Town halls have just not been the same since the fiery Republican talking-points inspired health care rage summer of 2009. Instead of mostly calm civic discourse, they now are predominately characterized by wild screams, hoots, and hollers regardless of the elected officials’ political orientation.

Lately, the tides been turning against Republican Congressmembers who, according to their constituents, have some explaining to do about their recent unyielding stance on the debt-ceiling and their brazen threat to cut Medicare and Social Security. This video of a town hall put on by Republican Congressman Fred Upton of Michigan beautifully captures the constituent backlash to the recent debt-ceiling  mayhem that swept over congress only a few weeks ago.
