Follow Up: Congressman Michael Burgess’ War With His Constituents

March 05, 2017 By: Juanita Jean Herownself Category: Uncategorized

I told you last week how Texas Republican Cogressvarmint Michael Burgess asked his supporters to gird up their loins and come help him fight the evil of liberals.

Well, you probably want to know how that turned out.

Some folks had some concerns about the Affordable Health Care Act.

Sally Ortega-Haynes, a human resources manager from Highland Village, said millions of Americans have access to health care because of the Affordable Care Act. She also pointed out that nearly half of Burgess’ campaign contributions in recent years come from the health insurance industry.

“How can we be assured you’re going to be working for our best interest?” she asked.

Burgess countered that he was independent of his political donors.

Yeah and his pants are independent of his belt but if he takes his belt off, his pants are hitting the floor. Burgess wants us to think that it is merely coincidence that he always votes he exact same way his major donors want him to vote.

Here’s a picture from the town hall.  He don’t look one bit happy.

 

Another person asked about the Russia connection, explaining that she didn’t believe it was fake new.

Burgess didn’t comment about the controversy facing the Trump administration, choosing instead to refer to the past.

“I was concerned about it during the previous administration as well,” he said.

(Heavy sigh.)  And that settles it.

Thanks to Rob for the heads up.
