The neurosurgeon isn't qualified, said the democrat.

You know, if I was Obama, I would tell my party--yes, his party, he is (will be) the President, it's his fucking party--to chill the fuck out. I mean, Reid, Feinstein, Pelosi, are trying to pull the puppet strings from the balcony 50 feet above him and it's really getting tired quick. I never liked Pelosi and she is already drawing the lines in the sand. Feinstein is an idiot, DCIA isn't a field job, it's a management job. The guy was former Chief of Staff in the Clinton administration (you know, that President that appointed Tenet, remember?), you don't think he saw the daily briefings and what not. He has a shitton of access. And then there is Reid who is backtracking in every way possible concerning Burris (which he should have shut up about). Democratic leadership is pissing me off.

Fareed Zakaria should of been SOS.

I think Gupta is qualified, he was a white house fellow and an advisor to Hillary Clinton so it's not like he dosn't know how Washington works.

Not to mention he is a...doctor! (Even though, Aasif Mandvi was hilarious concerning Sanjay. "Everyone's a neurosurgeon Jon!"
