MINETA'S BEEN ASKED TO STAY-JUST ON FOX- I'M SICK!

FOX NEWS ON TV | 12-9-04

[STARWISE]

Oh my God ... how .. how could this be?

[bosshog]

Hey, I agree he is bad, but the devil you know is sometimes better than the devil you don't know. I think the only thing that would help the Transportaion Department is a Goss like person that would kick butt and flush out a good number of the rascals.

Seems to me that with the current upheaval/housecleaning at the CIA, the imminent appointment of a new intellegence Czar, and Dr. Rice headed to mop up the mess at the State Dept., that an overhaul of the Transportation Deparment will have to wait.

President Bush needs a token Democrat in the cabinet, M'nta is better than Albright or some other liberal talking fool.

JMHO

[dead]

Well, it'll at least get them to pay their parking tickets!

How has he been harmful to our national security? How many terrorist attacks have we had since 9/11? Could it be that the policies put in place by the DOT and Justice Dept. have prevented further attacks? I do not agree with many of the policies on airport security but I think those decisions come from higher up than the Secretary.

Was CFR? Yes it probably was. Yet if not for CFR, no 527's, and if not for 527's, George Soros might have spent his moeny more effectively -- and not on losers such as MoveOn, etc.. If not for 527's no Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth. If no Swifties lighting up the Truth, and no Soros-piles dumped on MoveOn -- Bush would have lost.

See? Even whan Dubya makes a mistake it's in his favor. Which makes it in our favor.

[CitadelArmyJag]

I have to agree with you on this one... How about some backbone every once in a damn while! As much as I get sick of Savage's radio show some times due to how negative it is, I think the SOB is right... I want to feel only "warm fuzzies" for Bush, but its this kind of crap that makes me flip out and feel like he betrays the party.

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

New slogan being proposed for all federal administrative agencies:

WE REWARD INCOMPETENCE. AND WE LOOK EVEN MORE FONDLY UPON GROSS INCOPETENCE. WHICH IS WHY YOU'RE PROBABLY SO GROSSED OUT AT THIS MOMENT.

[demlosers]

Passionate conservative?

[OXENinFLA]

Here's a report on this.

Mineta, Chao, Norton, Jackson Stay in Cabinet

[Sloth]

Maybe you could expound on your opinion instead of just saying you are sick. The news that usually makes me sick, is if a love one has been diagnosed with cancer, not that a Cabinet member is staying on.

Having a sick family member may be unfortunate, but its effect is typically limited to their personal circle of friends. Mineta staying in his current post means continued endangerment of millions of Americans, including ALL our loved ones.

[traviskicks]

Ok, still not hearing any specifics.

Yea, could someone give a summary of bad things Mineta's done, his political leanings etc.. etc..

I don't really have any opinion on him cuz I don't know anything about him or his past actions.

[OXENinFLA]

TSA: Taxpayer-soaking agency

[July 4th]

Maybe he was afraid Asians would balk at Mineta's removal. If that be the case, I suggest Michelle Malkin as a replacement.

[skeeter]

Yea, could someone give a summary of bad things Mineta's done, his political leanings etc.. etc.

No list. However, as a resident of a city Mineta mayored once upon a time, I will say he was/is considered very much a PC liberal here, even by NoCA stds.

[Rummyfan]

Disgusting! I thought this jackass would be out the door on November 3rd!!!!

[chimera]

W2 isn't getting off to a very good start. He's keeping a bunch of losers, Mineta, Snow, Chao. The latter two probably have the worst political skills among all of them. But, on a brighter note, I hear that Gregory Mankiw may be headed back to the Ivory Tower. Good riddance to bad rubbish on that one.

[traviskicks]

thnx. ughh... He's a democrat too huh? How can they hire 20 thousand more people then they are congressionally mandates to? Sounds like it's a mess over there.

I'm in favour of a Constitutional amendment that limits the number of agencies we can have. A good number would be 2 - department of homeland security and DoD. :)

[Rummyfan]

Well, as just one example of his boneheadedness... he has stated publicly and for the record that the TSA / FAA would never under any circumstances institute any kind of racial or ethnic profiling wrt screening passengers. That's why my eight-year-old daughter is subjected to rigorous scrutiny before boarding a flight, but Mohammed Al Terrorist just strolls right through!

[null and void]

Well, I'm

deeply saddened

[Jazzman1]

yeh, isnt he the same NITWIT that said racial profiling on air passengers was a BAD IDEA? Then 3000 Americans lost their lives on 9/11 and the MORON still stood by that claim? Murderer would be a more accurate description of this POS!

[Itzlzha]

Yeah, surrounding the UN with tanks will get us a lot of House and Senate seats in 2006.

Yeah, and wussified responses and ideas like yours give the(R)'s scum like Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe...REAL "Profiles In Moderation"/LIEBERAL SELLOUTS!

Clean up your own neck of the woods (Somalia refugees taking obver) before recommending that we suck it up and accept IDIOTS like Norm Minetta in ANY high-profile/Security function....the man DROOLS stupidity and PC CRAP for G_d's sake!
