The White House and their spokesman Robert Gibbs have suggested that the people who are showing up to town halls and rallies all over the nation to protest health care reform and other issues are somehow being orchestrated and thus cannot be taken seriously.

The White House and Robert Gibbs are totally discrediting themselves by suggesting we health care and cap and trade protesters are not angry, or that we are astro-turfed, or organized by insurance agencies or lobbyists or the GOP. These accusations could not be further from the truth.
The State of NH GOP is not doing one thing to help organize these protests, not even so much as sending an email to their members. This is a source of frustration for some, but nevertheless, the lack of participation, let alone organization or direction from the GOP at all levels, is a fact.
However, there is a massive amount of independent participation by ordinary voters who demonstrate tangible public outrage which is mounting, a fact which the White House and our Congress would be wise to face sooner, than later.
