Pratt,
I recently sent an email to our Representative Randy Neugebauer concerning the Speaker of the House election. I am sick and tired of John Boehner and I want someone who is a strong conservative leader. I want someone who will actually attempt to repeal Obamacare using whatever means necessary. I do not think he is the guy we need.
Obviously in my letter I made my opinions very clear. Personally I would have loved to have had Louis Gohmert as Speaker and requested that Mr. Neugebauer should support him. Now if I am in the minority on an opinion I don’t expect my Congressman to do what I request since he should vote and act according to the wishes of the majority of his constituents. Maybe I’m wrong on that but that’s kind of what I understand “representation” to be.
Here is the rub……….
I received a letter explaining why he supported John Boehner. Pretty much blah, blah, blah, same old politician garbage. But I have copied and emphasized the part of the letter that really upsets me:
“As you also know, I voted for Speaker Boehner. That might not have been the most popular choice in the eyes of some of my constituents, but I felt it was the right choice, given the circumstances. ”
I’m just curious Mr. Neugebauer………what was the choice of the “MAJORITY” of your constituents?
Robert, we didn’t elect him to go to Washington do what he thinks best, and then come back and tell us how we are supposed to think. He takes his constituents for granted just like every other politician up there in that DC swamp.
Maybe I’m wrong about all this, but I think it’s time to end Randy’s roundup and find us a new cowboy.

Neugebauer is neither a show horse nor a work horse, he’s a dead horse.
I TOO HAVE WRITTEN TO RANDY, SINCE THE POLITICIANS WILL NOT VOTE TERM LIMITS FOR THEMSELVES ,THE VOTERS HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF IT, VOTE HIM OUT OF OFFICE. THE TWO PARTY SYSTEM HAS LEFT ALL AMERICANS WITH LESS THAN THEY DESERVE, THE POLITICIANS THINK THEY HAVE A LIFETIME APPOINTMENT ONCE ELECTED, AND DO IN MANY CASES.
PELOSI,REED,MCCAIN,BOEHNER, AND ESPECIALLY KENNEDY DID NOT LEAVE UNTIL CARRIED OUT ON A STRETCHER. ARE THESE THE ONLY PEOPLE IN THEIR DISTRICT THAN CAN READ AND WRITE? TIME FOR VOTERS AND MOST IMPORTANTCHRISTIAN VOTERS TO GET BUSY.
