Shea-Porter and Hodes Avoid Town Halls to Speak to Liberal Blog Forums
August 14, 2009Kudos to Now Hampshire for reporting this.
If you have have been wondering whether or not Paul Hodes and Carol Shea-Porter were going to hold any Town Hall meetings in their respective districts this August, to discuss hot issues like health care, the answer is no. Both Hodes and Shea-Porter are too cowardly to face their constituents and will instead speak at liberal blog forums. CSP will even be going to Pittsburg, PA to avoid NH citizens.
A second member of New Hampshire’s congressional delegation is opting to meet with liberal bloggers instead of holding town hall meetings with constituents on the issue of health reform.
Rep. Carol Shea-Porter (NH-01) will speak in Pittsburg, PA today at Netroots Nation, an enclave of liberal bloggers intended to promote liberal public policy, educate activists on internet communication techniques and even enjoy “everything from massages to beer tastings to author signings.”
Netroots Nation is sponsored by several politically powerful unions as well as the influential liberal blog Daily Kos.
Shea-Porter has not held any town hall meetings with constituents this August recess and has no such publicly scheduled events for the balance of the month.
One would think that Carol Shea-Porter would see the value in holding a Town Hall meeting seeing as she made a name for herself harassing former Congressman Jeb Bradley and was infamously escorted out of an event featuring President Bush. One can’t get over the blatant hypocrisy of liberals.

Wow,Is this one load of garbage from our idiot “Mayor.” If this fool ever gets down to Washington he will be the first guy to sign up for the party line. As the most lazy guy under the sun, he will just say “Youser” to anything the GOP leadership passes under his nose.
We would replace one rubber stamp for another!
Thanks, but NO THANKS@

I love it when the trolls reveal their own ignorance. If anonymous insults are all they have to offer, we’re in for a good year.

I was very disappointed that CSP does not see fit to meet face to face with her constituents, others then those who pay $25 for the pleasure, but seeks the anonymity of a conference call. It is almost Orwellian to think that our government officials want to communicate to us over a speaker phone. But, she will fly to Pittsburgh to meet non-constituents face to face. This certainly tells us where the constituents rank to CSP.
