crowd was split about 60-40 against him is my read, and that ratio is larger if you removed all the people who were helping at the event who last names begin with “Carnahan!” Many attendees were people with severe disabilities, and they were there for answers, not platitudes.
[...]
Carnahan eventually introduced his “posse.” This group was right out of the Democrat playbook, titled “Using Victims to Sell Anything.” He had people who represented the disabled, children, the elderly, and of course the BLACKS—or as Russ put it, the “disenfranchised.” By the way, his panel of leaders…were ALL white!!
It was finally time for Q&A. Members of Russ’ entourage, practically all family had earlier taken [screened] “question cards.” They had microphones set up to take audience [shills] questions as well.
The first question from a shill and was a setup question—a softball, lobbed so Russ could knock it out of the park. Russ reiterated that this new proposed legislation would be revolutionary, and needed to thwart the crisis that is coming in healthcare. Knowing that I would not be able to get my question card read, I shouted “If the plan is so good, then why isn’t Congress included?”
The room again erupted in laughter, and people restated the question. However, Russ “dk’d” me: ‘Didn’t know’ me. Nevertheless the mood of the room became a bit more hostile, as it should when Congress essentially says, “Here is YOUR plan, but we will keep ours.”
I followed up my comment with more truth about the Democrats, by saying, “Russ Carnahan doesn’t listen to black people!” Carnahan said nothing.
