Got my wife to move south because of the politics in MA. Our vote never counted for anything and now here in north east FL we chose on of the most conservative counties called St Augustine IN St Johns county and love it here.
At least we know our votes can help and life is more freer.

Van Jones was an executive branch Green Jobs “czar”. He eventually resigned over his Marxist past but his position did not need Senate confirmation.
The following cabinet level nominees were withdrawn:
Bill Richardson as Secretary of Commerce.
Judd Gregg as Secretary of Commerce.
Tom Daschle as Secretary of Health and Human Services

The Senate has confirmed 307 Obama appointed federal judges and they have rejected six Obama nominees for federal judgeships.

Ironically it was President Eisenhower who appointed the first Secretary of Defense with no military background, Charles E. Wilson in 1954. Wilson had been President of General Motors.
Dick Cheney was another Secretary of Defense who had never served in the military.
