..‘Styrofoam Dan’ Lungren Could Pay a Price for Killing Capitol Compostable Program
Source: Pensito Review

One of California's Most Disliked Pols, He Nearly Lost Reelection in GOP Wave Last Year, Winning with Just 50.6% of Vote

It has only been about three months since Republicans took control of the House and there are already signs that voter remorse is setting in.

The reason for this is clear. Republicans won the House by promising to focus on fixing the economy and produce “jobs, jobs, jobs.” Not only have they broken those promises — they haven’t even bothered to schedule a hearing on employment — they passed $61 billion in budget cuts that conservative economic experts predict would kill about 1 million jobs and stall or reverse recovery from the Bush recession.

Otherwise, all the GOP has done is waste time on the taxpayers’ dime with a series of gimmicks. They read the Constitution out loud (and bungled even that). They voted to repeal of health-care reform even though they knew it had no chance of becoming law and have yet to utter a peep about the replacement bill they promised. And they passed a resolution to encourage placing “In God We Trust” signs on all 9,000 federal buildings.

1. They are in no position to create jobs. They are the party of "no."

2. I dispise him, he was my rep several years ago
He was so disliked that he was redistricted out of here. I remember going to one of his townhall meetings. Lungren was so rude totally ignoring anyone's opinion he didn't agree with. He wouldn't look at them, wouldn't respond to them, kept looking at his watch and drinking water. A total asshole! x(
