A retired cop stood up at a New Hampshire town hall meeting for Carol Shea Porter (D) of New Hampshire this weekend and asked why out of state SEIU members were present at the meeting. Result? At Shea Porter’s request, he was removed from the meeting by the police.

Now Hampshire has a full report which includes some interesting background on Carol Shea Porter and her changed attitude about protesters at town hall meetings.
“In four short years Carol Shea-Porter has evolved from a rabble-rousing, town hall disrupting anti-war activist who once had to be forcibly removed from a President George Bush event in Portsmouth to a Member of Congress who instructed armed security guards to remove a frustrated voter from her own town hall event in Manchester on Saturday.”
“Four years ago Carol Shea-Porter protested at the State House alongside people dressed as Nazis while accusing the federal government of trying to “brand us like sheep.” On Saturday, she disparagingly referred to people who do not trust the same federal government to run our health care system as “these people.”
For once I have to agree with Barney Frank. What is the matter with us? Why do we keep electing people like Barney Frank to office? He clearly cares more about Obama and Washington, DC than he does about the people he was elected to represent.
The same girl who attended an Easter egg hunt on the White House lawn with her mother this past spring and whose mother is a major Obama donor. The girl whose mother worked for the Obama campaign, has met Michelle Obama and the Obama girls and has met Mr. and Mrs. Biden. The same woman who had a picture of herself posing with President Obama on her Facebook page.
“Facing a barrage of questions Wednesday over the friendliness of the audience at President Obama’s New Hampshire town hall meeting, the White House insisted that all questions were selected at random — including one from an 11-year-old girl whose mother worked as an Obama organizer.”
“Julia Hall of Malden, Mass., grabbed the microphone Tuesday during Obama’s town hall meeting in Portsmouth, N.H., and told the president she saw signs “outside saying mean things about reforming health care” as she walked into the building.”
“Kathleen Manning Hall, Julia Hall’s mother and a coordinator of Massachusetts Women for Obama during the campaign, was seated next to the girl as she asked the question — prompting some to question whether Obama recognized the girl or her mother.”
“As an organizer and donor, Manning Hall had previously met first lady Michelle Obama, Obama daughters, Sasha and Malia, and Vice President Biden, according to a report published Wednesday in the Boston Globe. And her daughter also attended this year’s White House East egg hunt, according to WCVB-TV, the ABC affiliate in Boston.”
The level of bullshit this administration expects people to believe is unreal. They look at you with a straight face and tell you the exact opposite of what you know to be true. It’s incredible.
It’s just like this old bit by the Kids in the Hall.
“A girl from Malden asked President Obama a question at Tuesday’s town hall meeting in New Hampshire about the signs outside “saying mean things” about his health care proposal.”
“The question opened the door for the president to respond to what he called an “underlying fear” among the public “that people somehow won’t get the care they need.”
“Julia’s mother was an early Obama supporter in Massachusetts during the presidential election, so she had previously met First Lady Michelle Obama, the Obama daughters Sasha and Malia, and Vice President Joe Biden.”
UPDATE: In the first 10 seconds of the video below, from today’s meeting, Obama says “Cause I don’t want people thinking I just have a bunch of plants in here.”
