A 65-year-old man rallying in favor of healthcare reform was knocked to the ground by a man who disagreed with the call for a government-run health plan outside of a Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce meeting headlined by Sen. Bill Nelson.Luis Perrero of Coral Gables was standing among about 40 Democratic activists and union workers when a man in a Ford pick-up truck pulled up to the rally at Jungle Island and began arguing with the crowd. The man, who only gave his first name as Raul, said Perrero called him a Spanish curse word. He punched Perrero in the face. Perrero fell to the ground and lay motionless for a few minutes.

When you do not have a logical argument you have to resort to violence to get your point across.

I'm shocked to learn the kind of guy who would assault a stranger would drive a Ford pick-up. Shocked, I tell you.

Both sides of the aisle are probably lapping this up with a spoon...
They want people to be divided so they are easier to conquer.

Enough of them are monsters, or at least corrupt enough not to concern themselves with the greater good.

i think obama pretty clearly reached across the aisle.
unless your so far gone you think that was some kind of conspiracy or something.
no, conservatives want us to be divided so they can pull us down with them. I'm sure that's not how they see it but that's how it is.
like fucking zombies man, they just won't die.

That's not what I'm saying though. I'm saying that Republicans and Democrats are two sides of the same coin. Even though there might be several differences between heads and tails, they both work towards the same end.
That's why when average Joes are fighting each other at town hall meetings because their respective parties are giving them different marching orders, the people who are controlling the government are cackling like mad men.
