Head the NRCC, Tom Reynolds, using small children as human shield.
Reporter: Congressman, do you mind asking the children to leave the room so we can have a frank discussion of this, because it's an adult topic. It just doesn't seem appropriate to me.

Reynolds: I'll take your questions, but I'm not going to ask any of my supporters to leave.

Reporter: Who are the children, Congressman? Who are these children?

Reynolds: Pardon me?

Reporter: Who are these children?

Reynolds: Well, a number of them are from the community. There are several of the "thirtysomething" set that are here and uh I've known them and I've known their children as they were born.

Reporter: Do you think it's appropriate for them to be listening to the subject matter though?

Reynolds: Sir, I'll be happy to answer your questions, I'm still, uh…

Chimperor with the troops, Reynolds with the kids. Disgusting use of people as THINGS, not as individuals. Did those kids really NEED to be exposed to this circus? (Some of them looked like they were kindergarten age!)

3. These Are My Supporters....
They're only 14 Years Old, but thanks to the wonders of Diebold, their votes count. They are part of my constituency now.
