TODAY ... Dems plan to pack Moran townhall with Howard Dean

Attention conservatives: Plan to show up at 5:00 for today's Jim Moran-Howard Dean townhall if you want to get a seat at an event that has the National Democratic Committee contacting liberals to arrive two hours early.

Democrats are going to pack Rep. Jim Moran's townhall meeting this afternoon TWO HOURS before the official start time. Democrat correspondence has urged them to be there by 5:00 even though the official notice states doors will open at 6:00 for the 7 pm meeting on health care.
Thanks to Leslie Carbone for the following:
The glossy postcard, printed and posted at taxpayer expense, arrived last week:

to Speak at Town Hall Discussion
on Health Care Reform
Hosted by Congressman Jim Moran (D-VA)

7:00PM - 9:00PM
Doors open at 6:00PM
Wanting to get a good seat (after all, nothing says reasoned policy discussion like Howard Dean and Jim Moran), I made a mental note to arrive by 6:00.

You can imagine my surprise today when a friend forwarded me an email from Brandyn Keating, Virginia State Director of Organizing for America, "a project of the Democratic National Committee," touting Mr. Moran's Town Hall meeting and announcing:
Arrival Time: 5:00 p.m.

"Please arrive as early as possible to the town hall, and make sure that the most powerful voices in this debate are those calling for real reform, not angrily clamoring for the status quo," the message pleads.
I'm glad to know that we've got them running scared, but asking party loyalists to pack a so-called town hall meeting before constituents arrive is just plain wrong.

My fellow conservatives, please arrive by 5:00, and please spread the word to others about the Democrats' trickery.

The location is:

South Lakes High School
11400 South Lakes Drive
Reston, Virginia
Pass this along and if you live in the area, be sure to show up at 5:00 to find a seat to address this health care debate.
