The new president is apparently having difficulty finding any cabinet appointees who have NOT been dipping their fingers into the till, dodging taxes, working for lobbyists if not acting as lobbyists themselves. You know… doing all the stuff he said he would put a stop to.

  The problem is he keeps trying pick politicians for his cabinet and apparently they are all pretty much liars and crooks… about like we all have come to expect. The problem I am having is this. WHen these discretions and examples of poor judgement come to light why doesn’t the president just pick someone else.

Why defend people who don’t pay their taxes when there are quite possibly a couple of folks in Washington who have.

Why chose people who have been peddling influence to major corporations and interest groups like Raytheon or the managed care industry. What is it about these folks that makes them irreplaceable. The only reason I can see to continue to back them is becasue he owes them for their support in the election. Business as usual in Washington.

My Obama made a lot of compaign promises about cleaning up the process in Washington and even if these recent nominees have done anything that was that wrong, the perception of wrong doing is as damning as the fact of it most of the time.

Please Mr. President… cut these guys lose and try to find an honest man.

Foemer president George W. Bush, or “George Buck” as he has taken to calling himself, has decided to start living his life long dream and become a cowboy. “Every since I saw Jon Voight in that movie about that cowboy in 1968 I wanted to be one of them” Bush told reporters as he was packing at his Crawford Ranch in preparation for his move to New York.

“This here ‘ranch’ was built in 2000 and we moved right in before the election. It’s a 10,000 square foot hacienda with a giant swimmin’ pool for the girls” he continued. “It’s not a ranch at all. Old Turd Blossom, Karl Rove, said we could convince the voters it was our old family ranch and get us more votes because the voter are essentially stupid. I guess we proved that all right!”

“Anyways I’m tired fo Texas and Laura and I thought about that cowboy in New York and decided ‘That’s for ME!’. I mean I was raised on the East Coast, and all my friends are big bankers and such, not those hillbillies and hicks in Texas.

 

“Plus I’m thinkin’ I can make a lot of new friends walkin’ those same streets ol’ Jon did.”
