It ain't really a right, if you have to kiss his ring before you can exercise it.

A couple of people were video taping a Rules Committee meeting.

They were "abused" by Speaker of the House Ben Lujan. Apparently, he thinks they need his permission before they can make a recording of his public service; an exercise of their first amendment rights if nothing else.

If they are rights, they don't need his permission to exercise them.

Lujan
thinks it is up to him, whether first amendment rights may be exercised.

This is precisely this "party in power" arrogance and abuse that sustains the culture of corruption in the Roundhouse.

We are demanding web casting and they are resisting.

The terms of public service are the prerogative of the public,
and not of the public servants.

Whose call is it, the public's or the public servants'?

Who is responsible? Who is standing in the way?


Is it this guy?

As a taxpayer, I say "Forget the ring and kiss my a$#%%$s".
They are servants of the people, but they forget that, sitting on their thrones in Santa Fe.
