Another good time had by all

Apparently the Athens-Clarke County version of Rep. Paul Broun's town hall was pretty interesting with the congressman refusing to answer a question from Ryan Lewis and instead accusing the latter of unfairly editing a video of an exchange between the two earlier this month in Oconee County.

At that town hall meeting, Broun walked away from Lewis after being asked a question about the expansion of health care. Lewis, of course, had brought with him a bag of his kidney stones which added another layer of absurdity to the entire exchange.

Leaving aside that ridiculous exchange, I'm partially creeped out by not only Broun planting an anti-British-health-care person in the crowd, but also the fact that his wife, Nicki, responded to folks objecting to the person cutting in line by blowing kisses their way.

Seriously, it's like Jim and Tammy Faye Baker are our congressional representatives.
