I personally enjoy watching ordinary everyday people hollering at their elected officials. As far as stifling debate, I would say this to the democrats: nut the hell up. Holler back if you have to, explain with a little more clarity and backbone what really resides within the bureaucratic labyrinth of the healthcare bill and what it means for the average taxpayer and their families. And explain if you can why members of congress would still be getting better healthcare benefits than private citizens, along with the wisdom of spending a few extra trillion in a time of economic hardship. And maybe also explain the wisdom (or lack thereof) of handing over anything to a bureaucracy that doesn't run anything efficiently, or try explaining that profit motives, competition, and individual ingenuity have always led to greater cost control and effectiveness. The list goes on and on.
