Sounds like the guy was the most qualified for the position years ago, but was passed over for a Bushie loyalist, loyalty being the main consideration in all things for the last admin.

Sooner or later, GOPhers are going to have stop saying that Obama never gave them anything.

This seems to be a great pick. Hope and change, anyone?

Sure is a better pick than Dubya making his college roomie an Ambassador to keep him quiet about Dubya's "exploring" times as a cheerleader....

You were a cheerleader, thats cool. Dont ask, dont tell.

All bho is doing is trying to get the competition out of the way for 12.

Huntsman is a good choice fer the China post.

Not only with his background as a former missionary who speaks the language but also in the political sense that Huntsman is one of the names that has been floated as possible contender fer the 2012 GOPher POTUS nominations and this move likely precludes that one.

Win/Win fer Obama.

Be Well.

methsup,

do you pay this much attention your your countries politics?

Dumbya was a cheerleader, thats cool. Dont ask, dont tell.

FTFY.

Actually, we keep trying to tell ya that Bush was a cum-drunk, frat-rat. A kneepad-wearing, coke-head with a drinking problem but ya keep sticking yer fingers in ears and going "LALALALALALA I CANT HEAAAAAR YOU" over and over again.

Have you finally clued in yet or wot?

/Spud sed, hoping against hope.

Be Well.

Yeah, I've been cheering the GOP on to defeat. Of course, that's like cheering the Detroit Lions on to defeat.

They're both just natural FAILs.

Maybe he is a republican that wants to serve his country in an honorable way. The President asked for his service and he responded. Good for him. Just maybe, he's the best person for the job.

Hey righties, name one of Pres.dip shits appointees that was a democrat, besides head of transportation Mineta? I double dog dare you!!!!

Seems like a good pick to me. The guy can at least speak Mandarin and seems qualified for the job.

Almost impossible not to like someone who's often served in the missionary position...

First of all that would BE "DIP SHIT"

Second;, Who knows or cares, get over it.

There weren't any, because Democrats are stupid. In keeping Mineta as SecTrans, Bush prolly figured, "what's the worst that can happen? Terrorists hijack airplanes or something? Nah."
