Looked to me like he had probably been getting - hounded and overreacted

Not sure that I was call it an "attack" (the website this came from seems to take a bit of a sensationalist attitude generally) but either way, this Congressman needs to chill because he overreacted and it almost sounded like he was getting paranoid with the repeated "who are you?" question, which is why I think this is the end result, and an inappropriate one, of being hounded by "media" people with their tendency to present information with a definite slant, one way or the other. I would guess there are members of both Congress and Senate from either party that are feeling a bit paranoid and edgy now. Sorry to see it happening; it was out of line. This is not an okay response from anyone.

I saw this on TV. I don't think the congressman had anything to apologize for. He was defending himself. the "students" did not identify themselves, just said they were students working on a project. As a former college instructor whose students often did surveys, I always stressed that they need to identify themselves and their college when they approach a subject and ask them to participate. I don't believe those people were students - they had an agenda and looked to me like they were attacking the congressman. For all we know, the congressman may have been receiving death threats - most of them do - and he did ask them several times who they were and they did not respond with a clear answer.
