The Original Milk Carton Pol Decides To Show

Not the first to go on the milk carton but the first to bail on her constituents — and it looks like she’ll have company. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter, whose decision to duck town-hall forums surprised New Hampshire constituents who remember her pre-election town-hall antics, has decided to grace voters with her presence after all. However, she’s managed to schedule it at a time next Saturday when activists had planned to be elsewhere.

Don’t worry about attending Rep. Paul Hodes’ forum, however. Granite Grok reports that Hodes is holing up in a union hall for his constituent outreach. Apparently, he feels the need to cocoon himself from the rest of his constituents.

It’s bad when when people in NEW HAMPSHIRE show up to protest left wing policies.

It’s actually more fun than that.

I answered a call last night and was automatically connected to her “telephone town hall”.

Figures, as she’s gotten mail, but no vote, from me, but it was neat stuff: you listen, I talk, and you believe.

Uninvited on a Friday at 7 PM or so: maximum exposure, I’m sure!

I really hope that, in the end, this crap gets worked out, as I really don’t want to have to use the weapons. But, things going the way that they are, I don’t think I’ll have any other option, assuming that I hang around long enough, say roughly a couple of years.

Anyway, I didn’t bother to punch #3, as I take the normal amount of crap in life, and saw no point in looking for more.

That said, I think that NH is dead, since we’re collecting Massholes and “immigrants”, the latter placed by the feds.

So, I guess I’ll have to try either the south or the west for contract work, and see if there’s someplace to live that’s reasonably free, and stable for my better half.

No, she ran against a pro-abortion RINO = Jebb Bradley and won because there wasn’t much of a difference between them! We also had a LOT of people from Mass come across the border and vote for Obamessiah and his minions. In NH all you have t do si show up on the day of the election and say your moving to the State! No one even checks your ID, it is dispicable :o(

This term needs to go viral. All we need is for someone with photoshop experience to do the graphics.
