Operation Rescue founder Randall Terry was kicked out of Representative Jim Moran and Howard Dean. Moran gave Terry the chance to have a civil discussion. Terry declined.
Citizen journalists at the event reported that Congressman Moran incited the crowd further when he suggested there were some people in attendance who don't live in his district and had come only to disrupt the meeting. As Salon reports, Moran first singled out the instigator, demanding that Randall leave the town hall, "but then reconsidered, offering him the chance to ask the first question as long as he ended his protest and kept the question short enough that other people would still have their chance."
Terry declined. Instead he was escorted from the building as he continued to accuse Dean of murdering babies.
Terry and followers chanted "You Are A Baby Killer" and "We Won't Pay For Murder." House Republicans and Democrats have gone to pains to omit abortion from HR 3200. In the video, Terry tells a reporter the health care reform bill will fund abortion. Not true. From a pro-choice policy standpoint: I wish abortion was in HR 3200.
Listen to the crowd chant "Kick Them Out" to Terry's party. Terry manages to alienate liberals and conservatives. TErry will never understand being shrill will not help him win.
