According to the liberal Los Angeles Times:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, insisting at the start of a long and politically heated summer congressional recess that healthcare reform can be achieved this fall, today are calling the disruption of "town-hall'' meetings by vocal protesters "simply un-American.''
But, when anti-Bush, anti-war protesters were demonstrating at the private burials of soldiers killed in action, not a peep was heard from them – it was free speech.
