WASHINGTON (CNN) — National Republicans turned the tables on their political counterparts Wednesday by redirecting angry telephone calls coming into their switchboard to the Democratic National Committee.
The DNC released a Web video early in the morning accusing the GOP of inciting mob activity at town hall meetings.
At the end of the video, the DNC instructs people to call the Republican National Committee to express outrage. Callers who dial the RNC's main number to voice their concern about the DNC's charges are told to press 1, which sends them to the DNC's main switchboard.
DNC spokesman Brad Woodhouse described the RNC's redirection as a "neat trick," but said it just further proves the Democrats' point about the GOP.
"The RNC is inciting angry mobs to shout out legitimate discussion at public events across the country and now they want to ignore people who deplore their tactics," Woodhouse said. "Republicans don't want to have a discussion about the future of health care reform – they want to shout out – and now completely ignore – anyone who disagrees with them." - CNN
OK, I may not be the brightest light, but can someone please explain to me the logic in this from the Democrats?
They are complaining about people showing up at their town halls shouting and disrupting them. They say it is the Republicans sending the angry mobs in.
Yet there answer, which they feel is OK, is to create their own angry mob and shout down the GOP.
Doesn't this pretty easily explain why nothing ever really gets done in Washington. They are like a bunch of fricking kids.
