Durbin, Burris need to show up

While other senators have taken time from their summer vacations to defend an increasingly unpopular Obama Care program, neither Senators Dick Durbin nor Roland Burris have chosen to meet with the people that elected them to their offices.

To my mind, this is due to the hubris of thinking that they are untouchable or the fear of what the people of Illinois have to say. I suggest that Senators Durbin and Burris either have the courage of their convictions or claim the mantle of cowardice that they richly deserve.
