So as part of Senator Burr's whitewashing of his record, his latest remark in the Asheville Citizen Times takes it to a new level, you could even call it a bald faced lie. A recent letter to the editor slammed Senator Burr for blocking unemployment benefits, and this week Senator Burr responded by calling the writer ‘uninformed’ about his stance on the issue:

SENATOR BURR, Asheville Citizen Times Letter to the Editor: "He is uninformed as to my support for extending unemployment benefits…I think everyone agrees that we should extend unemployment benefits.”

Senator Burr wants us to think he’s supported the unemployment extension all along, but like most statements of his, again nothing could be farther from the truth.

It is my understanding that at 4:00pm today (Friday) the NC Tea Party Revolution is holding a protest at
Rep. Brad Miller's Office on St. Mary's St.

If you have time, or can make time, please consider counter protesting in civil, quiet opposition. The more civil, respectful and legitimate opposition that shows, the more legitimate our side will be.

My family and I will be there!
