Carol Shea-Porter owes a LOT of her constituents apologies for calling them lewd “Tea-baggers”

Update: I called her DC office (202) 225-5456) and asked if they knew what Carol called thousands of her constituents – no clue.  I told them that I’m expecting her to apologize.

Start calling, folks!

==================================

Filed under "Character", as this shows she has none (as well as no "Class" either).

Thanks, Congresswomen Carol Shea-Porter (D-NH, Congressional District 1) for calling me and all the other folks that have shown up for the TEA Parties here in NH or are of like mind:

A CRUDE, LEWD, SEXUAL TERM!

I have no intention of defining the term here, but it is clear from this story in Foster‘s that’s EXACTLY what Carol Shea-Porter thinks of us that want a smaller government, a less intrusive government, and want stop government from spending our grand-kids into ruin:

Shea-Porter bumps into GOP Senate hopeful Ayotte on the way to Portsmouth cookout

PORTSMOUTH — Before Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter arrived at a backyard picnic-styled health care rally Thursday night, she stopped at a downtown hotel where her staff is staying and found herself face-to-face with those who say she’s promoting a government takeover of the nation’s health care system.

The encounter happened after bumping into former Attorney General Kelly Ayotte, who’s exploring a run for Senate and was addressing the city’s Republican Committee at the Portsmouth Sheraton. But Shea-Porter, a two-term Democratic representative from Rochester, said Ayotte "was speaking to the tea-baggers" — a reference to the activists who started making waves earlier this year following a "tea party" protest against outsized government spending.

"They walked around me and they’re videotaping me," Shea-Porter told the estimated 150 to 200 people who were invited by pro-health care reform groups to a Spring Street home. "I chose to go there because I wanted to talk to them about what this is really about. And I ask you to do that also. Don’t be so divided and so put off that you don’t feel like you can have a conversation."

If people want reform — and by their applause the crowd showed they emphatically support a public health insurance option — they have to "message" it, Shea-Porter said.

"Find those tea-baggers who don’t like the idea of this and talk to them. You won’t get all of them, but I think when they realize we’re still going to be an employer-based insurance system in this country, and that it is a choice — one choice among many choices — it takes away that sense of fear, that sense that they’re losing control over their lives. They’re not. What’s happening is we’re giving some people who haven’t had any choice, a choice."

Such a choice would be part of a health insurance exchange that, with the exception of the public option, would offer private insurance, Shea-Porter explained. When she asked for a show of hands from those who understand the plan, the vast majority of people kept their hands at their side.

"It shows how far we have to go," Shea-Porter later said.

Organizers— which included Organizing for America, a grassroots arms of the Democratic National Committee, the SEIU, Health Care for America Now! and New Hampshire for Health Care — said the majority of people at the home were supportive of reform. But even supporters said complete change will take time.

Congressman Paul Hodes, D-Concord, said there’s reason to be hopeful. "We are facing up to what the opponents of change — to what the flat-earth society — is trying to put over on us, which is keep the status quo and what they care about is health scare, not health care. But we know that that tide is not going to wash up on our shores."

Speaking to reporters, Shea-Porter didn’t say why her staff was at the hotel, but she’s holding a public town-hall meeting in the city Saturday. She said the "tea-baggers" were quizzing her on the logistics, including why it’s being held at a federal building where attendees will need to go through security checks.

So, we see that it wasn’t a simple slip of the tongue, a single instance of a gaffe, but a series of slurs! Now, last week she chose to be with left wing Progressive bloggers from Blue Hampshire and Markos from DailyKos where BOTH sites have used that nasty pejorative. 

But for a sitting Congresswoman to do that?

Carol, how DARE you call THOUSANDS of NH citizens that!

I know that you are voting for the Cap N’Tax that will regulate the tar out of our lives as well as vacuum our wallets for the biggest, largest tax EVAH in the history of the world.  I know that you want Government to be in charge of every single tiny detail of our healthcare by voting for Obamacare.

I also know that you want the IRS, also because of your vote for Obamacare, to have real-time access to all our financial records (to see if we qualify donors or as welfare recipients for Obamacare).

But to think you would stoop so low as to get into our bedrooms?  Or simply accuse of a sexual practice that many of us didn’t know what it was until the Progressives started to use the term widely?

Frankly, I want to see your apology to me and the others that believe that Government has grown too big for its britches here on GraniteGrok, on our radio show, on all the other radio shows and sites that are like minded AND ads taken out in the media to apologize to your constituents!

How about it Carol??

Now this is a really quick post, as unlike many that might support her, I gotta go to work.  

Thanks for the hand SLAP across the aisle, there, Carol!  I hope somebody runs against you in the Democrat Primary – I am REALLY tempted to register as a Democrat to do JUST that – and send MONEY to them as well.  And maybe, just maybe, be nice to them here at the ‘Grok.

All that said?  You STILL owe us an apology!!!
