Am I the only one amused by the fact that today's quote cites Bacon for breakfast?
HAVE YOU SEEN ME?
Cory's constituents want to know…How long can Cory Gardner continue to dodge his constituents? , Can he continue to discount them as "paid protesters"?.
You probably need to add that evidence of life via phone call isn't enough.
Why would he think they are paid protesters?
Or perhaps he saw this ad?
Or perhaps it was this request?
I have no idea how Gardner could possibly have concluded that they were paid protesters.
Sure. I can believe that Gardner saw an ad for summer jobs, working on environmental issues, and that he would infer from that ad that there would be protesters at his winter town hall meeting pissed off about, for instance, the Affordable Care Act. It's not evidence, of course. However I can see how Gardner's mind works. Thanks.
Now show us proof that the citizens who have demonstrated outside Sen. Gardner's office, Congressman Tipton's office, and Congressman Coffman's office were hired and paid by any of these organizations (or others) to do so. I'm sure you can provide such evidence. Right?
You can see them lined up to get their salaries via SorosPay here:
The evidence is incontrovertible on this one, folks.
Only if he'd seen these ads at a KC Royals victory celebration.
You putz.
AC – have you applied? Those "activist jobs" are canvassing/ signature gathering/ fundraising and cold calling gigs. It's a great way to gain some political experience, but there isn't a big payday involved. My daughter happens to be one kick-ass cold calling fundraiser….She has a great future in sales, and possibly politics. She and her coworkers have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Planned Parenthood, the ACLU, and other worthy organizations this year alone.
Showing up to talk with your congressman is a strictly volunteer affair. To pass the screening, one has to actually live in Colorado and be a registered voter. But it doesn't matter – cowardly Cory won't talk to his constituents. And he'll continue to spin his refusal by dismissing and discounting the very people he should be communicating with.
