So far it looks like Obama is picking an allstar team to help him get this country back on track

As a member of the Hillary Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants Suits I approve. She is one of the most qualified people of the job. Yes Obama is picking the right people for the top jobs not like Bush who put unqualified people in jobs who were just friends. Look at Connie Rice's qualifications. She speaks Russian, plays the piano and is a friend of the Bush Family. Those were her qualifications for being Secretary of State. Gonzo was given a degree as a minority and then with friendship appoinments. He went to the White House and because he did as he was told got the AG job. Knowing nothing Rove and Cheney filled in for the AG orders as Gonzo just held the title and signed what he was told.

Mr. Kitty we know how much you love your relatives but the topic is about Sister Hillary. Now I see members of the Bowtie Family everywhere I go and always think of you. Don't worry Sarah wont hard a Bowtie like she did Leon, Bull Winkle's cousin. Your safe and just tell the Family don't go to Alaska. Cheney will most likely be leaving the Country so that's taken care of.

lol Mr. Kitty. Maybe that cat can mow my lawn and I can quit paying my gardiner. And I thought you were a lazy bum cat that just eat all day, sleep, and use the kitty litter often. ;-)
