This is great. A sitting U.S. Senator convenes a meeting of citizens who are interested in, and want to convey ideas on how to cut our skyrocketing debt. What does the (Democrat) Chairman of the Rules Committee of the Senate do? He shuts it down of course.
From Smitty at The Other McCain:
Chuck Schumer appears to have achieved a full metamorphosis: he may be the first Senator to have achieved the full odiousness of the British Parliament which the Founders opposed. From a Freedom Works email:
We observed all the rules. Senator Mike Lee reserved the room for us weeks in advance. Every “i” was dotted and every “t” crossed. But when Senate Democrats got word that we planned on doing their job for them … that we planned to suggest real cuts to the budget … well, that’s when they got scared and pulled the plug.
Here’s the video from Freedom Works:
