I think I love the Rep from Georgia who told a protester to set up a mtg
about health care, rather than take over another meeting. I think his name is David Scott. Whoever he is, some district in GA has a great Representative!

3. He was at some public event, with an agenda other than health care,
when someone stood and tried to raise the health care issue. The Rep scolded the guy, saying he hadn't had one phone call from anyone asking to meet with him about health care. He said if people wanted to set up such a meeting, he'd be happy to do it. But that that wasn't the venue, and no one tried to arrange for an event re: health care.

He was pissed. God bless him!

8. Here is the video.
http://www.11alive.com/video/default.aspx?aid=110764

The shouters are all pissed that he accused some doctor of being a bused-in plant when he was actually from the congressman's district.

The film shows that he was talking to the group rather than to the doctor who came to a meeting on a road project and asked a loaded question on health reform and then just kept talking even after the microphone was taken from him.
