    Suppose they gave a town hall meeting but Lee and Higgins didn't show up

    Media Advisory:

    Dave DiPietro, host of Buffalo Uncensored, 11am Thursdays, WECK 1230AM, is holding a Town Hall meeting on Wednesday, September 2nd at Wallenweins Hotel, 641 Oakwood Ave. East Aurora, N.Y.

    Town Hall meeting time is 6:00pm.

    He has invited Congressmen Chris Lee and Brian Higggins. So far, neither congressmen has accepted the invitation.

    A panel discussion will be held, featuring:
    Rus Thompson from http://TeaNewYork.com
    James Ostrowski from http://Freenewyork.org,
    Lenny Roberto from http://primarychallenge.org ,
    David DiPietro, Host Buffalo Uncensored radio show
    Allen Coniglio of ReformWNY

    DiPietro's goal in organizing this event is to start bringing average citizens into the political discussion. Hopefully other communities will hold Town Hall meetings and make all their elected officials accountable to the people once again. This will be a peaceful, civil discussion and seating is limited. For more information, or to reserve a spot, please call David DiPietro at 913-2334.

    Futility is the main message of the machine.

    It's a lie.

    The lousy machine is just a bunch of lazy, dumb guys who inherited power from their Dads.

    They can be defeated.

    I doubt it

    Scandal or death is the only thing that beats an incumbant in this area. That is no secret. Did Lee come out for the "single pay healthcare" ? Higgins is a party man and will go along with whatever the party says. Lee is new to the spot so I don't expect him to be effective. As effective as a minority party congressman can be.

    David Pietro has about as much right to expect Congressmen to his "Town Hall Meeting" as I do.

    Mr. Pietro, the ex-mayor of East Aurora is calling a Town Hall meeting at 2 PM on a Thursday afternoon. Besides retirees, children, and the unemployed, who would attend such a thing?

    And, JO's title to this thread, shows his intentions --- he wants to be able to knock Lee, and Higgins for not attending this meeting.

    therising will be holding a Town Hall Meeting next week. And, if Senator Schumer doesn't show up, I will publicly criticize him
