President Barack Obama will "likely" name Gary Locke, the first Chinese-American governor in US history as his pick for Commerce Secretary, a senior administration official said Monday.

Got tax returns?
Obama better vet this guy and check to see if Locke paid his taxes. If he filed his taxes correctly and on time every year, it will disqualify him for a job in the 0 adminstration. Tax cheaters ONLY!
Ever notice how the MSM completely ignored Jindal?
It’s because they are afraid of him. If he runs in 2012 he’s got my vote. Could you imagine the muzzies reaction to a Christian Indian as the leader of the Free World? I’m already looking at purchasing stock in Orville Redenbacher.
Did Locke pay his taxes? might save a lot of heartache.
Gary Locke? Figures. Tapping all of Washington State’s present and former Communists for positions in the Politburo. (Like Ron Sims.)
What’s the difference between Jesus and Obama?
Jesus was a master carpenter. Obama can’t even assemble a cabinet.
Commerce Secretary seems to chosen by spinning the Wheel of Fortune!!!
This has all the makings of another Clinton era repeat and what a disaster that turned out to be. Can anyone say China-Gate.
For evidence, I submit b. Hussien Obama.
Yeh, but they each have that icon thing going...
Assuming this is true: CONGRATULATIONS GARY!!! :-)
Gov. Locke is a good guy — very much a mainstream, “Sensible Center” kind of guy. His time as Governor of Washington State was fairly uneventful. He certainly didn’t run the state into the ground. And even though yes, he’s a Democrat, and was mostly elected by the Left Side of the state, he’s not a wild-eyed budget-busting ultra-liberal. The Commerce Department would do well to have him. He’s an effective consensus-builder and good at getting things done that need doing.
I agree. Locke is a great pick, despite the fact that all Obama cared about was filling out his diversity card.
