Of course all politicians love a friendly audience and frequently make speeches to them. I have never complained about that and I never mentioned Obama's townhall where it was clearly stacked in his favor. That is his perogative.

What bothers me about the way they did it in the other cases is they intentionally allowed SEIU members in the side door before opening it to the public. That to me violates the spirit of a townhall and if they were so animated on the left or in the union to support Obamacare then they would have come early to be first in line instead of holding back a thousand people until you half fill the townhall with plants. Talk about astroturfing.

I would hope you would agree that the President of the United States ought to be above mass email campaigns to union thugs and allowing the White House to incite violence, which is what they did very effectively. That is more in line with Hugo Chavez than the U.S.
