Compromising position? Oh, that means they can have visual proof of what he said when he denies he said it.

Baron Hill - one of the most smug and arrogant SOBs on Capitol Hill. (But comes back to be all folksy and homespun for the naive Hoosiers who voted for him.)

Sounds like Baron Hill really thinks he’s a “Baron”. I’d say he’s extremely paranoid, and considering what he has to try and defend and the lies he’ll have to tell, he has reason to be.

make me look like a tyrannical, jackass Leftist of a Democrat who doesn’t want to be exposed for what I am and drag what little popularity I have and my party has down the drain.”
No filming for you!

Baron Hill, D-Moron. I don’t know why this jerk was worried about the girls ruining his image—he did that perfectly well on his own.

If he paid for the venue, then its his town hall and his rules.
If taxpayers paid for the venue, I’d say he’s wrong.

A democrat is in a “compromising position” when they open their pie hole.
To: Free ThinkerNY
When is his term up? The people should let him know who can or can not sit in that office.

Unedited film / video does not lie. If he’s that worried about it maybe he should try not saying things or agreeing with things that are so radical?

The first question after that should have been...and who do you work for? followed by...so then whose town hall is this again?
