senator cornyn
Is that backbone that I'm seeing? A Republican Senator showing some courage of conviction, some balls? I can't believe it.
Texas Senator John Cornyn is objecting to a unanimous consent vote for several Obama Cabinet nominees, including Secretary of State designate Hillary Clinton, because of concerns about the undue influence of Bill Clinton and the foreign donors to his foundation and his library.
Cornyn's spokesman gets it exactly right. “This is not an effort to scuttle or block the nomination, but a legitimate policy difference. Senator Cornyn’s goal is to create transparency on all levels of government.”
This is exactly the type of courage, strength and leadership that is going to be required everyday if we are to rebuild the Republican party.

If he continues in this bent, we may see him as our nominee in 2012!
Or we may see some trumped up charges designed to destroy him. What a man!! It is good to see someone take a stand and stand firm. I hope he continues to do so. Hillary can grab and hold his arm all she wants as long as he does not capitulate.
Cornyn's a good man, which is not surprising. He's from Texas.
Yeah it takes a lot of convicion to pull of a publicity stunt like that and hold up the business of the country for a day. It almost rivals Lincoln's issuance of the Emancipation Proclamation in courage, Cornyn is a true American hero.
Oh yeah, like the Democrats have never done that.
