They are dropping like flies

Yesterday one of Obama's picks dropped out of the selection for Intelligence.

Today his pick for Chief Technology Officer had his office of the DC CTO raided by the FBI.

These appointees aren't just sitting around unemployed, ya know.
In almost every instance they take a pay cut to serve.
I don't blame them for just saying 'screw it' when they get picked apart.

Obumble is trying to build a cohesive team as best he can.

Scary to think what some of the people that have been confirmed have in their closets...

After eight years of Bush, Obama walked into the White House and all he had to pick from was these corrupt politicians. Thoes corrupt politicians were there when he got there. It's Bush's fault I tell you!

I guess we haven't got to the "change" part yet. That'll come when there are no more earmarks, there is transparentcy and there is accountability. I'm not going to hold my breath waiting.

Maybe it wasn't "hope and change". Maybe it was "hope for change"?

The Market has soared for three straight days.

Obama is saving the Country even as we speak.

At some point is this guy going to say what he means and mean what he says?

It seems Obama's Computer Chief has a checkered past.

He was a shoplifter.
