Below is what longnshort posted and which you so readily accepted. And yet there is not one link substantiating the stuff that is claimed in the text. Not one although there are three links in the post none of which reference the text. What's amazing to me is how quickly you accepted that info without even checking. Really amazing.
"Unfiltered town hall crowds? Sounds like baloney to me. Some things I found in various comments:
You know you cannot just “enter” an Obama town hall meeting. They give out tickets in advance. Who gets the tickets? People who stand in line and wait. Who tells people when and where Obama will appear next? Certainly not the Secret Service who has to protect this man. Not the MSM, who are too busy telling us how great he is without asking any critical questions.
Sooooo… how does a 61 year-old homeless woman who’s living in a pickup truck with her son JUST HAPPEN to get a ticket so she can VERY PUBLICALLY ask Prez. Obama for a HOUSE? Anyone? Who pushes her up on stage? She’s right at the front of the crowd. Did she just happen to get a seat there?
Now, within moments of this happening, it’s trumpeted all over the news. AND, surprise, surprise, the wife of State Representative Nick Thompson, Chene Thompson JUST HAPPENS to have a spare house worth $150,000 lying around, so she GIVES it to this unemployed, homeless, living-in-a-truck woman. They’ve been homeless for “more than a year”, which coincidentally, predates the current housing and banking crisis by quite a while. How did they learn about the “Obama Town Hall and Tent Revival”? Were homeless people simply rounded up? Did someone pre-canvas the area in search of “great, tear-jerking stories”? Of all the people in the audience, SHE’S one of the ones Obama chooses to ask a question?

Well I think it is safe to say that we know where most of those 1500 tickets that people stood in line for all night went. For those of you unaware, people stood in line all night and were only issued two tickets. A lady who was number 43 in line was not half way to the ticket window then the tickets were gone...do the math. I was absolutely shocked by the number of state reps in attendance, many of which have nothing to with that locality.
