It was enjoyable, perhaps the best thing was watching the lefties try to get away with disrupting and wanting to take over the meeting. Unfortunately for them, there were too many of us. I loved the impeach Bambi sign the guy was holding up when we left the parking lot.

Our nefarious activities for the afternoon. A good way for the NSA to identify us!

Stay on him. Benishek’s a good guy but gets a lot of pressure from establishment to toe the line because he’s in a tough district.

Thanks for the FReport, Lakeshark.
It’s always good to get real information from real people [and not what the left-media wants us to hear.]
Thanks for posting ;)

We planned to attend but got side-tracked in Esky. Appreciate the report as fellow TEA party members have real concerns about Dr. Ben.

This is very similar to our townhall last might with Rob Woodall. People were pretty riled up about the coming CR vote and Obamacare, Immigration and Benghazi. We had a few libtarId loons that showed up to support Obamacare.
Our rep is a decent, standup guy and almost always votes the right way but he is no rabble rouser and our district keeps trying to get him to fire it up a little more. That is just not his style. But unlike a lot of these guys he showed up and took the heat. It did get a little heated from time to time.

Thanks, Lakeshark. I appreciate the ping and the report.
We do have to stay on them. They have to know someone is watching.
Just out of curiosity, when any NSA questions came up, did the libs show support at that point?

This is the old district of the lying SOB Bart Stupak, democrat rep who claimed to be pro-life, then betrayed everyone and supported Obamacare in one of the finest Benedict Arnold moves in American politics. He quit knowing he was going to be beat like a drum.

Showing up took guts for these guys. I doubt the dem reps do this. It did get sharp, thank goodness we outnumbered the totalitarian leftists who wanted to hijack the meeting.
You described it like ours......hats off to Georgia Girl for going!

When he spoke of Benghazi, the IRS, or the NSA the libs were curiously muted.
No response at all now that you have me thinking about it. You've got me pondring that they're either embarassed, delusional, and somewhat dealing with cognitive dissonance about all those scandals.
Imagine if the MSM actually reported on them.......

A lot of the libs support opposition to the NSA.
You’re right about Benghazi and the IRS....it embarrasses them.

Their opposition to the NSA revelations just confuses them cause their guy is in control of its growth.

Thanks for the report. Benishek had a close election in ‘12 winning by less than 2,000 votes. Sometimes Libertarian and Green Party candidates help our side.
Dan Benishek (R) 48.1% 167,060
Gary McDowell (D) 47.6% 165,179
Emily Salvette (Lib.) 3.1% 10,630
Ellis Boal (Green) 1.2% 4,168
