    Change... you better believe it

    Forget the old politics. Forget the rewarding donors with ambassadorships. Forget the long time practice of 30% of ambassadorships being graft/corruption/bribery to get donor money. Obama isn't the old time politician. He's the one who's going to bring us change. He's the white knight. In the case of Doug and Cal and others he's the gleaming/glowing white knight, haloed with purity and perfection. No sir. He's not going to be the usual politician giving away 30% in favoritism. He's Mr. Change, the new man, the new regime. He's trying to give away far more than that. Were it not for the uproar from the career diplomats he probably would have.

    Common sense is only "right wing" if you are too far to the left.
    The lesser of two evils is still evil but less evil is preferred to more evil if those are the only two viable options.

    But You seem to forget....HE WON!! He even said so....
    There are people in need of help. Charity is one of the nobler human motivations. The act of reaching into one's own pockets to help a fellow man in need is praiseworthy and laudable. Reaching into someone else's pocket is despicable and worthy of condemnation.
    --Walter E. Williams

    "Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive."

    "The best defense against usurpatory government is an assertive citizenry."
    --William F. Buckley

    "When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right."
    -- Victor Hugo
