Sensenbrenner spars with constituents

at town meeting in Pewaukee; with audio

Rep. F. Jim Sensenbrenner, who's been all over the national news in recent weeks, both for his extreme views and for his extremely offensive behavior, brought his act home to Pewaukee Sunday night.

Sensenbrenner's town hall meeting drew some constituents with questions, and at least one blogger, but apparently no one from the news media. (If any of this has been reported, I haven't seen it.)

Here's the report, via DailyKos.com The audio clips are of poor quality, although #2 is better.

Sensenbrenner Yells At Constituents (With Audio!)

Tonight I hauled all the way over the remote outskirts of Congressman Sensenbrenner's district (Pewaukee, WI) for a Q & A session. It took me 50 minutes to get there through a construction zone on a Sunday night (Which I'm sure was perfectly intentional on his part). And, not surprisingly, there were only 15 people there due to the time and location.

But it was all worth it, because I got to yell, "POINT OF ORDER!" during a lively debate on Gavel-Gate. (Audio below)

Sensenbrenner was unapologetic for his premature gaveling of the June 13th Patriot Act hearing. In fact, he was snippety for almost the entire evening.
