#1 Bush continues to astound. The confirmation hearings should be amusing ;-)

#2 Especially with Teddy "Torture Crisis" Kennedy continuing his downward spiral into insanity.

#4 The guy is a real hardass when it comes to despotic enemies. He is the most hawkish diplomat I know of.

Not sure if this makes him good for this thankless job, but I like his attitude.

Interestingly his brother founded the MIT media lab, I believe. Very different people but both at the top of their fields.

#5 I heard the lefty 9/11 families are against this nomination. GOOD CALL BUSH! If they are upset he must be doing something right.

#6 Just as intersting, but below the radar screen of the mainstream press is that Hayden, Director of NSA, is in the #2 slot. Wonder who will move to NSA with Hayden's departure

#7 Nancy Pelosi just was on Fox dissing him. Why? She can't even vote one him. She is isn't a senator. This is good our internal foes will show thay are just that. Keep flaping your lips you shriveled old gas bags.
