"Hastert is not worthy of criticism in that regard."

Hastert isn't worthy of the House Leadership. I'm sick of the be nice and don't attack, make every person like me BS. If half the people don't hate my guts I start looking at myself to see what i'm doing wrong. I don't care if anyone likes me as long as they respect me for my ability and knowledge.

Hastert has done an outstanding job as Speaker. He has accomplished miracles with a thin 6-vote majority and keeping 20+ RINOs on the reservation. Look at what the House has passed - stimulus package (twice), energy bill, trade promotion, tax cut, appropriations bills. Amazing record of leadership.
