Be sure and check out the links to some of the townhall meetings.

Rep. Tim Bishop, D-N.Y., has called off further events.

"I had felt they would be pointless," he said. "There is no point in meeting with my constituents and [to] listen to them...

That would be as pointless as actually reading legislation before voting on it.

“”I had felt they would be pointless,” he said. “There is no point in meeting with my constituents....”

Wait....when did they ever start listening in the first place? This government is so arrogant they do not care. I fear that the next set of elections will be rigged and if they support communism they’ll be assured by the mobsters that they’ll get re-elected!
They simply do not care and that’s why I am concerned...

Thank you for the link. Interesting to watch the other side squirm.

People are waking up you filthy pig to what you idiots are doing to our wonderful country..I feel you and you friends in Washington should go back and vote the way the people want and not the way your god wants you to vote..Wither that or your happy ass will be kicked out of Washington..Are you more afraid of the Muslim or the people..

And be sure to vote in the poll — it’s pretty interesting already.

Brian Smoot, who served as political director at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, warned Republicans about engaging in these kinds of ambushes.

That's a good sign. Means it's working.

When RATS give Republicans advice "for their own good", we're getting to them. It's a signal to do more, not less. It also means they are afraid we are not a fringe minority.

Funny how when paid lefty protesters get violent, it's just "free speech".

“I had felt they would be pointless,” he said. “There is no point in meeting with my constituents and [to] listen to them and have them listen to you if what is basically an unruly mob prevents you from having an intelligent conversation.”

You dont meet with YOUR constituents, you report to your bosses for instructions on how to conduct yourself representing them.

What a pompous ass

Maybe the Rep. from NEW YORK, is a clunker, and needs to be sacrificed,,,he too probably will SCREAM just like the motors die...

"Rep. Tim Bishop, D-N.Y., has called off further events."

Ain't that just like a democrat? Hit (with bailouts and health debacles) and run. Hiding behind the cops they like to call "racist".

If the likes of "Joe the Plumber", "Sgt. Crowley", and the CEO's of investment firms can be inondated with protesters (bused in by ACORN), why can't we find where these congresswimps live and camp out in THEIR street and raise hell for a while.

Regardless what the RINO's say, you have to fight fire, with fire...it's the only thing the opposition understands.

I hope it happens with this guy, and every other one who is voting our country down the drain without even reading the damn bills.

Rep. Bishop, I'll call you what you are...Chicken $h1+.

They want to get rid of the baby boomers. It’s not just about the money we don’t have to pay for it; it’s about political power over us.

[Minn]

Be prepared to see and read a whole lot about how this is all AstroTurf, and how evil organized right-wing interests are dispatching their drones to drown out democracy. It’ll be just the same way the media reacts when ACORN sends their drones to picket at a banker’s house.

... an unruly mob prevents you from having an intelligent conversation."

The problem is that there has been a dearth of "intelligent conversations" in the past few decades. Bishop, et. al., want to continue unimpeded in their dictatorial ways.
