Who is Rep. Johnson? What is he famous for? Is he a liberty guy?

I've heard of him before but, to be honest.... haven't watched him much: http://timjohnson.house.gov/

He's friendly with Dennis but a Dove GOPer (allegedly). I've not looked at his voting record.

He's good but he's getting screwed over with redistricting (the whole Illinois GOP is).

I watched that segment, and Paul's name came up generically. I hope there is a tube of it soon so everybody else can tune in. Very good piece.

On a side note, Paul's name came up generically today on CNBC by Simon Hobbs while they were talking future economic strategy..

He's catchin' on...

Haha just mentioned him in another thread. Tim Johnson delivered an excellent speech on the house floor when people were voting on the libya amendment

LOL after awhile the camera guy started panning back n forth to follow him.

Rep. Johnson seems like a really good guy and all, but he needs to cut back on the caffeine intake or whatever it is. He sways back and forth like a pendulum when he's on camera and it's really distracting. :confused:

Style over substance. I'm fine with a fidgety guy with principle. ;)

Surprised on the mentions of Robert Taft. Man, if the GOP went back to Robert Taft, I wouldn't feel like a dirty hobo being a member of the Party. Watch the Kristols, Krauthammers, and Neo-Cons go into the dustbin of history! Would be nice. :D

I liked what he was saying but it was making me dizzy watching him.
