14. I'm sure. I just saw the cnn special about this horrid person.
Very unnerving that so many people just went with the flow and didn't complain.

3. Well, he is very charismatic.
He has experience in South America. Hell, he's even got "executive experience.

I think its a great choice.

10. Oh God no...
I remember when that song came out, you couldn't walk down the hallways at school without hearing "BALLIN'!".

The last thing I need is to hear that in the middle of a press conference.

8. Oh Oh!
Obama is said to value Jones' advice and appreciates the signal it sends to put someone with more than 40 years of active military experience in such a senior position. Jones earned a reputation as someone who vocally expressed concern that the Pentagon had become too politicized during the reign of Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, another quality Obama is said to admire. Jones also brings with him expertise in two very sensitive international problems that Obama will be faced with immediately upon taking office, having served as chairman of the Congressional Independent Commission on the Security Forces of Iraq, and as special envoy for Middle East Security.

On a more personal level, Jones was, like the president-elect, raised abroad, having spent early years in France. And for the president-elect, who once said he'd replace the White House bowling alley with a basketball court, it cannot hurt that the 6'4" Jones is a former Georgetown Hoya basketball player.
