Those heated Tea Party rallies? The anger’s still out there – and it’s also on YouTube.
When Rep. Ciro Rodriguez, a Democrat, met with constituents in Texas over the weekend he sort of, well, lost his cool. When a woman accused him of lying about the cost of health care, Rodriquez snaps at the woman and slaps a table with rolled up papers in his hand.
Unfortunately for him, the woman also happened to be filming the incident and Rodriquez’s unbecoming behavior is now going viral. Gotta love the Internet!

Later, once Rodriquez seemed to remember that he’s a politician and that snapping at voters isn’t exactly the best way to win favor, he issued an apology statement. (via the Dallas Morning News)
