For sure some of them let us down, but many were ready, willing, if not able, to impose a fair and reasonable tax and to compromise to reach an acceptable piece of legislation. Hopefully those interested will determine how their representatives behaved in regard to the matter and be active electors in trying to do something about it.

Wouldn't it be easier to just switch to the Tea party and become bitter and disgruntled? :-D
