U.S. Rep. David Scott to face additional health care fanatics

Free event sponsored by AARP requires RSVP, acronyms prohibited

U.S. Rep. David Scott, D-Jonesboro, sparked national headlines when he lit into a health care reform opponent during a Douglasville town hall meeting. Since then, Scott’s held additional forums about the controversial proposal. On Monday, August 28, he’ll speak at another event in Austell sponsored by the AARP.

If you’re planning on just dropping by the free event, you might be disappointed. In order to keep the forum orderly, the AARP asks you to RSVP if you plan to attend. There’ll be refreshments and snacks to help foamy-mouth protesters recharge after yelling about socialism. Guns will probably not be allowed.

To RSVP, call 1-877-926-8300 or send the organization an email. The event will be held from 10 a.m. to noon at the Austell Community Center at 2625 Joe Jerkins Blvd., Austell, GA 30106. Doors open at 9 a.m.
