I accept your explanation, but suggest in the future that you work harder at your grammar. Here is what you actually wrote:
an incompetent nincompoop of which POTUS seems to have appointed a few—such as: Secretary of the Navy-Donald C.Winter, former CEO FATCAT of Northrup-Grummon with ties to Murtha- mentioned here the other night in re the Haditha Trial thread...
The sentence fragment clearly says that POTUS appointed a few incompetent nincompoops, and that the Secretary of the Nave was an example of one -- that's what "such as" means.

I don't believe there is any other valid way to read that.

Well Thank you...I’m glad that you agree with my basic premise now- about incompetent nincompoops- and i will work on my grammar and syntax too.
