Representative speaks passionately in support of Government

Asked about her stance on a number of policy issues at a fund-raising dinner, a representative spoke out in support of President the American leader's policies. She further claimed that many of her fellow representatives had similar views, but were merely held back by "idiotic short-sightedness, thinking no further than the next election" instead of doing what was right for the American people. Her comments have been widely reported by the press and put several of her colleagues in hot water as they had to explain where they stood on these issues.
