“I had felt they would be pointless,” Rep. Tim Bishop (D-N.Y.) told POLITICO, referring to his recent decision to suspend the events in his Long Island district. “There is no point in meeting with my constituents and [to] listen to them and have them listen to you if what is basically an unruly mob prevents you from having an intelligent conversation.”

“There is no point in meeting with my constituents and [to] listen to them

Says a lot for the elected officials. Don't listen to the people you represent. The congresscritters know better than what we do. WTH? Over!

Oh, another thing. Don't read any bills before voting either. Just pass it without reading any part of it and don't allow your opponents to offer any other ideas.

That’s a hell of a lot of arrogance on his part. He must be feeling pretty safe in his congressional seat.
