Texans Protest ‘Obamacare’ in Austin

August 3rd, 2009 · No Comments

Thanks to the Drudge Report, Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-Texas) is receiving some unwelcome publicity today.  Drudge posted a link to a video (below) of an “Obamacare” protest that took place Saturday in Austin.

“DumpDoggett”, the poster of the video, had this to say in the description:

“Rep Doggett met with constituents outside a grocery store in south Austin regarding the health care bill. Apparently the event was mostly advertised in liberal leaning local publications. He did not bring a megaphone, so hearing what he had to say was difficult. When he started making the move to leave, the crowd erupted chanting “Just say no!” His worker got the car ready to shuttle him away but the crowd surrounded it and it took a while for him to get out of the parking lot. The whole time, the “Just say no!” chant continued. It probably won’t matter – from his facial expression, body language, and what was heard to come out of his mouth, he’s for the the health care bill in its present form and has no openness to change on that.”

If you want to send Representative Doggett a message, you can find his contact information by visiting his official web site.
