Open or closed health care town halls? Easy answer: *IOKIYAR

Our friends at Fired Up are reporting:

Bond, McConnell & McCain Holding Private "Health Care Reform Forum" Monday in Kansas City

Monday, Senators Kit Bond, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and John McCain will be the featured guests at a "Health Care Reform Forum" at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City.

The 75-100 guests invited to the event have reportedly been "hand-picked" by Bond's office to hear about Republican plans for obstructing real health care reform.

The forum is closed to the public.

Heh. Maybe they're afraid the great unwashed would try to hold them accountable for Medicare Part D.

It's one thing to not do town halls because they've been going badly, it's quite another to hold a fake one and hand pick your crowd.

*it's okay if you're a republican

Todd Akin wouldn't even permit Republicans to ask questions (0.00 / 0)
at his only event so far (unless he sneaked in and did something I don't know about).  What about other "little" Republicans in Missouri?

Could you imagine... (0.00 / 0)
..the uproar if the teabaggers they encouraged and helped unleash turned on them. It'd be comical.

Sorry, I keep forgetting. It'd never happen. *IOKIYAR.
