Skelton Shuns Town Halls, Holds “Evening With Ike” Teleconferences Instead

October 13th, 2009 by mopns · No Comments

This is pathetic! Skelton shamelessly avoids his constituents all summer, and now he plans to reward his subjects with an “evening with Ike” this coming Thursday. Does Congressman Skelton plan to meet his constituents at his district office or at a high school gymnasium? No, he’s having a 60 minute “large-scale conference call.”

“Since coming to Congress, I have worked hard at staying in touch with the people I represent. I am home frequently and have traveled extensively throughout the Fourth District this year. In August, I made 33 public appearances in 14 counties during which I gained first-hand information about a variety of federal issues that are important to rural Missourians.

“I look forward to my conversation with Fourth District residents. The advice I get from them always serves me well.”

We hope Skelton doesn’t cuss out a constituent who disagrees with him!

    Sounds like Ike is HIDING from us! He knows we’re NOT happy with the way he does things and handles issues so he’s HIDING from us. Then claims that those he’s talked to like the job he’s doing. Yeah, because he only talks to those he knows agrees with him! What about the majority of us??? Every time I try to contact him I get a lousy form letter stating that he hears me and will keep my comments in mind. Whatever…
