Kennedy to host town hall in Newton on Sunday

This is a terrific idea.
I’ve been very disappointed in Kennedy. He voted in favor of NSA spying on US citizens, and he’s been no friend of cannabis reform. I really miss Barney Frank, who was much more in tune with the sensibilities of his constituents.
I am thrilled with Representative Kennedy. He is a warrior for health care access, an issue of great importance to 4th District and the country.
JPK has been terrific on the healthcare issue. If you haven’t seen the videos of him in the last month, you should look them up.
Has anyone told Rep. Kennedy that Newton is a City, not a Town?
Sallee: Sort of a term of art. Let me introduce you to the wonder of Wikipedia. Kennedy is in the clear on this one.

I have been a Joe Kennedy critic. However, I have to say recently with the immigration and healthcare issues, he has stepped up big time. Thank you Joe…this is what we need from you so please keep it up!
The fact that he is out here talking to his constituents, without grandstanding, being transparent without having it be an election for him is huge. This is what every elected official should be doing at every level. Kudos.
Agree with Tom on this one. And Fig, what I said was said tongue in cheek, although I don’t blame you for reading my comment above as genuine. Sorry if I misled you.
