 Surprise, Surprise!  U.S. President-elect Barack Obama on Monday has chosen his national security team.  The big names which are not unexpected are former rival Hillary Clinton as secretary of state.  He is also asking Defense Secretary Robert Gates to stay on in that position.

 

Clinton and Obama clashed in one of the most fierce battles in Democratic Presidential primary history.  Clinton has been First Lady and New York US Senator.

Yes, please ask Kathleen why the overlapping veneer applied to the fresco beneath on the ceiling of the Memorial Hall in Baton Rouge........... I always feel there is circumstance, happenstance, and the what it is of things..... Ohhhh, and upcomming state budgets for '09 - '10? And employment, and coastal restoration/protection, and on and on and on....... I understand she taught 'business' in highschool..... I would wonder what her outlook on business in Louisiana is, and why she would participate in quashing a viable Louisiana export? You know what I am talking about Stevo-O, and I wouldn't mind hearing your explanation on that cryptic question either... Where is the COMMON sense???

It is interesting how everything is intermingled, intertwined... Take the following for instance: Following the bailout money: Where $8.5 trillion is going - - - - - So Folks, now it is 8.5 trillion........ Sort of like everyone focusing on those bad - bad - bad CEO's instead of looking at what is really happening.... Right now we have the Ford CEO vowing to work for a buck.... Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!!!!!!!! I am sure he can do it, and I am sure he means what he is saying, but is is salary really the reason for Fords woes or any other auto maker’s woes.... Speaking of woes..... We started off with a 750 million bailout? went to 850 million overnight, with a trillion on the table and 2 being murmured.... I knew when 750 billion was mentioned, it would end up as 2.5 trillion (Yeah, like I needed 'Buzz' to put that little bee in my ear, ha!) and I wouldn't have dreamed it would be more like 8.5 trillion..... We have lost our everlovin' collective minds folks...... And I ask again.... , “brick by brick, stone by stone, what would be the tool to reinstate a throne?????” Change? Change indeed….. We are looking at some serious maneuverings there folks….. Consider the obvious, and what is hidden underneath a newly painted veneer…… No matter how you stack it, bull shit is bullshit…. Whether it comes in a bag, or comes in a box….

In the late 1780’s the domestic duties assigned to the United States Secretary of State were; Receipt, publication, distribution, and preservation of laws of the United States, custody of the Great Seal of the United States, authentication of copies and preparation of commissions of executive branch appointments, and finally custody of the books, papers, and records of the Continental Congress including the Constitution itself and the Declaration of Independence. In the presidential line of succession the Secretary of State is the highest-ranking member of the Cabinet, and fourth overall. The Secretary of State is also the first cabinet member in the order of precedence, and there is a space between the Secretary of State and other cabinet members where the order allows room for FORMER presidents AND first ladies, and widows of U.S. presidents. The position is WIDELY regarded as the senior most of the cabinet…………………. So, brick by brick, stone by stone, what would be the tool to reinstate a throne????? News flash? - - - - - Court dissolves Thai government for election fraud - - - Dec 2, 2008 - 02:58 AM US/Eastern - - - Associated Press - - - - BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) - The Constitutional Court dissolved Thailand's top three ruling parties for electoral fraud Tuesday and temporarily barred the prime minister from politics, bringing down a government that faced months of strident protests seeking its ouster. - - - - - - - CAN IT ALL REALLY BE THIS SIMPLE???????

I am hoping that Barak Obama marches to his own drum and will not simply be a rubber stamp for the failed policies of the Democratic Party's past (such as the Great Society which created more people living in poverty rather than "eliminate poverty"; the Community Reinvestment Act; etc.). I am uncertain about his picking Hillary as Sec of State. My gut reaction is "not another Clinton" - but perhaps it will not really matter. However as the Secretary of State is fourth in line to succeed the Presidency, Obama would be wise to not be in the same place as Biden and Pelosi at the same time.

Smart move for Hillary, hard to believe he picker her though. Now she can sit back be statemanlike and if Obama fails she will be ready in 2012. As a senator she would be between a rock and a hard place. Either supporting his policies that may or may not work or fighting him and then she will seem like a sorry loser.

I'm just at a loss to understand why Obama wants so badly to have "The Clintons" around him. He is going to have to keep looking over his shoulder. I guess he needed them to keep all of the other Clinton retreads that he's appointed in line. I thought his big thing was CHANGE???? Next it will be Monica for White House Intern.

And her husband Bill promises he won't utilize her position to line his pockets further. Righ . . . this from the guy who swore to the nation that he wasn't having sex with Moncia.
