In reply to the discussion: Can Internet Trolls Take Down Obamacare? (Tea Party Launches Attack On Healthcare.gov Live Chat) [View all]dotymed

A sixtyish, regular patron, sitting at the bar educating the others about Obamacare, the govt. shutdown and the obstructionist House that is trying to ruin our economy and deprive needy Americans of health care.
She did a great job. She is a motherish figure to many at this bar. She called them out by name, Boehner, Cruz, McConnell, etc..
