WATB’s

by Jon DeVore — Tuesday, 9/1/09, 10:59 am

State GOP executive board member whines that Rep. Brian Baird, D-WA-03, will not hold a town hall meeting at her house.

I’m so old I remember when reporters looked at you as a questionable source if you blogged, but apparently having over one hundred thousand thousand Twitter followers makes you a trustworthy source.

Where would she get the time to set up for a town hall at her house?

AND– As someone points out to me, how the hell is it a town hall if the GOP official gets to do the invites, even if she did promise to invite “all sides?” Geebus. That’s not a town hall, it’s a garden party.

    A few years ago, I invited Bush to hold a Social Security townhall in my burrow, and got the same answer.

    Cut-And-Run Republicans Dep’t …

    Even weirder is conservative pundit George Will’s column calling for U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. Is he crazy? Does he want another 9/11 attack?

    In the Columbian article linked to, the Ilwaco wacko (sorry to everyone who had to read that) is quoted as saying “These town halls have not had a real dialogue.” NFS!
