"I did feel it was important for people to exercise their own judgment -- make up their own mind," he said.Despite Hoosiers voting for Hillary, despite LC voting for Hillary except for Gary & EC, and on the heels of Hillary's commanding victory in the working class state of West Virginia your "public servant" U.S. Rep. Pete Visclosky shows he doesn't much care what YOU think. No, he'd much rather side with his liberal Dem buddies in Washington.
I think this is kinda how he cooked up the massive West Shore rail link plan. It wasn't because the people he is suppose to represent was calling for it, but because his liberal pals told him that the people just don't know what's good for them. Nevermind that the rail plan is way more expensive than other options. But then maybe he knew his legislative pals had it in mind to oppose new US oil drilling and new refineries on the supposed grounds it's good for the environment?
And where does he stand on the REAL ID Act? But then who really knows why he votes as he does? All I know is it's time for him to go!
