@cnn: When asked about Rep. Tom Kean's three-month absence from congress, Speaker Mike Johnson said that he knew the reason for it but told reporters they'd have to wait to hear from Kean himself when he returns to office.

So he needs to step down and resign if he’s unable to perform his duties as an elected representative.

Sure he has a right to his privacy but leaving your constituents unrepresented for three months is out of control. He needs to step down

No one has seen him in three months. He’s got paid for those three months. This is ridiculous.

I mean, you become a public figure, elected. What could possibly requires or permit this silence? Nothing.

Sadie cole :

The fact that he knows but won't say anything just makes the mystery even bigger
