Rule 1 should be never hire any former obama employee.

“This would be a disastrous choice,” one senior congressional aide tracking the matter told the Free Beacon.

“Patterson has a well-documented track record of sticking up for extremist groups at every turn. Her selection would mean elevating someone whose views not only run counter to the president’s, but U.S. national security as well. The administration should seriously reconsider.”

I swear you can’t take your eyes off them for five minutes. Our government is like a bunch of preschoolers. Wait, preschoolers are stealing billions of your hard earned money and redistributing it.

I don’t get it. Why pick an Obama retread? Unless Mathis himself is a stealth Muslim sympathizer. I don’t know the man, and you can’t be too careful these days, with the whole FedGov overrun with Muzzie operatives.

That shouldn’t even be necessary to say.

What is going on here?

She was a main tool Obama (Soros) used to install the muslim brotherhood as Egypt’s “government.”

Patterson, who served as U.S. ambassador to Egypt when the Muslim Brotherhood rose to power, advocated in favor of negotiating with the terror group. Her efforts drew outrage in the Egyptian reformist community, which still views Patterson as working to legitimize the Muslim Brotherhood.

As assistant secretary of state for near east affairs in the Obama administration, Patterson also led efforts to criticize Israeli authorities after they killed a Palestinian-American terrorist who was attempting to stab civilians.

“a former Obama administration official who lobbied in favor of engagement with the Muslim Brotherhood and spearheaded efforts to criticize Israeli counter-terrorism efforts”

I am astonished that anyone like this woman could ever be considered for a post in the Trump administration, not even to clean the floors. Who could trust her? The mohammedan brotherhood should be outlawed, not “engaged with.”

Mainstream Obama policies, we'll have to see if they're able to under a new administration.

He chose her. If she's "kicked to the curb" Congress will have to do it.

I have listened to many Mattis speeches/interviews and listened carefully.

He seemed to understand the enemy well and understand the importance of clearly identifying and naming the enemy.

I am at a loss as to what the hell he is doing here.

Mattis talks a good game, and his actions seem in the right direction. However, Mattis shares the illusion of Western elites that what Mattis calls “political Islam” is something separate from religious Islam.

Mattis seems outstanding as a leader in a war, but Patterson proves he has no clue about the primal reality of Islam, and shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near ‘policy’.

Listen to Mattis about the two minute mark:

There’s less there than meets the eye.
