Webb ignores Virginians ... plans "listening tour" of Japan

~Sen. Webb, how about a "listening tour" of Virginia?~

Sen. Jim Webb (D-VA) ignored Virginians by refusing to hold townhall meetings during the summer of 2009, and he is generally unavailable to his constituents.

So now we discover he is leaving this week on a "listening tour" of Japan:

The aim of Webb's tour is to "listen carefully to the views of the current Japanese government, the leaders and citizens of Okinawa and Guam, and U.S. military leaders and personnel stationed in the Pacific region," his office said in a statement.

Sen. Webb, here's a novel idea: How about a "listening tour" of Virginia to hear the concerns of the people you represent concerning health care, stimulus bills, overreaching government, and everything else going on in Washington?
