Susan Rice to replace Donilon as national security adviser

[Adam Wood]

I think the cast from any sitcom we have ever had would do better than the current president and cabinet.

Sadly, I think you're right. Even President Al Bundy sounds better than what we have now.

They say that position does not require Senate confirmation.

Show of hands: who here feels more secure with a lying stooge acting as the national security adviser?


Does she even have any qualifications for this post?

About the same as Obama has to be president. Pretty much her skin tone.

It certainly is, Bailey. Even if especially meant to simply rub it in the faces of those of us on the right!

Another one of my favorites to quote is also kicking in ... good old Murphy's Law ... with the addition of the words: and at the worst possible moment!

For the country, that is. Damn this man to hell!

What truly scares me is this incompetent is advising the prez on national security matters. :(

Actually Rice doesn't have to go through confirmation hearings for this position. It's a direct appointment. Samantha Power on the other hand WILL have to (hopefully) be called upon to explain her very anti-Israel opinions.

Rice being appointed NSA defends Obama's flank. She'll be called to testify on Benghazi and will spout the WH talking points and give the President top cover from what he did wrong.

If she ever testifies on Benghazi, she will just dig herself in deeper. She is clueless, and it will show.

This administration doesn't reward competence or excellence (it wouldn't know either if it held an umbrella over the President in the rain), but it does reward its lickspittle lackeys, at least until they become liabilities.

I think the cast from any sitcom we have ever had would do better than the current president and cabinet.

Only if they stay in character. Most Hollywood actors are just as liberal and ignorant as politicians, but their characters would be much more interesting. Henry Winkler wouldn't make a great UN ambassador, but the Fonz would all kinds of fun. Danny DeVito is a huge lib, but Louie DePalma from Taxi would be the scariest SECDEF ever. Christopher Lloyd's Jim Ignatowski would be a very funny president, but it would be a bit of a stretch to have someone who smoked that much dope in college in the White House... Oh, wait. Nevermind.

Nah if it comes to that he'll just do like he did with Holder re; Fast & Furious and lock everything she knows up under Executive Privilige.
