Paul Broun Comes Home to Roost

WooHoo! Local wacko comes home for a town hall meeting: Thursday 6pm at the Holiday Inn (197 W Broad St., Athens). The Athens Banner-Herald says to "stay respectful..." If you want any respectful or disrespectful ammo for the meeting, just go to http://politicalcorrection.org/
and click on the "Paul Broun" tag or pull-down filter option. (Yes, he has his own!)
Examples: Broun claims a Muslim-American advocacy group is planting spies ("interns") in Congressional offices; Broun warns the "socialistic elite" might plan to "declare martial law" and "establish an authoritarian government"; Broun claims the public option part of the proposed health care reform "is gonna kill people."

This is the same Paul Broun who made national headlines last year for comparing Obama to Hitler.

Fortunately, I can make the claim that Broun did not carry my part of his congressional district - his challenger Bobby Saxon won nearly twice as many votes as Broun in Athens-Clarke county in November 2008.

Crazy? Yes, but not my kind of crazy.

Rep. Paul Broun not sure if Obama is citizen - Andy Barr - POLITICO.com

What my local Wingnut member of Congress is up to:

Rep. Paul Broun (R-Ga.) said Thursday that he does not know if President Barack Obama is either a citizen or a Christian.
Broun made the claim during an interview with Sirius XM host Pete Dominick, which was first flagged by the liberal blog Think Progress.
