Three’s Company? With Chrissy, Jack and Janet? Now that’s strange behavior!

Is there anyone in Obama’s so-called cabinet that is competent to do anything?

They’re very good at propelling their candidate to an office in which he is completely unqualified to serve. Not everyone can do that.

Is there any democrat in DC who is not corrupt?

No. Democrat politicians are by rule required to be corrupt. Otherwise, it makes the others look bad.

Is there any MSM members in DC who are not in the tank for the libs?

No and hopefully there are some (figurative) anti-tank missiles out there.

Sheesh sounds like the job description for a liberal reporter..

I want this opportunity
Remember hope n change,…

Yea a change of scenery right into the slammer..

obama == corruption on a whole new level
now all of congress is corrupt

I say its time to march on washington dc and ARREST them ALL.

Any competent chief executive of a firm that size would know how many employees worked for him and how much they cost; in fact, it would be one of the primary issues on their agenda.

So? If anything, this makes Kundra eminently qualified to help administer the trillions upon trillions of dollars the government is adding to its budget each month.

NOBODY has the slightest clue where any of that money’s going. Any competent executive would throw a screaming fit if he had to handle a job like that. But Kundra is clearly perfectly comfortable with it.

I concur.

Not only that, they surround themselves with ‘YES PEOPLE’ who are themselves what ‘ladyingray’ describes.

Whats the difference between Jesus and Obama?

Jesus could built a cabinet.

A pun and a double entendre!

I love this Blog.

He must be really really happy for the opportunity to punish the country for our past sins.

If the saying that “what goes around comes around” happens in this case, and please please let it happen, the residents of the White House are in for some long hard rock-breaking time.

Anything from getalife?

Hello?

Nothing?

She is busy trying to figure out how to work today’s falling market into a plus for Obama.

The best we can say about Vivek Kundra in this episode is that he’s incompetent as an executive, which thus far puts him at the same level of accomplishment as the man who hired him to work in the White House.

Ah, what a delicious line.

Obama appointee takes leave after raid. Yesterday, the FBI raided the offices of Vivek Kundra, Barack Obama’s appointee as Chief Information Officer for his administration, in a bribery sting that netted two arrests, including one of Kundra’s top a…

What information would Obama receive from this guy?

Why isn’t DTMH in this one providing a defense?

I’m thinking there’s been no marching orders yet from DailyKos or DNC-types.
Or perhaps he is waxing poetic at this very moment, researching past performances of these people to point us to & chiding us for not giving these people a chance to govern.
After all, Obama is stressed & POTUS is such a hard job.
Or maybe he’s on ‘leave’, too.
