Hello Sister Chill, nice to meet you!
John Bolton would make the libs heads explode - plus, he’d be an awesome chairman!
Thaddeus McCotter - US Rep from Michigan. Good guy! Here’s more on him: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thad_McCotter
The Senate leadership needs to go. The quartet I listed would be an awesome leadership team.
McCotter looks like a solid guy and would be a lot of fun at a party.:) His last electoral take was a little tenuous (51%), but his stand on Paulson’s bailout was provident so he should easily sail through next November, especially given the declining popularity of rats. I have to say, though, I’m surprised he got elected in this day and age. He’s only slightly more attractive than Alan Colmes, who is one of the ugliest people I’ve ever seen on TV, if not the ugliest. Ah well, it doesn’t seem to slow either of them down, so I guess it’s no big deal. :) And maybe that photo on the Wiki profile doesn’t do him justice. All in all, he seems like a cool dude. BTW, if you know, did he cave to the local fascists’ pressure on Iraq? The article doesn’t say, unless I missed it.
I agree with you about the Senate “quartet”, and there may be a couple more worthy of high (not top) leadership. I sense the most strength from DeMint, but Coburn would be a good leader for these times. OTOH, Inhofe may well be the toughest, but he’s got the personality of a dead carp. I think he’d be more useful quietly busting chops behind the scenes. Coburn is the least likely to seem like a good ol’ boy, while Sessions is the most likely to come off that way. Notice they’re all southerners? It sure would be nice if we could find a few somebodies in other parts of the country with a spine, smarts and the tongue of a pit viper. Hey! I know! How about running Sarah Palin for the Senate?
