Bob Kerrey Replaced Max Cleland on the 9/11 Commission

And whether you like him or not, he is a person on action. He was the former governor of Nebraska, former Senator, and former boyfriend of actress Debra Winger. He is presently president of a university.

George W Bush may regret the day that he apppointed Max Cleland for another position since Kerrey does not cover for the Democrats or the Repubs, even though he is a registered Democrat. He will keep the ball rolling on the commission's work and will not accept the stonewalling that has taken place up to this point. I'm sure he has the ear of former Governor, Thomas Kean of NJ...

2. This is bad news--Bob Kerrey was part of CIA's Phoenix Program in Vietnam

Kerrey is tainted by having worked for the very same people that he will be investigating.

Can you knock the lefty purist, holier-than-thou, self righteousness off for just one second? Please?

Read the NY Times Magazine profile of Kerrey and then get back to me.

"Tainted." Give me a break.

5. I think Kerrey may be compromised

He was governor of Nebraska during the Franklin Credit Union scandal.
