President's Memphis town-hall meeting: only those in agreement could stay

Other news services covered the story of President Bush's meeting in the Cannon Arts Center on March, 11,2005. People who were not in agreement with the President's plan for Social Security were "...quickly silenced or escorted out by security." The Washington Post (March 11) stated that only "carefully screened panelists" were admitted to this meeting which was to be for the citizens to inquire and learn about Social Security.

If people want 'everything on the table' why are those who disagree or want to present and discuss other information being shown the exit when it comes to discussing the matter?
