This was sent to me by a reader; it's from someone who attended the Assemblywoman Lois Capps' town hall in Oxnard on Friday night:

I attended the Lois Capps town hall meeting in Oxnard Friday night. It was fully controlled and an exercise in futility. She either was unable or unwilling to answer sincere questions.

When asked where in the Constitution the government had the right to take over health care, she mumbled something about health and the pursuit of happiness.

When asked how much money the health care companies gave to her campaign, she said she didn't know.

When asked what had led her to believe that government could run health care when social security, medicare, medicaid, Amtrak, the post office and the government itself were bankrupt, she went off on a meaningless pie in the sky rant that evaded the question.

She said the health care bill was deficit neutral, when the Congressional Budget Office stated the cost would be one trillion dollars over ten years.

She said it would be a non-profit type organization that would compete with private insurers to bring the cost down. But a non-profit with deep pockets i.e. the ability to print money will drive private insurers out of business and the government single payer system will result.

She further stated she would vote for Obama's plan regardless of what her constituents thought. She proved herself to be an empty suit who was going to follow her own agenda regardless.

Anyone in the audience who did not go along was referred to as another "Jerry Springer"

Good luck America.
