Which Obama Official Would You Like To See Let Go And Why
Edited on Mon Dec-21-09 05:35 PM by rhombus
It could be a cabinet level official, other White House staff, your pick.

Who is the weakest link, and which areas does the administration need to improve on?

2. Rahm. He never did anything but fight AGAINST progressives
No one in a Democratic administration is supposed to be hostile to liberals and leftists. It's the OTHER side you're supposed to hate.

3. Summers and Geithner, by far.
We're never going to get anything close to meaningful financial reform until those two are gone and replaced with ethical people.

6. Rahm -- overwhelming
he is pushing Obama into the wrong decisions. He is corporate held and corporate bound and everything he does is for the corporations. He has to go..

11. Emanuel - no contest
His words and actions sometimes seem diametrically opposed to Obama's. It makes the administration appear disorganized and indecisive.

He appears eager to upstage and contradict his boss and sometimes it appears as though the two of them never talk.

12. Too many to pick just one
Rham, Duncan, Geitner, Summers, Rubin, ect. Maybe it would be easier to name one good pick.

14. Rahm, worst of the anti-true-reform bunch.
Oh go, oh go, Emanuel! ;-)

15. Right now, I'd have to say Rahm the Angry Dwarf
And he can take all his Message Discipline LLC flunkies with him.
