Tom Ridge replacement could be worst then he is
Keep in mind that Bush has already shown this pattern already with who he replaces these people with.

1. i fully expect the replacement to be as bad or worse.
and probably a cynical choice besides.

5. Agreed.
I think it's safe to assume that his replacement WILL be worse.

It'll be some crony insider person probably. Like maybe KKKarl.

3. Heh.
The only redeeming quality of Tom Ridge is that he has done nothing whatsoever during his tenure at DHS. God help us if Bush finds someone who wants to "fix" things.

11. you forgot the color code
how can you say he's done nothing? He's provided countless comedians with easy material.

12. Right-o
Appointing an inexperienced goober like Ridge was the first clue that Bush never gave a shit about DHS. It's too bad, really. He's the only one on Bush's team who was merely incompetent and unworthy, instead of evil.

9. I say
Lieberman, he can't think for himself. He will take away another senate seat for what he is worth. He kisses shrubs butt. A puke can take his seat.
