Do you remember when Ron Paul supporters chased Sean Hannity down the street in January 2008 trying to get him to interview them? How was that in your opinion, was it a good way to approach the opposition? I doubt Rs liked it at all.
But it's ok for fox news channel to harass Grayson tho right?
You're comparing Ron Paul supporters chasing down talking head Sean Hannity to Fox News trying to get answers from Congressman Alan Grayson? That's not even apples and oranges, it's more like asparagus and marbles.
Did you watch/read what I linked? How was Griff Jenkins 'harassing' Grayson? He was asking questions and Grayson refused to answer, just giving a 'contact my office for an appointment' b.s. Jenkins DID contact his office - repeatedly. Grayson never returned a single call or email. Conclusion? Grayson -- who works for us and is answerable to us - ducked and dodged. Apparently you're ok with that.
He doesn't work for you unless you live in his district. You aren't his constituency. Same with senators, they work for the people of their state. As a body, they come together but individually, you don't have any say unless he is your representative.
That's the thing about you Rs. You think that even though you lost your elections, you still get to tell Democrats what to do and say. You don't. When you win something come back and we'll try this again.
Did you think about your post before you wrote it? Congresspersons WORK (at least their supposed to) for ALL of us. They REPRESENT their district. Thinking like yours leads to pork barrel politics. Can I quote your last paragraph in December of 2010? If it happens, do you want us to say, you don't get to tell us what to do and say? I would think looking for the best answers to be a better choice.
Grayson was looking for national attention. Well, he got it.
