Health Care: Obama’s Mercenaries Vs. Freedom Fighters

How about a little something for the effort? The Democratic party and their grassroots organizers are paying workers to hold signs and show up. Who is the mob again? Here’s some Craig’s List examples in Sacramento:

Really, they’re everywhere. Mercenary grassroots efforts.

Meanwhile, the people who make up the Right grassroots efforts aren’t paid. These new activists adhere to a point of view they came to themselves and are organic, self-organizing groups. I’ve said it before, the Left is jealous. This is like a new civil rights movement (no one had to be paid back then, either). Common citizens are concerned about the direction of the country–the debt, the deficit, the future. Health care is just one more way the government is getting bigger and scarier.

There’s astroturfing going on, but it’s not on the right.
