What happens when a Congress Critter has to confront his constituents...

This is what YOUR Senators should face when they come home and lie about legislation...
This is Mike Castle of Delaware on day 3 of his 'health care town hall' circuit being hammered again about his Cap and Tax vote...note the response when he lies...
Best. YouTube. Video. Evar.
I liked it a lot. Very frankand straightforward---he read the Crap and Betray bill all....alll...the way through, but doesn't claim that he understood it.

Thank you.

I bet "town hall meetings" will be very scarce after a few meetings like this one.
I think the disconnect between what our elected servants do and what their voters want is perhaps the greatest thing we have undermining the country.

I think that's the second greatest thing we have undermining this country.
I think that the greatest thing undermining this country is the fact that our government has mistaught our children and as a consequence, they don't understand what this country was founded upon, what our rights are, or that the government was meant to be limited and exist only by consent of the peope
The gang of four Pinhead , Michaud, Snowejob and Collins are much to busy thoroughly reading and analyising
each piece of legislation to waste thier valuable time actually speaking one on one with taxpayers......if they did when would they have time to solict campaign contributions???
Now get back to work and stop asking silly questions of your betters.
Posted to my Facebook page. I hope this gets out to as many people as possible. Obviously he represents his staff if his constituents were asking him to vote against it at a 3/2 ratio. Much like the gang of four in Maine who at 10/1 ratios against still voted for the Americans With Jobs Theft Act, AKA Stimulus Bill.
Here we have yet another Congressman being booed and laughed at when he lies to his voters over health care

This is exactly what I was thinking as I watched the video. We ought to demand town meetings like these with our elected officials here in Maine. We should get conservative canidates to do these meetings so we can expose the tax & spenders in our state government.
You know, JohnW I waited 20 mins the other day on John MacDonald's show to speak with Chelle Pinegree," Pinhead " . I heard the program end after 20 mins. of her singing the praises of the health bill. The call screener came on the line and announced that she did not have time to take questions!
As folk all over the country are discovering, if you want to get any real attention from ones servants, you need to go to their offices in person and get in their staffies face.
Some examples

etc...
Folk are getting organized and have figured out that calling is useless, voice mail is never heard, E-mails are deleted, but in-your-face, still works.
More trouble for those poor elected officials

Great video! I imagine Day 3 of that town hall tour was also the final day?
I have yet to see our two senators do anything even remotely like a town hall meeting about health care, cap & trade, or any other issue. I'm not sure if they do such things in southern Maine, but I have not yet seen anything like this in northern Maine. If ever they decide to do such a thing, I will be there.
