got a thank you letter from my Congressman for coming to town hall

[tabbycat31]

what he did not realize when writing this letter was that his town hall was not exactly civil in nature. And he could not hold down shouting matches. He's rather soft spoken, and a miked Congressman was not as loud as a screaming teabagger.

As much I'd love to participate in democracy in action, the schoolyard bully mentality of the teabaggers there will push me to the letters, emails, and phone calls instead. I really wish it was not that way.

Here's my original recap of the town hall

1. Dear Constituent

I would like to thank you for attending my recent town hall meeting. A review of video tape from the event shows that you were one of the few civilized citizens, the few that were there to become more informed and ask meaningful and sincere questions. Please attend any and all future events of this nature.

Again, thank you for not being one of those GOD DAMNED FUCKING NAZI FOX ASSHOLES (pant, pant, pant). Sorry.

Sincerely,

Your Congress Critter

2. I actually did not ask a question

I had one but whenever anyone that was not a teabagger wanted to ask any sort of question, we were shouted down.
