Culberson: Specter protester ‘spoke for me too’

Texas Rep. John Culberson (R) registered his satisfaction with comments made by a protester Sen. Arlen Specter’s (D-Pa.) nationally televised healthcare town hall on Tuesday.

Audience member Katy Abram’s criticism of Democratic policies garnered its own national attention; Fox News interviewed the 35-year-old after the meeting.

Culberson tweeted early Wednesday:

Katy Abrams spoke for me too at Sen Specter’s TH mtg today – Its not about Repub or Dem but restoring the Constit – We the People r fed up!

Katy Abrams of Penn was esp right when she said to Sen Specter, “You have awakened a sleeping giant!”

“I don’t believe this is just about healthcare, it’s not about TARP, it’s not about left and right. This is about the systematic dismantling of this country…you have awakened the sleeping giant,” Abram said at the town hall.

Here is video of Abram’s comment and interview:
