Where is all the Dissent at an Obama Town Hall?

Question of the day: Where is all the dissent at Obama’s town hall health care events?

From Instapundit reader Richard Halferty:

Why are all the questions at the Obama town hall meetings softballs? Where is the dissent shown at ALL the other town hall meetings? Maybe its just me, but I think many people are afraid to speak out at an Obama Town Hall meeting. Whether its Chicago style, Union goon reprisals, or a tax audit, people are just leery of what action this administration is capable of doing.

I think there’s something to that. Just ask Joe the Plumber.

But, I think Glenn Reynolds is also correct in noting that, “it’s just the usual hand-picked questioners. But there’s this. And it’s true, the audit stuff is no laughing matter.“
