These two politicians should lose their seats!
They were voted in to represent their constituents, attending is THEIR JOB. They are delinquent...
Rep. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) will not be attending the president's State of the Union address.
According to his office, the congressman plans to watch the speech with his brother, who is stationed in Alexandria, Va.
Attendance has become noteworthy after the announcement Monday from Rep. Doug Lamborn (R-Colo.) that he would be skipping the event out of protest to President Barack Obama's agenda.
According to a statement from Lamborn's office: "Congressman Lamborn is doing this to send a clear message that he does not support the policies of Barack Obama, that they have hurt our country."

Republican lawmaker Doug Lamborn of Colorado to skip State of the Union
For some members, yes. But others won’t be attending the president’s annual address to Congress at all.
Denver’s Fox 31 reported Monday that Rep. Doug Lamborn, a three-term Republican congressman from Colorado, will not attend the State of the Union.
The station reported that, according to Lamborn’s office, the congressman “does not support the policies of Barack Obama,” including the president’s recent recess appointments and his administration’s rejection of the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline.
Lamborn last made headlines in August, when he compared the idea of working together with Obama to “touching a tar baby.”
