Rick Larsen to Pack Town Hall!

Larsen changes location at last minute!
Democrats are organizing to try and put a smiley face on Obama Care, and are taking directions from the White House. At the Last Minute: Rick Larsen moves Town Hall, organizes unions and others in the Snohomish County Democratic Party to pack the stadium in order to drown out any dissent.
Working into the late hours last night, union and Acorn members produced hundreds of ‘hand made’ signs and got their teams organized at the Labor Temple in Downtown Everett for Wednesday night’s town hall. They have organized teams of union members to stand guard at the event. Anyone who looks like a ‘GOP Thug’ or disrupter will be ‘dealt with’ my sources tell me.
I believe that Rick Larsen is making a big mistake here by trying to stop folks from voicing their concerns over the nightmare Obama health care packages in Congress (there are three of them). Below is a compilation of what the Democrats have been saying on their websites and in their confidential e-mails which I have obtained:
What's new with your SCDCC
Submitted by admin on Tues, 08/11/2009 - 12:28am.
"Healthcare for All" Rally
Wednesday, August 12 at 3 pm
Now at Everett Memorial Stadium, Home of the Aqua Sox!
Congressman Rick Larsen's Health Care Town Hall Wednesday 8/12 was originally scheduled to be held at Everett Station, starting at 5 p.m. The SCDCC rally was to start at 3 p.m. just outside the town hall location.
***As of Tuesday evening, 8/11, Congressman Larsen's office changed the location to allow for more…”Democrats”.. to attend.
Join us Wednesday at Aqua Sox Stadium to stand for the right to have a conversation about the issues, health care and coverage for all in this case, without it needing to become a political shouting match.
Everett Memorial Stadium (Home of the Aqua Sox) 3900 Broadway, Everett
Wednesday, August 12th
3:00 - 5:00 Healthcare rally outside
5:00 - 6:00 Town hall inside the stadium - come ask questions of your 1stCD Congressman*
*SIc (Apparently the Dem's don't know that Larsen is in the 2nd District!)
Bring signs or pick one up at the rally. (From the White House: the Obama Link, you can print at home then bring on Wednesday!)
Work party to make homemade signs and rally posters is being held at the labor temple Tuesday p.m.
This is the time to make a statement and take a stand!
Here are homemade sign instructions from Obama:
Health Care Can’t Wait, Reform the Insurance System Now, Healthcare Reform Needs to Happen, Discrimination Must Stop, The Status Quo is Unacceptable, We Need Healthcare Reform.
The Main Talking Points (from the White House): “We want a real discussion, No shouting matches, Healthcare too important to be drowned out by unruly mobs, The Insurance Industry must be reformed and healthcare is vital for everyone!”
(These were for the press and in particular the Everett Herald!)
Note: The Democrats have set up the situation so that the media can present the best side of their issues at this Town Hall: The Everett Herald will be there to lavish praise on Obama Care and Rick Larsen who they support. Every attempt will be made to accuse ANYONE who shows up and objects as a Republican Thug.

This rally, that haw come from the Unions and the Town hall on GOP "Thugs." is really not that big of a deal and when i say that the republican thugs are here to stay!
I am a disruptor of peace... Then again are we not all this, if you really think about it no man nor woman has kept only peace since ALAH himself..
Mr. Clark, I don't understand what you want. Do you like the current pay or die system we have where for-profit insurance companies make the decisions of whom you can see for medical care, and whether or NOT they will pay the health care providers?
I sure don't. I've lived in other countries and have had 100% coverage for health care when living abroad. But in the US I get denied care MOST of the time, and end up paying for it out of pocket, even though I have insurance!
All people deserve to be cared for, not just the wealthy. And we don't need insurance middle men. We just need our tax dollars to go to pay the medical bills.
Today we spend 54% of our tax dollars on the military. Let's just spend 10% of that money on health care, rather than wars and occupations, and we'd have our problem of people dying because they are denied care, solved!
54% of our tax dollars are spent on the military? Where do you get your numbers? Try 21%. You were close, though. Actually, I'll give you a break by surmising that you may have confused it with the percentage of discretionary spending the D.O.D. makes up because your stat is very close to the real figure there. But there's a difference...an important one if you're going to weigh in on a topic like this.
