One question and Republican is done "We're done" VIDEO
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=UNUrkXrd1Dk

CONSTITUENT 1: is a significant tax cut for the wealthy.

CRAWFORD: A 10 percent tax cut?

CONSTITUENT 2: Wouldn’t that be class warfare against the poor people?

CRAWFORD: Well, you’re asking me if I want to continue taxing at a higher rate the people that are creating jobs and no –

CONSTITUENT 2: They’re not creating jobs, though! They haven’t created any more jobs! … They’re taking them all overseas!

CONSTITUENT 3: Are you taking any more questions?

CRAWFORD: No, we’re done.

CONSTITUENT 3: We’re done?

CRAWFORD: We’re done.

CONSTITUENT 4: During the Bush administration, and the tax cuts, how many jobs were created?

CRAWFORD: I don’t have those numbers.

CONSTITUENT 4: Three million. During the Clinton administration, where he raised taxes on the highest bracket to 39.5, how many jobs were created? 22 million. You’re going to tell me that tax cuts create jobs?!

2. Thank you, Paul Ryan. You've done the second-best job in making people aware of which
party is trying to destroy the middle class. First place goes to Gov. Walker & his legislative cabal.

5. First of all..

8. I notice in this video and anothers like it - it is not loud or negative
the people coming to these town hall meetings are measured and reserved which may be the excuse for the lack of coverage on MSM but it nice to see.

Republicans are so used to the Fox News structure that they don't know how to deal with actual informed people

9. Yes, they were respectful and reasonable
Just incredulous that their own rep was spouting nonsense.

That man at the end of the video could have been a DUer.

10. That was awesome. I'm glad to see these are happening in the
Southern states too. I'm praying to God that people are starting to wake up!
