Hampstead NH TEA Party Protest

  • 15 years ago
This video features protesters outside Hampstead, NH's Town Hall. U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-NH, was not present at the small Town Hall, but her staff was there. Protesters were largely against Obamacare, Tax & Trade and other egregious bills pending before Congress. The videographer interviews each of the protesters so they can explain why they are opposing the government-run plan. The videographer attempts to interview the political opposition, or those who favor government care, and asks them why they felt it was OK to come up from Massachusetts to a small New Hampshire town to protest in another state, but they only confirmed this was so and refused to answer questions. The second video shows this footage, as well as the inaccurate fallacies that Sen. Shaheen's staff tried to promulgate when faced with questions about the government plan.
