Illinois Reps. Mark Kirk and Judy Biggert wrote in a letter Tuesday that their constituents had apparently scheduled meetings to discuss health care reform with them after receiving an Aug. 9 e-mail from BarackObama.com urging them to do so. 

Two Republican lawmakers complained in a letter to President Obama this week that Democratic organizers scheduled meetings between the two lawmakers and their constituents without ever notifying them.

Illinois Reps. Mark Kirk and Judy Biggert wrote in a letter Tuesday that their constituents had apparently signed up for meetings to discuss health care reform with them after receiving an Aug. 9 e-mail from BarackObama.com urging them to do so.

"However, the names of our constituents and the times they wished to visit were never communicated to us," the letter said.

Doesn’t this mean that they are just preaching to the choir? Seems to me if they only had meetings with the SEIU, they aren’t accomplishing a dam thing.

They are not interested in any real dialogue. And you will get no answer from Obama. This is his plan, the very thing he is training them to do with his onw contrived Town Halls.

But the slumbering giant is stirring all the same.

As a result, the lawmakers claimed more than 20 constituents came to their district offices Monday.

Wow! The Organizer-in-Chief sure is rallying the troops! ;-)

The Alinsky rules for Radicals appears to have a fatal flaw. It neglects to tell them what to do once they fool the people in to voting for them.

When Barry tells his supporters to "get up in their face" regarding those who are not on board with his Marxist juggernaut, and individuals become educated on the language of HB3200 and choose to speak out, who is instigating the anger and heightened rhetoric?

Mark Kirk, a Republican Representative from my home state, the People's Republik of Illinois, is a Democrat in a Brook Brother's suit IMHO.

Why is he mad at The One. He was one of 8 Republicans voting for Cap and Tax IIRC.
