Massa is another Dem.liberal thats thinks he is above the law and doesn't care what the people that voted him into office want.Just look at what is going on in Washington with Obama and his gang of thugs.All of them should be voted out of office no matter what party they belong to.Maybe than they will get the hint that they work for US not for themselves.

[Constituent]

Slaughter saying she won't hold public meetings to listen to and learn of her constituents concerns since she "knows what they want"... well, she must either be clairvoyant or not give a hoot because that is not what I am hearing in the district. MANY feel their voice is unheard and their representative could care less. At least Massa forgoes that denigration and simply gets right to saying he doesn't even care what the folks who elected him want. And therein lies the problem. Elected representatives of any party who totally blow off their constituents to do what they themselves may personally want makes a mockery of the system our Founding Fathers established. The sense of entitlement of these people is unbelievable. Neither of these elected officials deserve the benefits of office if they don't put their constituents voice ahead of their own. They certainly have not earned my re-election vote.
