It was not just Democrats, liberals, progressives giving him hell - it was Moderate Conservatives. If it seems like a foaming at the mouth bagger click on their name - nine times out of ten it was people from KY, TX, SC, MC, Montana. Lance's district includes two of the ten wealthiest counties in America. Us was pissed . . . When I have Reoublicans agreeing that if you want to overturn a law you have to win the House, the Senate, and the WH and this is not a time for a temper tantrum - well knock me over with a feather. Who'da thunk I could find a point of agreement with Conservatives.
