Tempers Flare, Obscenities Hurled at Anti-Obamacare Rally

|

Contrary to the views of the political and media elites—see anchorman Will McAvoy’s telling diatribe on The Newsroom—I’ve always thought tea partiers were pretty much common-sense folks tired of seeing the national debt run up. So it’s disappointing when their ilk live up to the angry-and-out-of-control stereotype. Apparently that’s what happened at last night’s “Defund Obamacare” rally at the Hilton Anatole. According to this report by Brad Pearson over at D Healthcare Daily, things got ugly there pretty fast.
