What’s next? Oprah for Secretary of Education?

I do not believe Oprah has any teaching credentials where as Sanjay Gupta is a real Medical Doctor. Come on, this is simply a medical spokesman sort of job for which Dr. Gupta is obviously qualified. I think the real problem is the appearance of bias when it comes to CNN reporting on Obama but that is so obvious any way what difference does it make?

This is not so different than Tony Snow being appointed Press Secretary. I wish Tony would have come to the job sooner. I also ask myself what Tony would think of the Gupta appointment and my guess is Tony would have been cool with it. RIP Tony Snow.
