“You mean that pork barrel spending guy in the house that’s ranked #411 out of 435 for congressional attendance?”
Oh wow, I didn’t know that about Hunters attendance, thats bad, I mean we on the right tore into John Kerry and John Edwards about their attendance, we can’t have a guy on our side with bad attendance this time around. And they want to say that Fred is lazy?
I didn't know that, either. That's shameful. The voters hired him to do a job, he ought to do it.
I don’t know exactly what the attendance ranking measured. However, the fact that Rep. Hunter was a committee chairman and had many duties on his committee may well have caused him to miss many house votes. However, if you look at all the legislation that he has sponsored and the times that he has fought the good fight for conservative issues, it is very clear that he is a hardworking guy. He simply may have found better ways to work for his constituents than attending every vote on naming post offices in Tallahassie or Calamazoo.
