Republicans can no longer confiscate cameras at Town Halls

Says the court. http://www.politicususa.com/en/1st-amendment-town-halls

Now if the court would just step in and realize free speed 'zones' are illegal too.

Excellent!

I say if Democrats can do it, then Republicans should be able also!

Damn liberal judges.

Which is a good ruling and very bad judgement by the Representative. I doubt he will be re-elected after this bone headed move.

But, apparently, you can't take photos in the Senate or House.
And some Republicans have decided not to have public townhalls at all but ticketed events only (so you have to pay him to voice your concerns to him!! - even though you already pay him). And they'll call the police to keep away citizens they don't want to talk with. That's called "representing your constituents.

Seems that Rep Ryan isn't the only "R" holding only "pay per view" townhalls. Doubtless Dammy or Fade will turn up some lists of Dems who are doing this too - and presumably when they do it will prove that the Reps. are right to do this.

But going even further - ask a tough question of Rep Daniel Webster (R-FL) or Tim Griffin (R-AR) and you get to go on a "watch list". Now, does that sound like the land of the free, or what?

That's rather disturbing.

Enemies lists are very common but the truly politically capable can keep them in their heads.

All you're supposed to do, is listen to Obama, to know the latest Obama "two minutes of hate" enemy.
So many enemies ...

S&P, Tea Party, Insurance companies, oil companies, coal companies, rich people, corporate jet owners, corporate jet manufactures, yacht owners, credit card companies, student loan companies, McDonald's, FOX News, Rush Limbaugh, Koch brothers, the Supreme Court, BiBi Netanyahu, Arizona, Texas, Wal-Mart, prescription drug manufactures, George W. Bush, Republicans, Sarah Palin, Rick Perry, ...

BiBi Netanyahu,

At least he agrees with the Israelis on that one.

Obama already had Emmanuel Goldstein shot in his bedroom somewhere in Pakistan. But not to worry - there are others who have taken up his mantle.

(By the way, The Party has two heads.)

Gasp! It looks like Obama plagiarized McDeath's list, or is it the other way around?

And yet the illusion appears to be utterly compelling.
