Mike Johnson is still a bit of an unknown quantity, but what I’ve seen so far is another sickeningly slick, buttoned up politician wound tighter than a cow’s ass in fly season who spouts the party line. He’s a Christian conservative who’ll have trouble admitting that human beings are more complicated than he wants them to be. And the Bible doesn’t have as much to offer in the way of guidance on certain issues as he probably thinks it does.
Johnson reminds me of Henry Gibson’s character in The Blues Brothers movie. I’m sure any resemblance is purely coincidental.
