Obama: "I Want You To Argue With Them And Get In Their Face!"

As the White House and the DNC complain about the "manufactured mobs" that are vigorously questioning Dem House members at their town hall meetings, a number of sites are reminding readers of this story:

The feistier, more sarcastic tone came as worried Democrats urged Obama to get tougher and show more passion. Obama has tried to assure donors and voters that he’s been schooled by Chicago politics…

In Elko, Obama tried to anticipate his critics and called on the crowd of about 1,500 to sharpen their elbows, too.

“I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face,” he said.

“And if they tell you that, ‘Well, we’re not sure where he stands on guns.’ I want you to say, ‘He believes in the Second Amendment.’ If they tell you, ‘Well, he’s going to raise your taxes,’ you say, ‘No, he’s not, he’s going lower them.’ You are my ambassadors. You guys are the ones who can make the case.”

Look, for a number of years Obama made his living as a "community organizer" whose job was to stir people up and get them to challenge authority in order to get what they wanted.

That's what the people are doing today when they challenge Democrats. Free speech is such a pain when it's used against you.
