A towering sense of entitlement and pomposity

I recommend watching this clip right to the end. Remember what Representative Scott says about meeting up with him to discuss health care issues in the public forum, as opposed to what he actually does. Note also his repetition of the absurd characterisation of 'hijacking the public forum'. One decent, penetrative question, and you are hijacking a public forum apparently. For many of the current set of Senators and Congressmen, democracy has no substantive meaning whatsoever.

There's that, and also the Representatives assumption that his questioner is a Republican, because he disagrees with the Representative. Absolutely pathetic.
