4. Makes you wonder if Hillary was, in fact, qualified for the job, eh? |
|
Seriously, after eight years of BushCo*, it's going to take another decade to wash out the stench. Firing all the unqualified, uneducated, willfully ignorant BushCo* hires would probably add a couple points to the unemployment stats, and Obama can't afford that right now.
Poor Hills. You gotta wonder what it's like to be her and get up every morning knowing what she's got to face at the office - Homer Simpson, sure, but a passel of Pat Robertson Jr. clones has got to wear on you.

6. The American hard right is deeply entrenched in the State Department. |
|
They fly right under the radar. It will take an act of will to clean it out and I don't see that happening anytime soon.

9. I'm old enough to remember when our embassies and missions were guarded... |
|
...by US Marines.
Another reason why privatizing such duties is just plain stupid.:thumbsdown:

3. Can't imagine why wanton war without justification |
|
could have such undesirable effects.
:sarcasm:
For the poor innocents that end up defective or abused, my heart bleeds.
For the criminally insane that propagate terror and fear, my anger rages.

8. a "tenth" of the private contractors contact the an oversite org about the problems and there was |
|
already a previous gov. investigation of these private contractors and our gov. still renews a 189m contract with them??
talk about a deaf ear. We loves us some military-industrial complex even if it threatens national security..
All the problems with kbr and how this and the teabirtherdeathers want more privatization and less gov. Well, this is what you get...
Should be called "whackinit"

13. Speaking as a (former) frat-guy, I can honestly say there was *never* any face-in-ass shenanigans |
|
-and we didn't even have the reputation and security of our country at stake. This shit is unreal. Its embarassing for our country and a danger to everyone involved, expecially considering the location. I'd like to see Sec of State Clinton mandate several job terminations--starting with the ambassador.
