These are the tactics of the "brownshirts", possibly slightly more refined.

FYI - I decided to follow the so-called 'townhalls gone wild' story thread through internet news searches. Originally I was looking to see if there's a connection between Rick Scott of CPR, et al, and town hall disrupters; but I didn't find any.

What I did find was a pdf file sent out to town hall disrupters at http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/townhallactionmemo.pdf which under the "Organize for Success" heading advises, "...go to www.projectvotesmart.org and obtain the Rep's voting record.", to use for ammunition.

Curious, I went the that web site, and it appears now to be defunct, domain up for sale, and containing only links to retail advertising.

Perhaps an opposing interest with some backing could take advantage of this, since town hall tea partiers are directed there, and buy the site to post things more truthful than the mis-information that's being dished out now.
