Here's a civics lesson for people who finished public school prior to 1965 and need a refresher course:
Members of Congress who serve in the House of Representatives do not actually represent all of the people who reside in their districts. They only represent the ones who voted for them in the most recent election. The same rule applies to U.S. Senators. For example, Mitch McConnell only represents Republicans who reside in Kentucky.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz of Utah was reelected to the House last year with 73.5 percent of the vote. If you happen to be one of the 75,716 voters in his shitty district who voted for Jason's opponent, you're shit outta luck if you want to voice a protest at his town hall meetings. He's made it clear that he doesn't give a screaming fuck about you or your opinion.
Added 10:55 AM Thursday: The rottenest U.S. Representative elected in Texas is the dung beetle named Louie Gohmert. He only represents the tea party Republicans in his district. And he's as cowardly as he is ugly.
