Reply #33: Smart People Don't Act Like Jerks [View All]

The Connecticut events I've been to, so far, have been and anti-Lieberman Iran war thing in New Haven, a MoveOn health care thing at Dodd's office & an Obama organized public option thing in Lieberman's building (the staff came down to great us).

These events were all small at best & everyone was well behaved.

This town hall event obviously brought out the FOX crowd, but it does show the racism that exists in Connecticut.

I work in a CT manufacturing facility that employs many Spanish speaking folks. Sometimes the "reverse racism" thing rears its ugly head.

There are one or two towns not to drive through if you're an African American as you have a good chance of being stopped by police.

After being educated by Air America, Nova M, and the Thom Hartmann show I decided to take folks on and talk about politics. Now a "liberal" reputation follows me around.

Have found that Representative Joe Courtney's staffers are way hipper than Lieberman's or Dodds!
