8. I just got back from the event
It was hot, hot, hot. We were outside. We were roasting. :evilfrown:

Anyway we had way more people on our side of health care reform than the crazies. When they yelled "Just say no" We yelled "Health Care Now!" and I think it sounded like the whole crowd was yelling "Health Care Now!".

Cornyn went into the clinic and sped right out. He didn't take any questions or address the crowd at all. He was there for the photo opportunity inside the clinic.

Lloyd did not get shouted down or drowned out by the crazies. He even tipped his hat to Ron Paul and said when it comes to civil liberties he and Ron Paul actually agree a lot. He took questions and comments from both sides. The crazies don't listen to even their own people. They tried to boo everyone.

Lets see how the local news covers it. They love controversy of course.
