Got a call from "Private Number" that was Austin Scott's telephone town hall today.
A woman "Victoria" from Hahira called to as about 2nd amendment and GMOs. Scott went on at length about 2nd A. For GMOs he alleged "there's a movement out there" to ban all genetically modified crops. The caller clarified she was concerned that GM corn seed couldn't be reused. Scott stumbled and stuttered and clearly didn't have a canned answer. Eventually he said "We're going on to the next question".
Several times he said he was for jobs and against fraud, abuse, and wasteful subsidies. I wonder which bill he's cosponsored to end the $70+ billion a year in fossil fuel subisidies? http://1bog.org/... He went on again and again about cutting the military claiming it puts national security at risk. How about promoting solar and wind for national security through energy independence, like DoD wants?
These are points an opponent of Scott next year could use to win.
