That's interesting. 48-2 I guess I'll never understand politics and politicians. How is one who has demonstrated (and basically acknowledged) that they make up stories and repeatedly lie to the media and voters, then, when caught, arrogantly shrug it off, get appointed to important positions like Secretary of State? And to top it off, she's considered to be an outstanding, world class leader by many. No wonder this country is going down the tubes. Honesty and integrity are no longer qualification requirements for much of anything. Unreal. Eisboch And yet, she's respected by congress, and according to what I've read, has a good relationship with the Pentagon, which could be a good thing considering what we're involved with lately. Says a lot about congress huh? Liars and cheats welcome. Eisboch |

You don't really think those 2500 or so carefully picked folders sat quietly on the floor of her office for two years do you? =================== Tell me why she was approved so easily by congress yesterday. Because ethics and integrity are a thing of the past in the Senate and the House. Yesterday gave an indication that perhaps there is a little left in the new President. I hope his appointees don't let him down. But, if he tries to carry the ethics bit too far, Pelosi and Reid will shut him down quickly. -- John H * He who dies with the most toys is nonetheless DEAD* |

That's not good, although it's not surprising for certain types of people. |

That's not good, although it's not surprising for certain types of people. My comments are not anti-Obama. I sincerely wish him to succeed. But, in order to avoid mistakes of the past, I think it's important to hold people to their promises and their proclamations of principles. To start off a new administration by glossing over some of the questions related to key appointees is taking the first baby step towards an acceptance and tolerance of much more. We should have learned our lessons from the past administration and insist that the new one doesn't fall off the track. Eisboch |

Says a lot about congress huh? Liars and cheats welcome. Eisboch 1) They've been liars, cheats and idiots at least since Mark Twain's time, when he said "Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself." 2) A fixed percentage of the voting population is comprised of people who can't think and believe reading is a sign of demonic possession or elitism. This will never change, so we will never have as many brilliant people in congress as we'd like. Idiot voters find them threatening. We can hope for more people like Daniel Patrick Moynihan, but it's unrealistic to whine when we don't find them. Even Newt Gingrich, who's a hypocritical piece of ****, is a pretty smart guy and has some good things to say about government. 3) Got three names you'd would've liked to see offered for Secretary of State? How about the Defense Department, in case Gates doesn't stick around? |

I am hardly qualified to know or suggest. However, my instinct would be to look beyond current office holding politicians with baggage and favors owed. How was Henry Kissinger "discovered"? He didn't hold any previous appointed or elected office that I know of and is (arguably) considered to be one of the best Secretary of State office holders (for his time in history). From what I read, Gates is honest and is his own man. Keep him. Eisboch |
