Kage Mann Not Happy w/Labrador

Kage Mann: I’m not to happy with Raul Labradors start in congress and given any misgivings, Mary and others reaasured me he would be strong on illegal immigration. Yet, he been undecided on many immigration bills up for a vote. Bubblehead says Rep. Labrador was listed as “Not Voting” on the Afghanistan Withdrawal Resolution. Doesn’t he have a spine? He can’t have it both ways, he has to live up to his promises or he’ll be a one term congressman. Remember, Bill Sali? Wasn’t he a one term congressman?

  • From Phil Hardy, regional director/press secretary for Congressman Labrador, who said there have been no votes on the illegal immigration issue on the floor. And Labrador "has missed the last two days of voting because his young son had an appendicitis and he rushed room to help Becca tend to him and their other small children."

Question: Are you happy with U.S. Rep. Raul Labrador's performance at the beginning of his congressional career?
