I agree about the GOP leadership (or lack of it). Hastert has always seemed to be going with the flow from the day he was installed. He reminds me too much of Bob Michel, the lame, wimpy, minority leader that the GOP had for years....more interested in his title than what could be accomplished.
We need lean hungry tough guys not these old "Moderates". This is war. Too many of the Washington Old boys are part of the club. They get seduced by the Washington Noise machine. Get really sick of hearing from Republican activists how we "need to take the higher ground" Well we keep taking the higher ground and NOTHING gets done so let do OUR way. They want smash mouth politics? Fine, give it to them. I want someone who is so tough that at the very mention of their name the members of the Leftist media fall down foaming at the mouth and twitch. Give me a political Patton, a Stonewall Jackson, a Bull Halsey.
We send these people there to do war on the Political Media complex, not become PART of it.
