"I suppose Andrea is longing for the days of Reno and Notbright."

Not to mention that fountain of wisdom Jocelyn Elders.

Sandy "Light Fingers" Berger.

I wish Sandy Berger was still on the cabinet.

He would have put the Indian Ocean tsunami down his pants, saving hundreds of thousands of lives.

Jocelyn Elders was going to get together with Eric Clapner and design safer bullets.

Well, at least in hard sciences the Nobel caliber people frequently have Nobel sized egos, and that would make such people essentially unmanageable. Not quite what one would want to see in cabinet officers, right?

Don't forget such luminaries as Federico Pena of the ValuJet disaster.

"Condi should challenge her to an intellectual duel. Or one on pianos."

They'd have to handicap Condi with a 100 pound bag of lead shot, break her pencils, tie one hand behind her back, and induce swelling with a bunch of bee stings to make that a fair race.

Not the brightest? She should have seen Stephanopolous get his hat handed to him by Powell last night. He looked pretty stupid. He was outed last night as far as I'm concerned as a complete media moron.

That horsefaced old bag wouldn't know "bright" if it was spelled out in xenon lasers.

And if you want to see a cabinet that defines "not bright," look at the freak show Bill Clinton assembled. Between half a dozen of them, I doubt they could muster enough human DNA to make a person. Madeline Albright?? Uh huh. Pinup girl for the East German shotput team. Janet Reno? A partially shaved Wookie. Donna Shalala? An explosion at the recombinant lab. Bill Richardson? Couldn't cut it selling vacuums door to door so Clintoon put him in charge of the country's nuclear policy. Hazel O'Leary? The cow should have kicked HER over.

And the list goes on ...

She does not have the required gray matter to make such a judgemrent. A societal parasite lacks credentials to judge any one, especially not her betters.

Andrea's IQ is probably very close to a cold room temp.

She's one to talk. She's an awful substitute for Chris Matthews - totally at a loss for off-the-cuff, impromptu questions or comments. And she's so bad on Imus, even he appears to be bored by her.

I wonder if Mitchell has even read "The Best and the Brightest", since Halberstam's book documents just how jaw-droppingly stupid that crew was. Even a short list of Robert McNamara, McGeorge Bundy and his brother William, Dean Rusk, George Ball, and William Westmoreland is a rogue's gallery of Eastern Libs and/or Ivy Leaguers who were thought to be the "elite" and who actually gave us the fiascos of Vietnam and the Bay of Pigs (to name but two.)

There's no comparison between that group of East Coast white liberals and the accomplished individuals in the Bush Cabinet who truly worked for their success, such as Sec. Powell, Condi Rice, and Elaine Chao (daughter of Chinese immigrants and former Director of the Peace Corps).

Ms. Mitchell's comments are further evidence of why the blogosphere is growing. As Hugh Hewitt points out in his new book, Blog : "the MSM is very slow and very distrusted."

Um, have you looked at Mineta's bio? The guy spent most of WWII in a Japanese internment camp in Wyoming, graduated from Berkeley, worked in Army Intel, then began a very successful career in public service. You may question his judgement, but his character and intelligence are well documented.

Overall. I have been very turned off by the TV commentators" coverage of this disaster. It has been completely tasteless. All they can talk about is whether we are giving enough and whether we are missing an opportunity to look good. That's no way to act when thousands have died and relief organizations are mobilizing. No respect.
