Have any of the people posting ever sat across the table and talked to the Congressman representing your district? I have. It was Ron Paul.
I may not agree with him on all his positions but as a Congressman representing our district he came by and met with those in the district in person. More than once. And drove the car himself.
When was the last time your representative talked to you DIRECTLY across the table at a restaurant.

I’ll start counting.
Goodnight.

Out in CA, you can't get the corrupt political frauds to answer their phones, and when they do, their answered by some over paid arrogant staff member who belongs to some bloated government union run by government mobsters.

Well, that was a nice non-sequitur, thanks.

3 times I have had to suffer MY rep. at my table. Even though he is very liberal I guess by your criteria my rep.(Earl Blumenauer)is a great guy because he drove himself to the restaurant to chat it up with people. I hope you make lots of money from that bridge you bought.

My Congressmen is Debbie Wassermann-Schultz (by about 120 yards). Before that, it was Jim Moran (by probably less than 2-300 yards). If either one sat down at my table, I would projectile vomit long before they could utter a word. Then, I'd probably carve my eyes out with the soup spoon, because what has been seen, may not be unseen.

I'm glad you enjoyed your chat with Ron. Some of us aren't as lucky in the jackpot of Congressional districting.

Talking with constituants, meeting with them at a restaurant, having town hall meetings etc. etc...makes one an acceptable congressman, doesn't make him/her right...just a good representative of your district. I am in northern Indiana...used to have Chris Chocola(R)....now have Donnely(D)....lots of contact with his area residents...but votes for Obama as often as possible....and the only portion of his district that is Democrat is his home area of South Bend....he and they are pathetic
