John McCain: 'Revolution' on health care By ANDY BARR \| 8/27/09 politico.com Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Wednesday night that the raucous town hall crowds opposing the Democratic push for a health care overhaul are proof that the beginnings of a “revolution” are bubbling up. McCain told Fox News’s Sean Hannity during an interview that he has “never” seen anything like the “peaceful revolution taking place” in opposition to President Barack Obama’s push for health care reform. “There is a grass-roots uprising the likes of which I have never seen,” he said. “There’s anger; there’s concern about the future. There’s concern about the generational theft that we’ve committed by running up unconscionable and unsustainable deficits.” As an example, McCain pointed to a woman who told him during a recent town hall that the health care debate has left her “worried about my freedom.” “What she was talking about was her right to choose what kind of health care she wants, what physician she wants to see, when she can see a doctor and when she can’t,” the former GOP presidential nominee said. “She epitomized, in many respects, the deep and abiding concern out here and a revolt against a government-run health system.” McCain knocked Democrats for being “in denial that Americans are upset and concerned” and for not understanding “the depth of the passion that’s out there.” “They dismissed the tea parties, they dismissed your freedom rallies, they dismissed the real, vocal opposition to this health care plan,” the Arizona senator said. “But I don’t think they’re going to be able to dismiss it for too much longer.”
