I believe some bets were made along the way that Kundra would inevitably be declared acceptable for the CIO position in the Obama cabinet.

The “Transparency” of this misAdministration is all too transparent.

Obama computer chief guilty of theft in 1996
Associated Press ^ | March 17, 2009 | MICHAEL J. SNIFFEN

Posted on Tuesday, March 17, 2009 2:37:49 PM by Free ThinkerNY

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama’s new computer chief, already on leave after an FBI raid at his old job, turns out to have pleaded guilty to misdemeanor theft in 1996 when he was 21 years old, court records show.

It was the latest case of damaging information emerging publicly about one of Obama’s choices after he announced their appointment or nomination.

This is just more verification of my 2009 tag line.

I believe he does. This is one of those “czar” positions - not requiring a vote.

And creating all those czar position is the equivalent of an end run around the Senate’s Advise & Consent powers.

Not unless it’s closely tied to freedom. That appears to be the litmus test.

Criminality is not a hindrance to office in this administration, it’s a prerequisite.

(And bribery is almost too mundane for this bunch.)

this is a bogus spot.....Obama’s help desk for his blackberry. So what if his last job saw millions pilfered right under his nose. This fits right in line with Geitner.
