When I went to see Rep. McClintock the other day, having preconceived notions on what I would find and was pleasantly surprised. I did not find a Republican "tool" but rather an articulate individual, concerned for his country and trying to make a difference. FYI, he gave Pres. Clinton credit for the only positive budget ( last 4 years) out of the previous 40 years. He then went on to slam the spending of Pres. Bush. As you can imagine, he is not happy with President Obama's spending direction.
He's one of the most independent minded and well-spoken politicians out there today.
During the primary, some critics complained that he wasn't good at making friends in the GOP. They meant it as a criticism, but to me it just means he doesn't let the party establishment control him.
He sticks to his conservative convictions, with or without the GOP. I'm sure his independence hurts his standing with party leaders, luckily he doesn't need much funding.
What a waste of the House's time! Ed Shultz was not serious.

Agreed - he's anything but a tool.
