And I call and tell them so. Do it every day of the week. Some people smoke, I pick up my phone and someone gets a polite but angry earful. You are not alone. Every time I see asshat I punch him, figuratively. I have gardening to soothe me.
There is a difference between dems and our reps who are dem. We already know that they will roll over if we don't keep after some of them. So to all of you giving the poster a hard time for denigrating the response of our reps, not the people here, I think there is a valid concern when all of this shit is being exposed and I do not hear a single peep from my rep.
Every single rep should be saying something. I realize some are, some are busy, but too many are silent. We are talking about treason at the highest level. When does a five alarm fire warrant a five alarm response?
