Or Dina Titus?
Shelley Berkley?
How about John Ensign?
Dean Heller?
During the month-long congressional recess, "respresentatives" are holding Town Hall meetings across the nation to hear from their constituents. Okay, mostly to garner support from the side that already agrees with them. But constituents who don't agree are finding the Town Hall meetings (some are downright secret!) and voicing their views. Yeah, many are angry. Some are being loud. A few are even being rude or "disruptive." The news is covering it 24/7, mostly with a whole new list of nasty names for the evil, organized mobs who refuse to go quietly into the night.
So, where are all the town hall meetings in Nevada? Doesn't anyone wonder how Nevadans feel about legislation currently making it's way through congress? Why is Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's staff telling us his schedule "is a matter of national security?" Seriously. That's a quote.
I thought they were supposed to meet with us. I thought they were supposed to care where we stand on the issues. Do they already know what we think, and are determined to vote however they want to, regardless? Or maybe they just already know what is best for us because it's too complicated for us to sort out.
