Not Everyone’s Disappointed With Obama’s National Security Team
Posted: 17 December 2008 by Little Alex in National News, Political ScienceTags: Cheney, Christopher Hitchens, Hillary Clinton, jim Jones, Joan Walsh, National Security Advisor, Obama, Robert Gates, Secretary of Defense
VP Dick Cheney thinks it’s “pretty good.”:
“I must say, I think it’s a pretty good team,” Cheney said of Obama’s national security choices, in a segment of the interview broadcast Tuesday on “Good Morning America.”
“I’m not close to Barack Obama, obviously, nor do I identify with him politically. [Newspeak that means nothing for the masses of asses here. No need to read],” he said.
But the vice president also said he thinks “the idea of keeping (Bob) Gates at defense is excellent. I think (retired Gen.) Jim Jones will be very, very effective as the national security adviser.”
The VP doesn’t like Obama’s pick of Sen. Clinton as secretary of state, but I’ll go with an intelligent warmongerer on this one for some rationale:
I don’t share Mr. Hitchens’s view on foreign policy, but I always enjoy watching intellect take talking points to school any day of the week.
Seriously, where do GENBC, FNC, and CNN get these people?
