I know he probably isn’t included in any fantasy conservative cabinet but count on McCain asking Joe Lieberman to be in it...

Hunter for Sec. of Defense.

The Dept. of State should be eliminated altogether.

Hunter called the people in the state Dept. Knuckleheads. It would be fun to watch him clean that place out.

Honestly, he'd be a terrible VP choice, but for SecState I think Lieberman would hit the ball out of the park.

Secretary of Defense would have to be Chuck Norris. If Chuck Norris was our SecDef, we wouldn't even need to use the military, but just show our enemies a Delta Force marathon.

Santorum for Health and Human Services.

I’m seconding your nomination for Secretary of Defense!

For Secretary of the Treasury, how about someone else who has run a large, successful company and thinks that it’s NOT ok for budgets to be in the red year after year...

David Petraeus cannot be SecDef due to the National Security Act of 1947.

The earliest he would be able to become Secdef would be 2019.

Thanks. Secretary Of State.

Clean the place out from top to bottom. Find somebody to start working and believing in OUR interests instead of all the leftist baloney and effulents in the world.

Get rid of all the “liberals” and lefty commie socialists etc.

Somebody to do the same to the CIA and make it pro American again.

I believe so. The law states that a ‘flag officer’ must wait 10 years after. Here is the issue with George Marshal

“Marshall’s appointment as secretary of defense required a special congressional waiver because the National Security Act prohibited a commissioned military officer on active duty within the previous 10 years from holding the post. Although the Senate approved quickly, questions did surface about a military leader holding a position clearly intended for a civilian.”
