Obama's Intelligence Chairman Nominee Withdraws Name

The controversy over President Barack Obama's nominee for a top intelligence position came to an end today when Charles Freeman removed his name from consideration.

U.S. Congressman Pete Hoekstra, (R-MI), the top Republican on the House Intelligence Committee, issued the following statement after Director of National Intelligence Dennis Blair informed the committee of the decision by Mr. Freeman to turn down his nomination to the post of Chairman of the National Intelligence Council:

"The Director of National Intelligence has informed the committee that Charles Freeman has decided to withdraw his name from further consideration as chairman of the National Intelligence Council. The decision by Mr. Freeman to withdraw his name is the right decision under the circumstances."

Conflict-of-interest issues grow for President Obama's new urban czar Adolfo Carrion

President Obama's new urban czar, Adolfo Carrión, admitted Tuesday he has not paid an architect who designed a renovation of his Bronx home two years ago.

That presents conflict-of-interest issues because at the time the architect was a key player in a Bronx development that needed approval from Carrión, then the Bronx borough president.

In a statement to the Daily News, Carrión admitted he hadn't paid architect Hugo Subotovsky to design a porch and balcony for his City Island home.

I noticed that at least one poster here as reverted back to the extremely tired and pretty much now irrelevant "It's all Bush's fault".

Broken record...

Actually the articles I'm posting aren't really that funny.

Another nominee withdraws, Pelosi wants military planes for personal use, Obama is "overwhelmed" right now and "tired". Democrats cheating on taxes all over the place and cursing out people that question them.

But then again, it is hilarious that some folks saw this all coming almost a year ago wondering why a guy who did nothing but read prepared speeches was going to get the most important job in the world. But then again...whatever, people wanted change.

Gee, the Amateur hour thing is taking roost.

Is it amateur hour at the Obama White House?

It was embarrassing enough that President Barack Obama insulted British Prime Minister Gordon Brown last week by handing him 25 movie videos as the chief executive’s diplomatic gift to the visiting representative of America’s most important ally. Compared to Brown’s gifts, which included a pen holder made of wood from a British warship that helped stamp out the slave trade, Obama’s gift, in the words of The Telegraph, looked like the kind of thing the White House might hand out to the visiting head of a minor African state. Even worse is the context in which this huge diplomatic gaffe took place — a six-week succession of miscues, oversights, miscalculations and outright errors that suggest things have gone seriously awry in the White House.
