Texas Democrat Rep. Ciro Rodriguez Totally Losing His Cool With Constituents ~ Ciro Can't Handle The Truth!
The mid-term elections are inching closer and Democrats are having to finally admit that they are in real political trouble. For those keeping score at home, let’s recap; the economy sucks, there are no new jobs, the stimulus failed, the government is bleeding money, ObamaCare is unpopular, the Feds have screwed up the gulf oil spill and we are facing potentially the biggest tax hike in history at the end of the year.
Texas Democrat Rep. Ciro Rodriguez losing his cool with a constituent, this time actually using profanity with the person who apparently didn’t look sufficiently like they were accepting what he was saying. Rodriguez stopped in mid-sentence and moved over toward the person and said “This is not Bull**it, OK. This is what I’ve been doing.” referring to what he had been saying about using robocalls in place of expensive advertising.
Earlier yesterday ( the same day as the above meeting ) , a video surfaced of ....Rodriguez losing his cool at another meeting with a woman who told him to, “tell the truth.”
Texas Democrat Ciro Rodriguez losing his cool at a town hall style meeting with a constituent. Rodriguez was using Democrat talking points to defend his vote for ObamaCare, but those attending were not having any of it. They corrected Rodriguez on the numbers he was using, and pointed out that the CBO has continued to revise numbers. When one woman attending told him he should “tell the truth,” Rodriguez lost it and lectured the woman not to tell him he is not telling the truth. He slammed his papers against a table to make his point.
The Democrats are getting very nervous. Expect to see more of this as we move into the Fall Campaign season.
Wild Thing's comment.......
Wow! Holy Guacamole! Calmly, telling a politician to tell the truth is now NOT considered civil dialogue. OK, Ciro, if you aren’t a liar, then your constituents elected a total ignoramus. But imho you’re a liar.
This should be made into a campaign commercial. Did you notice how the guy eating in the background reacted to that? Ciro Rodriguez is a LaRaza Marxist who was heavily financed by move on.org.
His Republican opponent Francisco Canseco is a very solid conservative. “Ciro Rodriguez has a history of cursing and yelling at people who disagree with him. It shows how much contempt he has for the people of this district and their concerns about the economy, exploding federal deficits, and reckless government growth.” Canseco said.
Rodriguez virtually never met with any consituents until after the primary when he found out his opponent has a hispanic surname. Now all of a sudden he’s holding office hours and town meetings all over the district.

Ciro is a zero.Anybody who looses his temper that quickly should not be in elected office. He would be better suited to be a meter maid.

Hey , he still thinks he works for Calderon, where intimidation is the rule and scare tactics work. Hopefully they vote his arse out of office.
