Los Angeles Times:
House Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) declared his opposition to Hayden's appointment, siding with House Intelligence Committee Chairman Peter Hoekstra, a Republican from Michigan.
Hastert "believes a military figure should not be the head of a civilian agency," said Ron Bonjean, Hastert's spokesman. Bonjean also said that Hastert had been "informed but not consulted" about Hayden's selection.
