Pelosi: Tillerson Not Suited for ‘Revered Position’ of Secretary of State
breitbart ^

Posted on 12/13/2016 12:30:52 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” while discussing President-elect Donald Trump naming ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson as his secretary of state, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said, “With all due respect to the president’s nominee, perhaps he’s suitable for something else,” adding that secretary of state was “a revered position.”

Pelosi said, “First of all, let’s — what is the job? The job — the secretary of state is really in line to succession to the president of the United States … Well, by sequence, they are, but that’s the primary one and has special status. So the secretary of state is the person who should be recognized as a person who is a leader in terms of our security, our values, and our interests. In terms of the president-elect’s nomination, the coziness with Vladimir Putin is very alarming and should have eliminated him, frankly. Right now, his approach to the sanctions on Russia, because of their aggression in Europe, should be enough to say, perhaps another relationship with the administration, but not secretary of state.”

“My only concern is that there has been precedence in hiring from the private sector to fulfill Cabinet Posts.

JFK tapped Ford President Robert McNamara, one of Ford’s “Whiz Kids,” as Secretary of Defense.”

That’s why Trump is picking generals for Defense and DHS :)

Nanzi is thinking about the Revered Mother of State.
The woman as peacemaker not home maker, you know
like Maddie Alltobright the Mopwoman of State.
Oh the wonderous things they accomplished...NOT.

Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Angrier Mitchell Reports,” while discussing President-elect Donald Trump naming ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson as his secretary of state, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said, “With all due respect to the president’s nominee, perhaps he’s suitable for something else,” adding that secretary of state was “a revered position.”

Hey Angrier and Pelosi Galore, there is a "revered position" awaiting both of you. If you don't believe there is a God, then you will meet Him when you die. and there will be a special place awaiting you, for all of eternity. Wish you the best. If this special message does not keep both of you away from sleeping well at night, well then, it should.

- Signed by, The rest of the normal human race, of which you both have affirmed to be, not a part of.

“Good pick as proven by the hysterical reaction from the left.”

Good test. I used to evaluate whether something the UN did was good or bad for the US by finding out if it was supported by the French. I don’t know if it’s still true, but at the time they uniformly wanted to do the US dirty.

Rex will not steal from SoS.

Kerry used state fund to enrich his daughter’s charity, avoided tax on Yatch, changed rule to avoid wind mill next to his residence etc....

Oh Nancy, i feel so sorry for you.
You could do so much better if you just kept your mouth shut sometimes.
Remember Obama Care-Vote for it so we can see whats in it.
You displayed your elementary level to the whole wide world.

That’s what she said about Trump. If she’s upset, then I’m elated.

Nancy, you aren’t qualified to be human. Was Hillary or John Kerry qualified? Rex, is more qualified on the first day (heck in the first hour) than those two combined.
