Obama Used Plants In Health Care Town Hall

The second person "randomly" chosen for a question was a young girl. It turns out her mother, Kathleen-Manning-Hall, is a huge Obama supporter and friends with many Democratic insiders. You can see her to the right of her daughter in the above picture. She has donated hundreds to Obama and went to the inauguration where she attended the Eastern Ball (pictures from her Facebook page)which the Obamas and Bidens also attended. Not surprisingly, Kathleen's daughter, Julia, had a prepared written question to read. Obama used this question to dismiss talk about "death panels that will pull the plug on Grandma."

Here are some of Julia's mother's Facebook connections:

Back to Kathleen's Facebook Page, here are some of her Facebook friends that I googled to see if they were Democratic insiders:

Like Obama said: “I don’t want people saying I just have a bunch of plants in here.” Busted!
