NOTE: For those who’ve tried to participate in the tele-townhalls, we know that it’s like calling in to a radio program. There’s a screener who decides which questioners will be allowed to speak (it’s rarely been anyone who doesn’t parrot GOP positions). And, any request for follow ups to questions aren’t fulfilled. Those who have gotten one-on-one time with Rep. Paulsen have found that what he says in those meetings a lot of the time aren’t what he does on the floor of the U.S. House. And, what can we say about those “Congress on Your Corner”? They were never announced to the public in more than hours in advance. By the time people found out about them, Rep. Paulsen had usually left the location.
