(Via Gateway Pundit) This got filmed yesterday, and shows an organizer for HCAN giving quick instructions on how to keep Rep. Jan Schakowsky’s constituents from being heard when they raise concerns on the health care rationing bill:The most interesting question is the one about the effort being put into a district the Dems won by 20 points. What do they know that scares them so badly?Popout
As Glenn Reynolds notes, there’s a certain amount of projection going on, here.
Moe Lane
PS: Exit question: why are the Democrats so worried about a D+20 district? Maybe we should look into that.
PPS: Seriously. Bring a camera everywhere.
As Gateway Pundit noted, this congresswoman is the same one who boasted that Obamacare would put an end to the private health care insurance industry.

Sanity at a healthcare townhall
Everything was par for the course: Olson recited the tale of “Britney,” who was turned down by several doctors because her unborn son had a heart defect. Sad! And also: socialism! Except instead of denouncing individual doctors and private insurance companies as organs of communistic socialism—liberal socialism—some guy pointed out that in fact this was not at all a case of the government ordering Britney to send her unborn son to a poorly run hospice kibbutz to die. Because it was the doctors who turned her down, no? Olson is literally speechless until some other guy yells out “But… Death Panel!!” and everything gets back on track.

More intelligent conservative commentary on healthcare:
REP. WEINER: No. No. The United States of America, 40 percent of all tax dollars go through a public plan. Ask your parent or grandparent, ask your neighbor whether they're satisfied with Medicare. Now, there's a funding problem, but the quality of care is terrific. You get complete choice and go anywhere you want. Don't look at --
MS. BARTIROMO: How come you don't use it? You don't have it. How come you don't have it?
REP. WEINER: Because I'm not 65. I would love it.
