Thank you for cutting through the 50 minutes of BS and highlighting the most indicative exchange of the evening. <br /><br /><br />This man is clearly NOT a leader. He seeks the opinions of colleagues and votes they way they tell him to vote. Never mind that his voting record for the last year has totally angered those of us in his district. <br /><br />"The Speaker said he would not allow any amendments to that bill, so I didn't offer any amendments." Are you kidding me????<br /><br />He may need to memorize one of Margaret Thatcher's best quotes. "If you set out to be liked, you would be willing to compromise on anything at any time. And you would get nothing done." Culberson keeps compromising (selling us out) without realizing that each capitulation makes us like him even less.

It sounds like you did a great job getting his attention. As far as I can tell, what Mr. Culberson is best at is wrapping his poor voting record in position statements that hit all the right notes in an attempt to make you believe he is on our side. He is not. Every time I send the Congressman a note, in addition to whatever topical point is at hand, I ask him when he is going to cut the $2 Trillion that needs to be cut in the budget. Somehow he never actually addresses that particular concern.<br /><br />By the way, the real reason I don't go to Culberson townhalls is that he ALWAYS holds them in the gun free victim zones otherwise known as public schools. Perhaps he and his staff feel safer there. I feel excluded. Go out to a public place in Houston in the evening unarmed? That's just not happening.<br /><br />Cheers.<br />UK Houstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968134446035435081noreply@blogger.com
