Former VA Dem Governor Doug Wilder: Obama needs a staff shakeup
The Politico ^ | 2/9/2010 | Doug Wilder

The changes must go much deeper. Obama’s West Wing is filled with people who are in their jobs because of their Chicago connections or because they signed on with Obama early during his presidential campaign.

One problem is that they do not have sufficient experience at governing at the executive branch level. The deeper problem is that they are not listening to the people.

Hearing is one thing; listening is another.

The current administration needs a staff shakeup:

but I don't expect that problem to be fixed until January 20, 2013.

Doug Wilder was a pretty good governor of VA. Obambi would do well to listen to him. So would a lot of other Dims.

But then again, “listening” is the problem in the first place, isn’t it?

Zero experience coupled with near-zero IQ is a disastrous combination for a presidential cabinet.

Couple that with a child leader who still believes in Marxist silliness and we’re bound for a revolution - but not quite the one that Karl was dreaming of.

The three envelopes.

The outgoing manager gives the incoming manager three envelopes marked open in order at crisis points.

In the first crisis open the envelope marked #1.

Message: Blame previous management

In the second crisis open the envelope marked #2.

Message: Reorganize

In the third crisis open the envelope marked #3.

Message: Make up three envelopes

We;re at envelope #2

Paving the way for O to get rid of Rahm.

He doesn’t have the backbone to take control of his own staff.

Mr. Wilder does not realize that Obomba is very HAPPY with his progress.....no reason to get rid of ANYONE!

If Obama would have just stayed awake during Reverend Wright’s sermons he’d have heard that “the chickens have come home to roost”.

Obama’s staff is just about as experienced as he is.

My only surprise is that he hasnt replaced Robert Gates with his pal Bill Ayres.
