WASHINGTON (AP) — State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki will become President Barack Obama's new communications director, filling a key slot as Obama embarks on the final two years of his presidency, White House officials said Thursday.

Isn't that liberalism?

"Obama picks State's Psaki to head White House communications" OH WOW... This should be fun... She's already a world-wide running joke. She makes Baghdad Bob look like a truth-teller.
