We're In The Best of Hands

Hank Johnson is a representative from Georgia. He beat Cynthia "The Cutest Communist in Congress" McKinney for the honor of representing the people of the fourth congressional district. He is a perfect representative for this group. As evidenced by Mr Johnson having a "D" behind his name. This is something the people in this district are very comfortable with. It not only represents the highest grade they achieved in school, but it is also as far as they got in the alphabet, which explains how they continue to send these stellar statesmen to Washington.

Mr Johnson loves to take on social problems. The problem in this case is worrying about Guam tipping over if we move too many Marines over there.

No seriously. I wrote this post in a simple manner so hopefully any of his followers that stumble across this will be able to comprehend understand read this.



On the other hand, having him in Washington is better then having him walking the streets around here.

Please don't ever ask him if he has read the bill, any bill.

UPDATE: Looks like the opinion of Rep Johnson is bipartisan.

A Tale Of Two Healthcare Forums

Today in Atlanta we had the unique experience of two different gatherings revolving around the current debate on the proposed healthcare legislation. One was a townhall/forum hosted by that irascible scamp Rep. David Scott (D-GA) in Jonesboro at a high school and the other was a rally held in downtown Atlanta at Centennial Olympic Park.

The story can best be told in pictures. By now everyone is aware of the allegations made by the left of those who oppose the legislation are somehow nothing more then stooges and pawns of the some greater conspiracy and what they call "astroturf" protestors, meaning they aren't real but rather on the payroll of somebody.

Well, let's see which side dresses alike and shows up with pre printed slickly produced signs and which group just sort of shows up.













This one puts it in perfect perpective.

About 3000 folks showed up downtown for the rally against Obamacare and Mr. Scott's forum played to a full house also.

Two metro Atlanta representatives, Hank Johnson and David Scott, solidly support the Obama, Pelosi, Reid plan and as proof that they are not really representing their constituents in a poll recently conducted by one of our local TV stations, 11 Alive, the results show 56% oppose and only 34% are in favor of the current legislation, but neither of these gentlemen give two flips about their constituents, only about staying in the good graces of Madame Pelosi. David Scott even has the nerve to call himself a Blue Dog. They ought to kick him out if he is an example of a Blue Dog Democrat, since he hasn't got a fiscally conservative bone in his body.

African American Congressman Faces Angry Southern KKK Crowd at Healthcare Townhall

That is the headline the liberal media would love to run with this morning, and were probably anticipating as Georgia congressman Hank Johnson (GA-13) held his healthcare townhall last night in a suburb of Atlanta. Instead over 2,000 people attended and engaged the congressmaen and other members of the panel that were assembled in polite and probing questions regarding the various healthcare bills floating around the halls of the capitol building.

Civil, well-mannered, asking smart questions – that may not sound like one of these town hall meetings on health care reform.
But the nearly 2,000 people who gathered Monday night at George Perimeter College in Clarkston offered a lesson to the rest of the nation on how civil discourse doesn’t have to spiral into civil disobedience.

Our local rag the Atlanta Journal Constitution (AJC), even had to concede that the meeting went well, but they weren't ready to report that most people in attendance expressed displeasure at the proposed government takeover of healthcare in this country. In fact in reading the article you get a sense that most in attendance were in favor. This is a far different perpective then what was shown on the local news channels last night in which at least one reporter on the scene estimated that those who oppose the plan outnumbered those in favor by a margin of 5 or 6 to 1.
So while Yankee boy John Dingell from MI likes to compare those who oppose the government takeover to members of the KKK, we southerners will continue to display our usual southern hospitality and manners. Something those on the left could take some lessons from.
