John Boehner's rebel, Thaddeus McCotter

Rep. John Boehner, Minority Leader, is fighting the good fight to keep America a shining beacon to the world, but more importantly, a shining beacon to us, the citizens which is what will keep us strong, focused and making our country better each day. His job is made easier by his surrounding himself with absolutely outstanding individuals.

One such individual is Thaddeus McCotter, Republican representing the 11th District of Michigan. Geez, who knew there were still Republicans in Michigan. Well, outside of Mr. Cat Scratch Fever, Ted Nugent.

McCotter is my new hero. He knows who he is and from whence he came.

Thaddeus McCotter: Five Principles

1) Our liberty is from God not the government
2) Our sovereignty is in our soul not the soil
3) Our security is through strength not surrender
4) Our prosperity is from the private sector not the public sector
5) Our truths are self-evident not relative

These are five good places to start.

On the Stimulus Bill Republicans stuck to their principles and offered a plan that would create twice the jobs at half the costs.

I'm going to start following this guy like white on rice, but, as McCotter would say, I hope there are no pictures.




He also has a wicked sense of humor.
