FreedomWorks Storms Max Baucus's office...says....something?

by: Matt Singer

Check this out -- FreedomWorks, an astroturf shop set up by Dick Armey to capture corporate dollars and use them to "organize" conservatives for "libertarian" causes (hence their main target in the health debate seems to be that it may be funded in part through a soda and liquor tax)...but I digress. FreedomWorks brags about storming Max Baucus's Helena office earlier this week.

Watch their whole video. They cut off their own activist mid-sentence because he doesn't appear to be making a whole lot of sense.

This FreedomWorks activism is working closely, near as I can tell, with Patients United, the Jake Eaton group. As you can tell even more, these folks are vastly outnumbered by the number of Montanans who want to see healthcare reform.

Final irony question: how many of the folks in this video are refusing Medicare coverage? I'm guessing not many.

that is just sad.... (0.00 / 0)
reminds me of the arco paid bastards who used a bunch of poor ignorant old-timers out in bonner to fight to keep milltown dam...(so arco would not have to cough up the cleanup) before old what's her name - you know the church lady governor signed the dam's death warrant....

the sad tattered remnants of the republican party are not above groveling for corporate health insurers money and talking a bunch of confused old people into making fools of themselves as long as old jake gets that lobbyist paycheck....very sad.  

United we stand, divided we fall.

power to the polite people!
