Let me guess, we have no one in all of the US qualified for this position that does not have a scandal-free background.....no one in a country of 300+ million...? =.=

The fellows bio is here

I'll have to confess, I did a short (5 yr) stint with a DIA unit while active, and never heard of this guy. Different circles I guess.

Didn't see any major messes attached to his bio.

Washington is a cesspool. If even the most ethical person stays there long enough, they will be either dipped into it, or at the minimun, splashed with it.

You can not stay clean and survive in that town.

It's time for Spring Cleaning from top to bottom in that place. They are out of control, and it is our fault for allowing them to do it. Contractors, breaucrats, media, lobbiests, and especially politicians --- all of them need to go. We need to hit the rest button.

I confess that I thought Obama might have made the right call with Harding. Heck, compared to Eric Holder and Janet Napolitano, the guy looked downright brilliant at first glance.

In my defense, though, when I formed that opinion I had just drank a really BIG glass of Kool-Aid. (and I have the cherry-colored mustache to prove it) ;-)
