“Those idiots come to these town hall meetings more to be seen than heard, and think creating chaos makes them great Americans.

Those people have been convinced by the current culture that we are dying to hear from them, and the louder the better. People who think that all they need to star in their own reality series is a couple of TV crews. But then this is Twitter America now, where no thought is supposed to go unspoken.

We hear that all of this is democracy in action. It’s not. It’s boom-box democracy, people thinking that if they somehow make enough noise on this subject, they can make Obama into a one-term President.

The most violent opposition isn’t directed at his ideas about health care reform. It is directed at him. It is about him. They couldn’t make enough of a majority to beat the Harvard-educated black guy out of the White House, so they will beat him on an issue where they see him as being most vulnerable.

In the process, they’ll come after him on health care the way Kenneth Starr went after Bill Clinton on oral sex in the Oval Office.

With that kind of zealotry, screaming about government programs as if Medicare isn’t one. It is why so many of them, all these wild-eyed red faces in the crowd, look completely certifiable, screaming about how Obama wants to kill Grandma, as if he’s suddenly turned into Jack Kevorkian.

And by the way, if Sarah Palin is involved – Palin as uninformed as ever about these so-called “death panels” – the debate just got dumber, if that’s possible. No kidding. If foreign policy was a brain-buster for Palin, something as truly complex as health care will make her feel as dizzy as if she just rolled down a hill.

So much for being “uninformed”, since the “death panels” were dropped. But moreover, Lupica – noting his flaming liberalism – calls Americans “idiots” and throws out the obligatory sexist slam on Palin, but forgets – as Nancy Pelosi did – how different things were when liberal “idiots” spoke out against Bush policies and the Iraq war.

Like much of the liberal outrage Lupica hasn’t a clue about what is happening here. What is happening is that the majority of Americans – who are conservative and not liberal like himself – are rejecting Obama’s socialist policies. What is happening is America is waking up and rejecting the government takeover of their lives.

The only “violence” that has occurred during these debates came from leftwing goons from the SEIU.

None of this is surprising as Lupica wrote screed after screed about Bush during his years. What is less surprising is that along with Olbermann, ESPN has a habit of producing nutbag sports writers.
