Thanks to JB I just read the story of an incredible man. And he’s actually a Congressman. But he’s not a politician–and that’s probably what makes him an incredible man.
His name is Tom Coburn. If you don’t know the name, you know his fight. Remember the “Bridge to Nowhere”? Coburn is on the right side of the most important domestic battle of our time. No, it is not immigration, health care, or global warming. It is the uncontrolled spending that exists solely to keep incumbents in office.
If ever I’m elected to office, I would consider it the greatest honor to be hated by my peers as he is–if ever I have peers like him.
Take the time to read this story, and know that, even now, Mr. Smith still can go to Washington.

Excellent quote.
