by T.L. James | 10:19 pm, August 28, 2011

Here is the full video from yesterday morning’s town hall meeting in Littleton. A local MoveOn.org organizer was trying last week to get people to show up and ask questions featuring the inane mantra “Jobs Not Cuts” — as you’ll see, a couple people worked it into their questions/statements, and the rest just heckled in [...]

Earlier today, I got a hold of an SEIU email instructing the union thugs on how they were going to ambush Congressman Mike Coffman’s town hall meeting on health reform this evening. Let me share that email with you before we get into some of the pictures I was able to take outside the town [...]
