Here is who likes Mabus, which is about as close as we'll get to a clue in Wiki:
Awards, honors, community service
Mabus has been awarded the U.S. Department of Defense Distinguished Public Service Award, the U.S. Army’s Distinguished Civilian Service Award, the Martin Luther King Social Responsibility Award from the King Center in Atlanta, the National Wildlife Federation Conservation Achievement Award, the King Abdul Aziz Award from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and the Mississippi Association of Educators’ Friend of Education Award.
He is active in many community activities, primarily focusing on education. Following Hurricane Katrina, he founded the Help and Hope Foundation, which works to meet the needs of children affected by the storm.
He is a member of the RAND Center for Middle East Public Policy[26] and the Council on Foreign Relations,[27] and is the Distinguished Lecturer on the Middle East at the University of Mississippi.
As a photographer, his photographs have raised tens of thousands of dollars for various Mississippi charities.
He has appeared on many television programs as an expert on the Middle East, including “60 Minutes” and “Nightline.”

He's a CFR internationaloid, NWO type and a Bozo-booster and NEA-kisser. That's about all you can say about him.
That’s one odd post there, Bunky.
