That really was an odd statement. As I understand it, this commission was formed by both Congress and The White House. It is their business and Kean appears to be over reaching a bit.

Appears?!?!?

He IS and the way he has handled this whole dang thing is an absolute joke

Don't get me started .. I still haven't calmed down from "The Jersey Girls" appearance on TV with Chrissy Mothballs

Tom Kean is an egotistical self-centered arrogant RINO from N.J. who has a political record that reads like a Democrat.
In political parlance, he is, like Chrissie Whitman, a "Rockefeller Republican."

Rockefeller Republicans get their name from Nelson Rockefeller, a former governor of New York State. Mr. Rockefeller, like Mr. Kean, came from old money - LOTS of it. He, like Kean, considered himself one of America's aristocracy. He, like Kean, called himself a Republican but had a political agenda that was socially liberal and ficsally conservative - sort of - the kind of fiscal conservatism that extracts money from the masses for the kind of social programs HE felt was necessary, while insulating himself and his wealth from government taxes.

Nelson Rockefeller walked out of the Republican Convention in 1964, along with Keating and Javits of New York when Barry Goldwater, a conservative businessman, and pilot in the National Guard, was nominated for President. They and their left-wing leitist limousine liberal cronies in the northeastern Republican establishment refused to support Goldwater when he ran for President, helping saddle the nation with Lyndon Johnson and the catastrophic Viet Nam War.

Arrogance and hybris drips from Mr. Kean's fangs when he speaks to those he feels less entitled than he.

My call on this is Kean is interested in a Federal Judgeship - probably on the Supreme Court, as anything less would be an insult to his dignity.

Remember Tom Kean, AND his son, Tom Kean Jr, another up and coming politco from New Jersey.
