I couldn’t agree more with you on that. Heaven only knows what the Zero and his goon squads will do to Israel over the next four years.
And as mware just stated to me moments ago, Israel had better do as much as they can over the next few weeks because the Hildabeast will have to follow Zero’s true desires as things shape up. Tis going to be one hell of a screwy four upcoming years.
‘And the hits just keep coming. I watched as Major Garret discussed the fact that Paneta has no experience or background in intelegence.’
I wish Major had the balls to have the same conversation with his viewers about Obama when he was embedded in the Obama campaign. Something like ‘I’m covering the campaign of a guy who has no experience or background in politics’. Wow, I need to snap out of this...
I can’t help thinking that if somehow Bx0, Bidet, and Plugosi were out of the way, Hillary! would have her cabinet all in place already.
DiFi out of the loop. Oh, this is just crazy. The dummies don’t even talk to each other.
And what is up with Oh!Barama! ALREADY pretending to be President. Did I hear he is “working with Congress” as we speak on “his” stimulus package??? Is Dubya in the WH basement, bound and gagged?
>>This is a joke right?
Is Obama going to name a single experienced person to an important post or is that too much to ask of the noobie?<<
I suspect the problem is that anybody experienced signed off on at least one Bush43 admin policy of surveillance or interrogation that Obama objects to.
seems like the table is being set for the ‘manufactured crisis’ doesn’t it?
Amazing since I believe she is the head of the senate intelligence committee.
The dork let Lewinsky blow in under the radar?
Figures.
No kidding. That thing has been her baby for a long time.
Also interesting that another local, Rep. Jane Harman, also with extensive intel experience, has not been named to the incoming admin.
“Change”....”Hope”
according to aol.com, Obama has also chosen retired Adm. Dennis Blair, former head of the U.S. Navy’s Pacific Command, as director of national intelligence.
(is this a created position?)
according to the aol article, “Blair also is known in Navy circles for once trying to water-ski behind the destroyer he skippered, the USS Cochrane”

no love lose between Jane and Nancy. This is getting really ugly and frighting to boot.
Speculation here on my part ... either the IDF had some major casualties or they killed a lot of civilians.
there is a power-play brewing between the House leadership and Obama - Obama claimed that his ‘stimulus’ plan is ready to go, and ‘should pass’ the first week of his office; Reid said the other day, however, that it could take months and he wasn’t going to pass anything without it being discussed. We shall see....

Blair reportedly disobeyed orders from civilians in the Clinton Administration during the 1999 East Timorese crisis, during his tenure as Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Pacific Command. Amid growing international concern over violence against the independence movement in Indonesian-occupied East Timor, Blair was reportedly ordered to meet with General Wiranto, the commander of the Indonesian military, and to tell him to shut down the pro-Indonesia militia. Blair reportedly failed to deliver this message during his meeting with Wiranto, and instead gave Wiranto an offer of military assistance and a personal invitation to be Blair's guest in Hawaii.[5] Months later, after killings of independence supporters had grown, Blair was sent back to Indonesia and, following civilian orders, cut off all American ties to the Indonesian military.[6]
His membership on the board of directors of EDO Corporation, a subcontractor for the F-22 Raptor fighter program, and ownership of its stock was raised as a potential conflict of interest after the IDA issued a study that endorsed a three-year contract for the program. Blair told the Washington Post, "My review was not affected at all by my association with EDO Corp., and the report was a good one." He originally chose not to recuse himself because he claimed his link to EDO was not of sufficient "scale" to require it, but subsequently resigned from the EDO board to avoid any misperceptions.
However on Wednesday, December 20, 2006 the Washington Post reported that the US Department of Defense Inspector General's investigation into the affair found Blair had certainly violated IDA's Conflict of Interest rules but did not influence the result of IDA's study. Blair observed, "with all due respect to the Inspector General I find it hard to understand how I could be criticized for violating conflict of interest standards when I didn't have any influence on the study."

Now the rest of us who care get to "hope" this nation somehow survives.
