    Bob Gates to retire next year; who replaces him?

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/08/16/robert-gates-plans-to-ret_n_683134.html Gates' retirement would certainly present the Obama Admin with a golden opportunity to shift course in Afghanistan. The question is, who out there has the military bona-fides to be confirmed for the SecDef post...

    Everything's Running Smoothly at Foggy Bottom

    Link The secretary of state wants him, the national security adviser wants him, the president calls to congratulates him, and then someone else gets appointed? Who overruled Clinton and Obama?

    Another Cabinet Appointee With Tax Problems

    Link Just for perspective: Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner had to pay $34,000 in back taxes after he got caught cheating on his returns - barely a third of what Daschle is in hot water for now.

    Geithner under the bus - ETA?

    Lookie here. Not only a tax cheat, but he was getting the money to pay the taxes. The honest mistake story isn't going to cut it. Remember Zoe Baird? Geithner Accepted IMF Reimbursement for Taxes He Didn’t Pay Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

    Obama Considering RFK Jr. for Cabinet Position

    http://www.mlive.com/us-politics/index.ssf/2008/11/obama_considers_stars_for_cabi.html I hope Obama reconsiders. I don't know the first thing about Junior's environmental credentials, but what I do know doesn't fill me with optimism. Wikipedia
