Leadership We Can Believe In

Senator Charles Grassley from Iowa espouses the kind of true leadership we can all believe in. Speaking in a radio interview, Grassley said, "The first thing that would make me feel a little bit better towards them if they’d follow the Japanese model and come before the American people and take that deep bow and say I’m sorry, and then either do one of two things — resign, or go commit suicide."

Since the vast majority of the elected workers within the U.S. Capitol are fundamentally incapable of uttering the phrase "I'm sorry", imagine the turnover that would happen if members of Congress heeded Senator Grassley's advice to the executives of AIG.

Senator, step up and be a man. Demonstrate the sort of leadership this country is so desperate for at this point in history. Should a substantial portion of your colleagues follow you in such an example you truly would embody Leadership We Can Believe In for Change We Can Believe In.
