Never heard of Pete Sessions. Only heard of Mitch Daniels because his name is thrown around as a presidential candidate.

Also, there is one name noticeably missing....

Cornyn? Is the Washington Post owned by the same assclowns who own Texas Monthly?

The list is certainly missing a name...

Pete Sessions is the Chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee

And missing it will remain, right up until we force them to add it. Roll on 2011! :cool:

I beg to differ with this list...listen to this video from 1:05 to the end...

No, I'm pretty sure he cut the hair of the guy who discovered it.

Washington Post (along with their buddies in MSM: aka Me Suck & drink Man juice 24/7 whores) is just one of many propaganda outlets of the establishment.
They will do everything they can to stop Ron Paul in 2012.
Mark my words.

Barbour is the governor of Mississippi. He's been going around giving speeches like he's preparing a run for President -- and his appearance at the top of this list, being a joke just based on his speech trail, shows that he's being groomed for the run.

I was positive Haley Barbour was a woman before reading these posts.

What can you expect from the Washington Post? If they're going to give love to members of the Republican Party they'll do it because they'll get love back from neoconservative hacks.

Well that's a pretty obvious attempt to push the 2012 GOP candidates the establishment wants to see. Of course Dr. Paul is ignored and excluded....some things never change.

How many of them originated legislation that has passed in some form in the past year even under a democrat regime?

I gag at that list. I had never even heard of Haley Barbour before CPAC, but whatever.

They are all neocons...WOW. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a lot of work to do. By this time next year, Ron Paul could be on the top of that list. He could be on the cover of Time Magazine. He could be the winner of the Ames Straw poll. He could have 50 million dollars in his account.

Get hyped friends!

He was big during Katrina. If it wasn't for the dams busting MS would've had a lot more damage than NOLA.

Not that I like Glenn Beck, but I am surprised he is not on the list. Or any of the other conservative talk show heads.
