Republican Gov. Tom Corbett will tomorrow address the Greater Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce at the Academy of Natural Sciences. People will, of course, be protesting.

"The last few times the Governor visited Philadelphia, we gave him a great un-welcome, and now it’s time to do it again," according to the Facebook invite

They will likely protest Corbett's deep cuts to education and services for the poor, prison construction, voter ID, and unregulated and lightly-taxed natural gas drilling. Among other causes.
 
6 ABC's Matt O’Donnell will ask the governor questions that Chamber members submitted online before hand, "everything from transportation to pension reform to welfare budget," according to the Chamber's Liz Ferry.
