Harkin Health Care Event Erupts in Shouting Match



Note that Harkin appears to have organized counter demonstrators who are there to tell people opposed to ObamaCare to shut up.

A health care event sponsored U.S. Sen. Tom Harkin erupted into a shouting match Saturday afternoon, when opponents of health-care reform yelled pointed questions and criticisms to the Democratic senator.

It echoed other health care events sponsored by members of Congress around the country in recent days that have been disrupted by protestors, although no one was arrested at Saturday’s event.

Uniformed police officers were present as roughly 200 people turned out to see Harkin at an inner-city health care center to voice their opinions or ask questions about health care.

“This is not health reform, this is control, control over our lives,” one unidentified man shouted from the audience.
