The NY Post, a newspaper fit only for wrapping rotten fish, had a story about possible Kerry Cabinet picks. I was watching FAUX waiting for Wes Clark to come on and this point came up. A black talking head pointed out that there were no "people of color" listed as part of Kerry's potential cabinet.
This was a POST projection that had absolutely NOTHING to do with JK or anyone other than the degenerates who pull down a salary printing lies and distortions in those pages. The guy on FAUX didn't hesitate a heartbeat (if he has one) in lambasting Kerry because of what the article said.
These people make scum look like upright citizens.
Bring back the Fairness Doctrine and make Howard Dean the next FCC Chairman.

17. And to round out the cabinet: |
|
State: Clark Defense: Nunn HHS: Dean Justice: Spitzer (most important appointment domestically) FBI (fire Meuller immediately) CIA (fire Goss immediately) Interior: (whomever Al Gore says) Fed. Reserve: Rubin (push out Mr. "Mitchell") National Security: Holbrooke Energy: (whomever Al Gore says)
No Republicans, no, no, no McCain.

the Kerry/Edwards people would be foolish NOT to begin thinking about a transition.

22. My thoughts... drawing a blank on a "cabinet that looks like America" |
|
I'd like to follow Clinton's lead on having a cabinet that looks like America, but I keep coming up with old white men...
Sec. of State: Wesley Clark. I had originally thought Holbrooke, but heard from Tweety that Holbrooke wants NSA. Bill Clinton would be good as well.
NSA: Richard Holbrooke
Atty General: Spitzer would be great, but I want him as governor of NY instead. I'm hoping for a top minority person here instead, but I'm drawing a blank on who...
Homeland Security: Bob Graham
Chair of the DNC: Howard Dean
Ambassador to the UN: Bill Clinton
Sec of Defense: Colin Powell, Sam Nunn, John Warner
To replace Alan Greenspan; Bob Rubin
