More Of Those Dang Teabaggers

Note to Congress: the people sent you to office, and they can bring your sorry tush home

From the Austin-American Statesman:Back in Central Texas while Congress is on a month-long recess, Congressman Lloyd Doggett faced an angry reception at a town hall meeting at an Austin Randalls store yesterday…A video of the event on YouTube shows many in the crowd showed up with signs denouncing President Obama’s proposed health care plan.

Witnesses say that when Doggett was asked if he would support the plan even if he found his constituents opposed it, Doggett said he would still support the plan.

I was about to write “remember – Obama’s only got one vote”.  But after the Gregoire/Rossi election and the Franken/Coleman thing, I’m not so sure, anymore.

But all of that notwithstanding, I think it’s still considered good form to pay some attention to what your constituents want.  For now.
