I Heart Zandra, or, Where's Gregg on Death Panels?, Pt. III

by: Dean Barker

Thu Aug 20, 2009 at 20:39:25 PM EDT

So awesome:
According to Zandra Rice Hawkins, spokesman for Granite State Progress, the band of supporters were drawn from a coalition of groups - including Planned Parenthood and the SEIU - and had been holding a rally in support of health care reform in the parking lot of the senior center since about 6:30 a.m.

"Our intent is to ask Sen. Gregg some tough policy questions... We would like to ask him why he has remained silent on the phrase 'death panels,' " Hawkins said before heading into the public forum. "We are ashamed he has not spoken honestly. When you use rhetoric to scare senior citizens and their families it's not helping the healthcare debate."

That is all.

Couldn't get it to embed, but if you go here you can catch NECN's piece on the changing face of our political scene, starring the wonderful (and indefatigable) Zandra from Granite State Progress.

Speaking of GSP, they've posted a very useful page of polling place, registration, absentee ballot, etc. info for the SD-3 special election.
