The narrative currently being written by the new left posits that opposition to their attempts to reform health care is fueled by political impotence, crackpot extremism and racism. Alas, elected officials demonstrating contempt for the people they represent has sadly become the rule rather than the exception. Calling the American people Nazis and fools may make a more compelling story than the truth, but it will not alter the fact that Americans simply do not want the expensive, top-heavy government health care boondoggle currently being stuffed down their throats.
(NNPA)—It is time for testing on several fronts as the health care debate becomes the platform for a general uprising over President Barack Obama’s governing program. His very life is being tested, as people, like William Kostric, show up to a New Hampshire Town hall meeting with a gun strapped to his leg. In an interview with Kostric, he claimed his right under New Hampshire law, to carry a weapon openly, but he also had a sign with him carrying the words saying that “it is time to water the tree of liberty.”
Representative David Scott, a Black congressman from Georgia, is getting pretty popular on video. The lawmaker, speaking at a recent town hall meeting on a road project in his district, has been widely described as ranting against someone who asked questions about proposed health care reforms working their way through Congress.Today Blacks may not be expected to tip their hats or cross the street, but the expectation that Blacks will not challenge White authority, White opinions or White sensibilities remains.
