Dem Rep. Russ Carnahan Gets Nailed by Local Radio Host at "Secret" Press Conference - Video 8/7/09
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | August 7, 2009 | BrianinMO

Posted on 08/07/2009 6:44:51 PM PDT by Federalist Patriot

Here is video of Missouri Democrat Rep. Russ Carnahan holding a "secret press conference" this morning with selected members of the media to talk about the chaotic Town Hall Meeting in St. Louis yesterday. A conservative African-American man was beaten by SEIU Union thugs outside the meeting.

This video shows a local radio personality who was not invited to Carnahan's secret conference showing up anyway! He nails Carnahan repeatedly on the attack. Carnahan does not come across as very capable in the poor way he tries to answer the questions.

Gateway Pundit has all the details. . . . . . (Watch Video)

What’s the point of having Congressional representatives who won’t take questions from the public? They work for us, we don’t work for them.

They do not work for us. They work for themselves, their friends, their contributors and lobbyists. Harry Reid once told me that - not kidding.

Kathy “Catastophy” Castor is in the same boat. She is history here in Tampa. We really got to the little Skunk yesterday.

Oh, I believe that wholeheartedly! This little crowd of Washington elitists isn’t worth a bucket of warm spit!

Good job by the reporter who “snuck” in. Carnahan looked like a deer caught in the headlights. What a pipsqueak little mouse.

And a liar to boot.

The fact of the matter is these representatives know that they are looking in the faces of their own constituents for the most part regardless of what the party is saying.

OH! I’m gonna tell! He said the “black guy attacked me.” He’s racist! Call Cynthia Tucker.

(Wait, can a black guy be a racist if he uses race to describe the black man who attacked him?)

On a lighter note, ya gotta love the white women in the video. You know women are serious when the names start to fly as they did in this video: “Asshole!” “Bitch!” 8 seconds in, the white woman with the cigarette. LMAO! I am not making light of the attack. But sometimes the humor in the situation cannot go unnoticed.

Perhaps these people attending these “Townhall Meetings” would not be so upset if they could get some honest answers from their representatives to start with. I email and snailmailed Claire McCaskill several times. The form letter responses that she sent in reply pertained to nothing at all with the issues I contacted her about. Several other people I know got the same response from her when they wrote concerning the Stimulus Bill and the Health Care Bill. Calling her office and talking to her staff gets you the response “We don’t know how she feels about that issue” or “She hasn’t made up her mind yet”. She has no wish that I can see of hearing from her constituents or using her Congressional vote to seek what the majority favors. She has tied her future to Obama and it looks like she will stick to his mandates to the end. She stumped hard enough to get him elected. Her office must be getting a lot of flack though. They weren’t nearly as polite to me the last time I called, and sounded like they would rather be eating mud than answering her phones. Don’t think I’d want their job. Claire and Russ are “birds of a feather.”
