Bush held over Richard Clarke on NSA staff. How'd that work out for him? If the person isn't a solid 'Pubbie (think, Ken Mehlman, e.g., as a not-solid 'Pubbie), the appointment eventually will blow back dirt on him.
So, does Elaine "got dirt"?
“Doesn’t matter — if she’s working for Mother China, it doesn’t matter who appointed her.”
AGREED!
“So, does Elaine “got dirt”?”
Dirt? Not my word. She promoted many policies most ‘conservatives’ don’t agree with, like amnesty (CIR),more outsourcing, more illegal immigration. It’s easy to find her statements as Secty. of labor...here’s one pushing for more foreign ag workers.

[snip] Feb.2008 Secretary Chao:
And so let me just tell you a little bit about what’s happening at the Department of Labor. There are about 1.2 million hired agricultural workers in our country today, and estimates show that between 600,000 and 800,000 are undocumented workers. There simply are not enough U.S. workers to fill the hundreds of thousands of agricultural jobs that are available in this country.
Farmers can hire temporary workers, foreign workers, to harvest their crops through the H-2A Visa Program, which was established by Congress in 1986, and administered by the Department of Labor. And yet despite the fact that this program is uncapped, agricultural employers hired only about 75,000 H-2A workers in 2007
Secretary Chao: It would be interesting to note here, H-2A visa program is the only one that is uncapped, and yet it’s under-utilized.
Question: But how many visas really can be made available in a year’s time before –
Secretary Chao: Well, it’s unlimited.
