Liar Rep.Carol Shea-Porter (D-NH) Holds Townhall Meeting
Rep. Carol Shea-Porter (D-NH) held a town hall yesterday in Portsmouth, NH.
She told her "teabagger" constituents that they can't believe everything they hear and that there are no communists in Washington DC.
1st District Congresswoman CarolShea Porter is asked a question by a constituent regarding the corruption and thievery in Washington, and how she's going to fix it. The questioner noted that the country was taking a turn towards socialism and communism, and asked what Shea Porter was going to do to protect our liberties. A discussion about czars, ensued, where Carol denied there were 35 CZAR's , yet refused to tell the ausience how many there are. She also disagreed that we're going in that direction.

Rep. Carol Shea-Porter (D-NH) finally faces her constituents on at a health care town hall on August 29, 2009. The event was held in a small, but heavily guarded conference room at the Norris Cotton Federal Building in Manchester, NH. Many of her constituents were turned away from the event due to the space limitations of the venue. Shea-Porter has spent the majority of the congressional recess attending fundraisers and closed door events with liberal bloggers and special interest groups.
In four short years Carol Shea-Porter has evolved from a rabble-rousing, town hall disrupting anti-war activist who once had to be forcibly removed from a President George Bush event in Portsmouth to a Member of Congress who instructed armed security guards to remove a frustrated voter from her own town hall event in Manchester on Saturday.
In the appended video, Shea-Porter can be seen instructing security to remove a man for standing to ask a question without a ticket. Shea-Porter previously held a lottery to determine who could ask questions. She can also be heard taunting the man on his way out by saying, “I do hope the movie theater can be a little quieter for you.”
NowHampshire.com has learned that the gentlemen Shea-Porter removed, Carl Tomanelli from Londonderry, is a retired New York City patrolman.
In recent weeks, Shea-Porter has become, in the words of one Democratic operative who asked to remain anonymous, “unhinged.”
This week she derisively referred to opponents of health reform as “tea-baggers” in front of a crowd of liberal activists. She also accused former Attorney General Kelly Ayotte of colluding with the so-called “tea-baggers” after she bumped into her randomly at a hotel bathroom in Portsmouth.
During a radio program last week, Shea-Porter waved off a hostile question about the constitutionality of the health reform bill she supports because, “The Constitution did not cover everything.” Her response to the caller was grossly inapt. She compared Congress’ efforts to establish a so-called government option for health coverage to the City of Manchester establishing a police force.
“The irony is, of course, that Shea-Porter used to be a ‘tea-bagger’ on the left,” writes Nashua Telegraph columnist Kevin Landrigan. “She stalked then-congressman Jeb Bradley at town hall-style meetings the 1st District Republican incumbent held throughout his district.”
Four years ago Carol Shea-Porter protested at the State House alongside people dressed as Nazis while accusing the federal government of trying “to brand us like sheep.” On Saturday, she disparagingly referred to people who do not trust the same federal government to run our health care system as “these people.”
“We remember when, Carol, do you,” asks Landrigan.

WOW what a liar she is. Any person can go unline or even at a local library and find out we have communist members in our Congress and many other levels of government.

I am so glad to see stuff like this exposed. Heck, I couldn't have told you the names of more than a handful of congress critters a few years ago, now I know dozens...many of them I hope only temporarily as they get their pink slips in 2010.

So Carol Shea-Porter used to be a protester and disrupter. But she can't handle it now the shoe is on the other foot. The question that needs to be asked is how did she get elected? New Hampshire must have a lot of very liberal voters.

Eden, yes me too, I am so looking forward
to so many of them getting their pink slips.

Tom, she reminds me of Pelosi and how
Pelosi put down the Townhall protesters
and then we found out Pelosi said she
loved the anti-war signs and people that
yelled. What a pair these two are.
