Wanted

First an admission: I pirated this little but of poetry from Sam's site. Think about it, it could be that we just need a Marine in charge...

God give us men. The time demands
Strong minds, great hearts, true faith, and willing hands;
Men whom the lust of office does not kill;
Men whom the spoils of office cannot buy;
Men who possess opinions and a will;
Men who have honor; men who will not lie;
Men who can stand before a demagogue
And dam his treacherous flatteries without winking;
Tall men, sun-crowned, who live above the fog
In public duty and in private thinking.

--Josiah Gilbert Holland (1819–1881)
