Is Eric Massa the Worst Congressman Ever?

Geez, I thought Dan Maffei was bad.

I wonder if Keith Olbermann will give Massa the Worst Person award.

Here is Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY) telling the nut roots that he’ll vote against the interests of his “right wing” district. I’d sure like to see him say this to the faces of his constituents. I’d go on but I’m too tempted to use offensive language.

As reported by the Washington Times:

Representative Eric Massa (D- NY) addressed an intimate group of Netroots activists during their annual Netroots Nation gathering in Pittsburgh this weekend. Mr. Massa reiterated his support for a single payer health care bill. He discussed the risks he takes for wanting to support such a measure in his “right wing Republican district.”

According to Swing State Project, Mr. Massa won his 2008 race by two percentage points. The district’s voting pattern index (PVI) is a Republican +5 seat.   The National Republican Congressional Committee has the upstate New York congressman in their sights for 2010 along with 69 other House Democrats as reported by Politico.   The transcript is below, and check out the corresponding video above.

    I dunno…

    Eliot Engel (district 17) is terrible. He’s voted for every single massive piece of legislation without reading (Patriot Act, Iraq war, bailouts, stimulus, Comm. Fut. Modernization Act, Food “Safety” Enhancement Act, and so on.

    Of course he does have 80% of the vote, so he can do what he wants (ignoring phone calls and letters and emails, evading taxes by declaring his primary residence in MD, etc.), but I’m sure he violates his oath of office at least as often as this one. Two slime balls in a pod!

    I don’t know if he’s the worst Congressman ever, but I do know this: I had the misfortune of serving under then-Lieutenant Commander Massa. And for damn sure he was one of the worst Naval officers ever!
