NOT Politically Correct!!
To whom it may concern:
I understand that you may have received some information recently about a bogus town hall telephone conference that Congressman Hoyer "supposedly participated in".
I would like to offer more insight. I received a recorded phone call from Congressman Hoyer on Sunday, 7/11 around 6:30 pm stating that the next day around the same time we would receive a phone call inviting us to join the Congressman in a town hall style phone call in which we could speak with him live and ask him questions.
Knowing I had a vet appt at that time I was disappointed b/c I thought I would miss the call. Here’s where it gets interesting. As I went to work that Monday it occurred to me - wait a second how can the Congressman supposedly have this town hall phone call when I KNOW he is scheduled to be at a reception for Governor O’Malley in Wildewood.
I’m disgusted by the Congressman’s blatant disregard for honesty and lying to the public. I took it upon myself to email Hoyer’s scheduler and asked her about the conflict in time. Her response is below. and any attempt to explain it away or say that he was in another room near the reception using a conference phone to talk with the public is pure bullshi*.
I find it very hard to believe that the Congressman would walk away from an event with the Governor to go sit in a room and answer questions from the public.
Furthermore, I know for a fact that reception started at 7pm and Congressman Hoyer was scheduled to introduce the Governor. so it was imperative that he be there.
Nevertheless, when I got home from the vet appt about 7:15 my phone rang and wouldn’t you know it was the town hall. For over 45 minutes my neighbors and I huddled around the phone listening to Hoyer rattle on and on in what was clearly a recorded response. A moderator relayed questions from callers and on 1 or 2 occasions a caller was brought on the line to ask their question, and while Hoyer may have answered it the person never got to come back and respond to them.
It wasn’t interactive at all, and clearly recorded. At the end, after a long pause he came back on the line in another recording and offered the phone # to his campaign office for anyone who hasn’t had their question answered.
My husband & neighbor both called and obviously no one was working in his office, and no one has ever returned their calls. Someone needs to expose this man for who he really is. I understand that you may have already addressed this in an editorial, but I couldn’t find it on your web page. Thank you for your time and for all that you do.
Best Regards, C. B.

I'd like to know if the B/S is true??? Hoyer is an Obama, Pelosi Lapdog so it's well within his pedigree...

Wish he would come down fr a real town hall, but after the last time, I dont expect he will do one even as close as Waldorf ever again.
