So Obama has problems with Howard Dean but he can appoint a Republican to his cabinet?

Somehow, I'm just not liking this at all. I'm sorry and I want to be supportive but I've had it with this bi-partisan crap.

1. Yeah, well, what do you expect from a filthy muslin?

6. Your comment does not contribute to the discussion. nt

7. Neither does the OP.

Feeding the rumor mongering about some supposed feud between Obama and Dean isn't terribly constructive either.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

11. I disagree.

It fits the phony, made-up anti-Obama rhetoric perfectly.

2. My thoughts exactly

In fact, I just said that to my husband about 15 minutes ago.

3. Well, we have plenty of people of color, gays, women, Hispanics represented, so it's no big deal.

Oh wait, no we don't.

4. Too bad somebody else didn't win...they would have found a

job for Dean.

[NeedleCast]

5. Wait, because Obama didn't offer Dean a cabinet position that means he has a problem with him?

[OregonBlue]

8. It doesn't appear that he is offering him anything. And he is rejecting the 50 state strategy. Just

saying.

9. Rejecting the 50 state strategy?

Where are you getting that from?

[OregonBlue]

12. From Tim Kaine's first statement after being elected.

[goforit]

13. True!!! The DLC never supported Dean. Emmanuel, the DLC'r, is keeping Dean out.

[BrklynLiberal]

10. hmmmmmm

[wroberts189]

14. It would be really nice to hear what Obama's position is. nt

[Chulanowa]

15. Obama has problems with Dean?

Is that so?

[Raksha]

17. No, Rahm Emmanuel has problems with Dean,

and he's Obama's chief of staff. I'm still trying to figure out how (or WHY) that happened. Rahm Emmanuel is a DLC/Republican Lite tool with a reputation for having a big ego. He didn't like Dean's 50-state strategy--apparently because it was "heresy" that WORKED!!! Maybe it worked too well and put too many progressives in Congress for Rahm's taste.

16. Another issue I have with Gregg at Commerce

is that he supports drilling in ANWR. This was a counterproductive appointment, IMO.
