| 13. Truth be told I don't want Webb and Warner from VA listening to out of staters either |

They were elected to represent the interests of Virginia not the interests of someone from California, Michigan or anywhere else.
Granted, Lieberman's office's response was pretty rude but I won't hold the general practice of shutting out non-residents against them.

| -Lieberman's staffer told me they don't listen to people outside |
