Gee, would Juan Willaims even have a job in journalism if he wasn't black?

Brilliance on the part of Juan Williams. In essence, the President should appoint people who won't carry out his policies. What a twit!

He works for NPR, for goodness sake! I never could understand why they even have him on Fox News. I guess to be fair and balanced. Well, the left-stream media never presented both sides for how many years? 40? Its our turn.

Does anybody else ever think that he actually gets the talking points sporatically? Note that in this exchange, Williams goes from one thing to another, very little coherence. Sometimes Williams can be very insightful and honest, but not on FNS, where he feels the need to spout talking points.

Williams' position on this is laughable. The Cabinet is part of the Executive branch; it's not there to provide a check and balance. The Secretaries are there to make sure that the President's agenda is enacted in their respective departments. I thought Hume, Wallace, and Kristol did very well in exposeing this transparent attempt to limit Bush's mandate.

Williams reflects the typical liberal mindset. There's something alarmingly suspicious about people who are all in agreement and on the same page in the playbook.

He favors an atmosphere of indecision and internal strife. The kind that he's grown accustomed to in his own politics.

Short answer: No. He is a certified buffoon.

So you found it was posted a day or two back?
Does that matter? Are we costing Jim bandwidth by putting on a new disccussion? Why does this bug you so much that you have to run a search on it?

What about the people who didn't see it? How would they know to find it? You can't run a search if you don't know the search terms in the title?

Of course not. Juan Williams is clearly an affirmative-action hire.

Exactly right. Plus, I'm trying to remember when Juan Williams and any of these other "Dem talking point" commentators brought up the lack of dissent on the Clinton Cabinet. In fact, I remember they all walked in lockstep, defending him when he denied his sexual interludes with Monica, and then they all stayed on his cabinet when he had to admit it. None of them dissented from his policy of fooling around with White House interns. So I believe these commentators protest too much about wanting to see dissent on the Bush Cabinet.

Perhaps I'm working under an illusion, but I thought that when the people elected a President that they supported his views or policies on which he ran, and that they wanted him to work toward achieving those. The President creates his cabinet to help him fulfill those promises. They have their various cabinet positions based on the President's good graces. If the President chooses competent people to serve on HIS cabinet, they will offer good advice to the President, but they aren't there to be obstructionist.

This desire to have dissenting points of views by cabinet members from those of the President, under the guise of being more intellectual, is an attempt to sandbag President Bush. The liberals are hoping that President Bush's own cabinet will obstruct the President's goals.

There was one woman cabinet member who did mention she was uncomfortable that Clinton lied to the cabinet, and Clinton stared at her with furious anger.

Also remember what a toady Janet Reno was to Clinton. They wanted to get rid of her after the first term, and she stayed on, but from then on there was no indepedence in the Justice Department.
