My GOP congressman is not having town halls about Soc. Sec.
My Democratic Senator Nelson is having them. I don't know about Martinez.

But Congressman Adam "Opie" Putnam, genuine Bush devotee, strong advocate of privatizing...is not having any.

Guess he feels he can not make his case. I called his office to make sure. They did not want to answer, stalled me, but finally said no. He has voted 100% with Bush on everything, so I guess he will on this.

He has voted 10% for the people of Florida's good.

2. Ninny Brown-Waite is having them next week
But her usual modus operandi is that all questions have to be submitted in writing early.

Gee, I guess we'll have to yell at her.

And my Congressman, Bilirakis isn't having any either.

4. I have already asked him.
I have an email from him, a personal one to me, which I am keeping. It is just plain ugly. I have shared it with others, and they are furious. I intend to share it further through email lists.

He is most arrogant little red-headed twit I have ever seen. I think a lot of people are getting the message now about his true colors.

5. Could you please PM it to me?
This should be some good entertainment:evilgrin:

Maybe the Rethuglikkkans are afraid of town-hall meetings because they might expose the shallowness of their man-date?:)
