Coburn has it right

From Politico:

People in general have missed the boat on the whole town hall rage phenomenon. Coburn hits on it here. Go back and look at any of the videos, especially the first ones that came out. The audience reaction doesn't really kick in until the speaker, a Congress-thing, begins to recite from what sounds like a list of talking points or boiler-plate platitudes, like so:


Listen as Steny Hoyer trys to deliver just such talking points. The folks are not having it. Who can blame them? Whether you are liberal or conservative, Democrat or Republican, aren't we entitled to a more thoughtful, informed response from our elected representatives than this?
