Rep. Carol Shea-Porter, a New Hampshire Democrat, has had it with these unruly protesters with their tasteless and disruptive chants, shouts, and outlandish attire.

Jamie Radice, a Shea-Porter spokeswoman said, “The purpose of town halls is to allow members of Congress to hear from their constituents, provide information about legislation, and to exchange ideas and perspectives. While it is unfortunate that a small group of people are trying to disrupt this democratic process, Congresswoman Shea-Porter remains committed to discussing health care reform with her constituents.”
Radice said she is planning on one telephone town hall meeting and two open houses for senior citizens later this month with goal of reaching “as many constituents as possible, and to help ensure that a productive dialogue takes place.”

You know, when people march around with Nazi logos and such. Oh, wait . . .

More than 100 people — some dressed as Nazis, others wearing three-cornered hats – gathered on the State House lawn. Though the group’s political leanings spanned the spectrum, they agreed that the system is a bad idea, citing identity theft, Big Brother and the violation of the United States Constitution.
“We have to decide . . . if we’re going to stand by like sheep as they brand us,” said Carol Shea-Porter, a Rochester Democrat (who was not in costume) running for Congress against Republican Jeb Bradley.

Keep in mind, I’m not a fan of national ID, and there are parallels to be made to totalitarian states (though I would have probably gone with the terse “papers, please” and the warm courtesy of East German border guards). But if you participate in protests with folks dressed up like Nazis, you’re really not the right person to cry foul when people do it in response to your stances . . .
