"Nothing so strongly impels a man to regard the interest of his constituents, as the certainty of returning to the general mass of the people, from whence he was taken, where he must participate in their burdens. "
George Mason, speech in the Virginia Ratifying Convention, June 14, 1778
Thought #1: To my representatives of BOTH houses of Congress - who have REFUSED to hold town hall meetings or meet with their constituents: I remind you -- there are still four days remaining until you must return to Washington D.C.
Thought #2: Term limits -- to remind those representatives of their interests, duties, and that they are not exempt from the results of their votes.
