“That said, the Member of Congress is insufferable. What a condescending epitome of the Government Nanny.”

DH saw a video of a Rep. telling the crowd “this is MY meeting” in a typical lib condescending, nasty way.

Well, actually, honey... no; it ISN’T YOUR MEETING. It’s OUR meeting. How dare they forget that they work for US? I honestly think new policy should be written where (1) all reps must hold a required number of meetings each year, properly advertised, in venues large enough to accommodate all those who want to attend, and (2) the PEOPLE set up the meetings, and THEY inform the rep where and when to show up. No more of this elitist “I’m too good for you” crap.

Spot on Ma’am!

If I may add an item that must always be in our control.

We should try to pass, in every State, a six-week recall notice to our reps. It should be on the ballot ASAP. It may require a petition to be signed by 10% of the voters to require special election. The recalled rep. is out and will be replaced immediately by the winner.

No Governors’ interference whatsoever would be allowed. The recalled rep. should be sued for the salary paid because he/she didn’t deliver. We can also put propositions, as in California, to prevent the politicians from raising taxes, approving bonds, gay marriage BS, etc.

Most of the voters, liberals included, would go for controlling their condescending reps. almost on the spot!

We had better start before the ballot boxes would be adorned by the ACORN insignia in a president-for-life dictatorship!

THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL.

AND

THE PEOPLE’S REP WOULD HAVE TO STAY THERE UNTIL THE LAST CONSTITUENT HAD BEEN HEARD.

If the tyrannical Kings of Saudi Arabia can do that . . .
