During a session of the House of Representatives on Wednesday, Rep. Jared Polis (D-CO) took to the floor to express his frustration and exasperation with stalled immigration reform measures by adopting an especially exasperated tone.

Some of us have considered moving to Loveland or Ft. Collins just to get away from our current alleged rep, Cory Gardner, who can't suck up to the tea party fast enough.
