President-Elect Obama need to honestly and completely fill out his own application before demanding such from people who like to work for him. Should he not be held to a higher standard? Fact is he is the MOST UNVETTED, dishonest candidate, always dodging issues or being evasive in his answers to inquiries! Will someone ask him this question during the next press conference?
Do you know that the questionnaire being sent by his office to those who desire to serve on the cabinet and other high-ranking posts may be the most extensive in history, even invasive?
It includes 63 requests for personal and professional records, some covering applicants’ spouses and grown children. Children too? Get this! Applicants are asked whether they or anyone in their family owns a gun! They must include any e-mail that might embarrass the president-elect, along with any blog posts and links to their Facebook pages.
It asks applicants to “please list all aliases or ‘handles’ you have used to communicate on the Internet.” Wow! Gestapo is coming to town! We need to know it all! The vetting process for executive branch jobs has reached a peak! However, why hasn’t Obama himself fully disclosed his own radical, leftist, shady PAST? This is the height of hypocrisy!
“President-elect Obama made a commitment to change the way Washington does business, and the vetting process exemplifies that,” said Stephanie Cutter, chief spokeswoman for the Obama transition office. Okay, but why doesn’t he lead the way by EXAMPLE? Where is his medical records, his college records, thesis, birth certificate…? HELLO? Will Obama disclose his membership in the socialist New Party? His Marxist mentors?

“they might salivate to work for the Master”
Very true and the ones that won’t are most likely the ones that could do him the most good. Wait till his first crisis and all his sycophants become yes men and he will be bringing in people without vetting. Then again, maybe he likes being surrounded by sycophants.
just heard Sen Hannity talk about this
Well if the Mediascum had required anywhere near this level of vetting for the Obamessiah he never could have made it to the first primaries — they sheltered him and coddled him, and on the few occasions when a problem did come up they made sure it was shoved in a small cubbyhole labeled “irrelevant smears” (what b.s.).
Obama is less vetted than anyone who has ever been President and anyone he could hire for the executive branch.
Then let’s discuss the FACT that he could never pass a security check and will be a great security RISK....
