Teabaggers Heckle Grieving Family

This article was first posted at Left of the Hudson: Progressive News and Views for Rockland County by Cliff Weathers.

Chicago Tea Party “Patriots” heckled a grieving family at a town hall meeting on November 14 and suggested that they fabricated their tragic story for political reasons.

At the town hall held by Democratic Congressman Dan Lipinski, Dan and Midge Hough told how the death of their daughter-in-law and their unborn grandchild were partly caused by a lack of healthcare insurance.

The Hough’s daughter-in-law Jennifer was uninsured and not receiving needed prenatal care. Jennifer contracted pneumonia which lead to a heart attack and a stroke. The Hough’s unborn grandchild died and Jennifer passed on days later.

While Midge Hough was being shouted down by the unruly mob of teabaggers, she stood her ground and through her tears she said: “You can laugh at me, that’s okay, but I lost two people, and I know you think that’s funny, that’s okay.”
