Republican Rep. Deborah Pryce (OH-15) didn't care enough about her constituents to show up on the floor of the House of Representatives on Monday so that she could vote. Yes, folks, Deborah Pryce decided that she'd rather spend another day at home instead of working for us. Pryce, according to the Washington Post, has missed 75 votes, most of those missed votes were on Mondays.
Pryce's staff has tried to defend her by saying that the Monday votes weren't that important. However, it doesn't matter what Pryce and her staff think about the bills and resolutions that are up for votes on Mondays. The real truth is that Pryce no longer cares what we, her constituents, think. We can assume that since Pryce will not run for re-election that these missed votes will increase because she no longer gives a (fill in your own 4-letter word) what we think. She doesn't care about the continuing American death toll in Iraq, because she is too busy playing at home. She doesn't care that military veterans needing medical care face long months of waiting for medical help and a majority must travel daily to Dayton for special therapy. Why? I don't know why a majority of the wounded vets who need outpatient care for must travel to Dayton for daily treatment/therapy. If you want to find out yourself why this is happening, you can call Pryce's office in DC. Just don't call on a Monday.
