CNN piece tonight on Joel Hefley

Goes into how Hefley and other Republicans on the House Ethics Committee were forced off after rebuking Tom Delay. And Denny Hastert, who came into Congress with Hefley and was a friend, led the charge to have Hefley ostracized.

I hate that fat man Hastert. He tries to come across as the jovial reasonable mild-mannered fat Midwesterner. But really he is someone that puts himself and the GOP in front of this country, and he has to go.

I'm not a GOP hater. I've voted GOP something like 90%. But I'm so sick of how the Republicans have decided to run the federal govt. that honestly I would like to see a change. It would empower GOP reformists and bring down the corrupt head that currently rules.
