Paul Ryan Townhall Meeting Astroturfer: Master of Disguise!
**Written by Doug Powers
If you want to make a few extra bucks, put a Groucho glasses vending machine outside Paul Ryan’s townhalls. Just a hunch.
From USA Today:
GREENFIELD, Wis. — At the last of four events on Rep. Paul Ryan’s “listening tour” of his district Thursday, he called on a man in the front row of a high school auditorium, then instantly recognized him.
“You changed clothes!” Ryan told Steve Jozefczyk. The 54-year old salesman from Franklin, Wis., had asked Ryan several critical questions from the front row of an event six hours earlier in Waterford, when he wore a shirt and tie. In Greenfield, it was a black “Faux News” parody T-shirt.
Josefczyk admitted trying to trick Ryan into calling on him again. But Ryan listened anyway.
Ryan might be recognizing a lot of the same faces in the crowd in coming days:
Citizens Action of Wisconsin and the Milwaukee Labor Council have enlisted a traveling band of seniors to follow Paul Ryan’s every move while he conducts town halls across the state.
“They have been and they will be trailing all his listening sessions and do their best to get themselves heard.
For some reason I’m reminded of the sitcom “Cheers” when Woody was acting in a local production of “12 Angry Men” — except they only had six actors, so as a result “we all had to act twice as furious.”
As for the master of disguise at Paul Ryan’s townhall(s), a quick search brought me to this book that I think is written by the same Obamaniac.

Well at least Ryan will get good at answering the same question over and over again.
Idiots.
Sounds like stalking to me. Palin or Ryan, to each his own I guess.
And people wonder why hatred of the Socialist vermin is gaining steam, more and more the Socialist Democrats are resorting to these kinds of disruptions and sooner or later someone is going to cold cock one of these thugs.
It’s necessary when you don’t shower but every quarter, if then.
They are just trying to lower employment by hiring these seniors to attend the meetings.
Pearls or diamonds?
from amazon.com:
…by offering a first-hand demonstration of what a lunatic is?
Guess what ads MSNBC and CNN reject?
This is a war for the corrupted hearts and damaged minds of America. The enemy is pulling out all stops, and we can’t get our own side to even admit there’s an enemy.
Sounds like someone has too much time on their hands.
I wonder what this salesman sells.

Either it starts with an “S” and ends with “nakeoil” or it’s just pure BS.
It’s worse than that. Some of our side is the enemy.
At least they weren’t selling milk!
Feds sting Amish farmer selling raw milk locally
Doing the same thing over and over again with the same results is ____? Oh yeah…”one sane voice among thousands of teabaggers.”
I guess if one changes clothes between events, that makes a difference…?No, it’s still looney, and even a little bit creepy!
But, still…you go Stevie! You be the best little commie stool (Yes, I meant it that way!) you can be, although at age 54, one would think you would have grown up by now. (Gosh…he’s just so precious!) I’ll bet in his spare time he plays at being an “academic.”
Jimmy Carter is 86 years old and we’re still waiting for him to grow up, so don’t hold your breath.
Paul Ryan has dreamy eyes…just sayins all.
How come Republicans always do this?

Tells me all I need know about this moron.
Can we start calling idiot like this…
“Knee-Padders”
As they are happy to get on their knees and service Obama at a whim?
I think it’s only fair given the definition of teabagger.

Tell that to the Amish Milk farmers – seems like the Fearless Leader Regime is more interested in the Amish Milk Crime Wave than securing our borders or catching terrorists -
I already posted the story
They do this because they believe in truth and fairness. What Sally Kern said was right on the money, but the politically correct crowd that is trying to destroy this country will rip anyone to shreds who tries to point out the truth, in the name of not hurting the feelings of people who massively deserve to have their feelings hurt.
You might be one of the most ignorant individuals I gratefully never had to meet. If you don’t know what I am referring to, then I have made my point.
From AoS HQ, evidently A Huge Protest Crowd Gathered, and Exploded Outside Paul Ryan’s Town hall Meeting yesterday…
How come all liberals suppress criticism? Answer the question or go home:

Dear ilovetodoittomyself: Go Away if you can’t contribute to the current subject at hand (pun intended).
Btw, the NAACP and other race-hustling organizations are making a big stink out of Kern’s remarks
“commit racism”? As if it’s a crime?
It may be ugly, it may be foolish, but it’s everyone’s right to discriminate based upon any criteria they wish. Hate is not a crime. Nor should it be. For when you outlaw hatred of that which you embrace, you outlaw hatred for that which you feel deserves hatred.
If it weren’t for the race hustlers, she wouldn’t have had to offer an apology at all.
Here’s the definition of “apologize”. Skip to about 01:50 to start viewing the definition.
Gee… Sally Kern’s site is overloaded… DoS attack, maybe? Or just plain left-wing hate merchants attack?

Prog widgets. Or, maybe some fancy doo-dad that reminds them what they are supposed to be selling. Yeah, I know that sounds circular reasoning but it sounded good at the time.
Well sure – the Obama Administration is worried the Amish might not be in favor of trains…
guess they can not get enough people to go to these meetings. I do not agree with the Ryan plan. It does not cut enough and it will cause taxes to rise. No rise in taxes, just cut spending

Amish farmers sell raw milk locally all of the time, just not for drinking. It goes to nearby cheese factories to make that wonderful Swiss cheese I like so much. I grew up in OH in Amish country (although I am not nor ever have been Amish) so I know of what I speak.
Okay folks, who here thinks that ILMC is a plant from kos or huffpo?
—Mother’s basement speculations are optional.—
All he does is quote stories from liberal sites and posts the entire web address for everyone to see.
I think someone’s into free advertising.
Uhm… they like promoting breastfeeding… is breastmilk pasturized?
Ever notice how Ihatemymomndad most always opens with a dumb a$$ question? He’s more boring than the other libs on here.
Is anyone else curious just what country ILMC loves? Obviously, it isn’t this one.
Smile
Hey everybody, have a nice weekend, and let’s say a prayer for the folks affected by the tornados.
ILMC
Remember when Bill Cosby said almost exactly the same thing as Sally Kern? Haven’t heard much from Ole’ Bill lately, have we?
Just sayin’.
Here, here!
I agree.
It was rogue milk. Branding violation.
Here’s the weird part. I’ll bet that most of the buyers of the raw milk are liberals. The story says they are from DC and Maryland. So, the liberal we-need-to-have-gov’t-intrude-in-our-daily-lives-for-healthcare crowd is now screaming to get-the-gov’t-out-of-my-daily-life-because-i-want-to-drink-raw-milk mantra.
Do you think they could figure out that if the gov’t was out of your everyday life about everything, it would just be much easier? Nah!
Congressman. Districts. Constituents.
I never thought of paid actors and out of district stalkers. What a concept. Gosh. Leave it to the unions to come up with that fancy stuff.
Who pays for all that?
Rogue, I suggest you hire Chappy and file a lawsuit. Include the feds in the suit, too. They have deep pockets and the printing presses are still going full bore. Before you know it, you’ll have a boatload of little pieces of paper with numbers on them. Just like the Chinese…
He may be an X-Pres, but he is a moron, so that doesn’t count. Perhaps some senility setting in, but that’s no excuse for choosing sides against your own country, and freedom.
I think the question is who doesn’t pay for that? The answer would be the unions, their members, and the gov’t. So that leaves….
This sounds like a person who will smile in your face as they stab you in the back. No thanks. Not buying it.
Only trains pulled by mule teams.
Re the undercover townhallers – all’s fair in love war and politics. I attend Omamut rallys dressed as Karl Marx and ask him why the proletariat is being repressed by the bourgeoisie ivy league egghead elite. He smiles and comments on my nice beard.
Jimmy is going to look like a stanch conservative patriot by way of comparison to the way Barky is going to bad mouth this country when his own one term is over. Bet on it!
Hmmm, because it is correct, but politically “incorrect”?
Why do liberals do this: “Firefighters’ lawsuit tests use of race in hiring, promotions”
http://www.tnj.com/firefighters-lawsuit-tests-use-of-race-in-hiring-promotions
Who was it that said something about the soft bigotry of low expectations…
What these morons forget is the audience quickly catches on. Col West plays these astroturfers like a cheap fiddle and gains applause.
Barky’s next stop is The UN, from where he will try to inflict even more damage to this country than he can from The White House. Him being such a global citizen and all.
Before I’m done, y’all will have read the book whether you want to or not… but since Wisconsin and bootleg dairy products have entered the conversation:
Why am I reminded of Brown Shirt Nazi agitators?
Ack! I put the fallen angels post in the wrong article! It was supposed to go in the wisconsin boycott article

If Obama would fold his ears back, his head would pop out of his a$$ when he farted!
I was told by my CPA a couple of days ago that Paul Ryan was a distant cousin of his. That came up during one of my rants about paying business taxes. He wouldn’t lie to me… he does my tax returns for goodness sake! Naturally, I toned down my vitriolic rhetoric concerning politicians upon disclosure of that little jewel.

The Left will tell you who they fear. Welcome to the Top 5 Paul Rayn.
In all seriousness. Sometime within the next four years a prominent conservative will be murdered by a whacked out leftist.
All the signs are there.
Heck… let’s go for a threesome!

When the liberal fascists start screaming to tax the rich, the speaker should immediately show this video. Respond to no questions, do not initiate any speech, just turn your chair and watch the video.
It won’t shut them up; you can never get the liberal knuckle-draggers to understand anything or to close their mouths, but it may get at least one person in the crowd to do something the socialists can’t stand — think.
At $90.00 list price those books must be flying-off the shelves and library wait times must be several months. This guy has as big a case for himself as John F’n Kerry (who served in the Kennedy-Johnson War) does.
