Rahm Emanuel expected to quit White House
Telegraph ^

Posted on 06/20/2010 5:58:30 PM PDT by Def Conservative

Rahm Emanuel, the White House chief of staff, is expected to leave his job later this year after growing tired of the "idealism" of Barack Obama's inner circle.

Washington insiders say he will quit within six to eight months in frustration at their unwillingness to "bang heads together" to get policy pushed through.

Mr Emanuel, 50, enjoys a good working relationship with Mr Obama but they are understood to have reached an understanding that differences over style mean he will serve only half the full four-year term.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Too bad the rest of the naive, stupid, treasonous creeps, knaves, liars, criminals and creeps working for The Won, The Messiah, The TOTUS don’t take a hike also.

Maybe Obama will appoint him to dole out the $20 billion to the “victims” of the oil spill. Just like Clinton sent him and Jamie Gorelic over to Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac for big time payouts. In my opinion that’s all it’s about, thieves ripping off as much as they can...I bet all those poor folks down in the gulf will get their fair share of BPs money right? Rahm’s the perfect guy for the job. He’s such an honest guy. Obama should send Blago down there to to pass out the company’s money.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see it turn out that way.

Seriously for a moment, for purposes of conversation, remove Rahm from the picture and replace him with a Milquetoast like David Axelrod...how does that change the political picture??

If not Axelrod, then whom?? Let’s assume for now that this is a good rumor...who is a likely successor?

Keep in mind that the timeframe for this would coincide nicely with a major Democrat ass-kicking in the November elections, so it is not at all beyond reality for Premier Hussein to order a purge, starting with the Chief of Staff.

The question is, will Premier Hussein try to move right like Clinton did, or will he try to dig in and reinforce his leftist agenda?? It’s hard to see him doing anything else significant if the Republicans take over the Congress, but what we don’t need is a bunch of Right Wing Socialists taking over for the Left Wing socialists. We need people to get in there and start disassembling the Federal monster we have created, before it devours us all.

A RAT Congresscritter who loses his seat in Nov.

I don’t buy that. If the Dhimmies lose big in November the last thing the Administration will do is pick up some fresh loser as COS.
