The government represents the will of the representatives. The will of the representitives are the choice of the people whom keep electing them. Its a pretty freaking easy philosophy to understand.
That's how it is SUPPOSED to work. Lately it hasn't been working that way. Just look at the health care bill.
The funny thing is that we only hear about "domestic terrorists" when the Dems are in power.

Poll: Tea Party Supporters View Palin, Beck and Bush Favorably
I think one way they are trying to defuse this is by co-opting the Tea Party movement with the Republican Party and Fox News.
So long as your members continue to support Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck, I cannot take you seriously.

Define lately for me if ya would.
The people voted the reps in...the reps ran on the platforms they voted for..thats how it worked
The people flow from one minute to the next...this is not a democracy, therefore the minute to minute thinking of the unwashed masses dont matter (Else we would all have ferrari's and mansions). Its a republic...voted in on general ideals and therefore vote accordingly.
As far as your second comment...you may remember 8 panic years of people flipping out...from anthrax in mail, deranged people flying into buildings to mimic 9/11 with their prop planes, snipers on the highway, etc...it was endless fear of domestic terrorists.
