I am deeply concerned about the allegations that are coming out about some of President Elect Obama's choices for cabinet level and other appointed positions within his administration.
First we have Bill Richardson stepping down because he is under federal investigation for what's being called "pay to play" violations. Not good.
Then we have Hillary Clinton's husband Bill accepting tens of millions of dollars from Arab nations who have vowed to destroy western civilization. The conflict is glaring and dangerous to say the least.
And now the potential head of the Treasury Department Tim Geithner "forgets to pay $34,000 in social security and Medicare taxes?” We should not have to accept having a man lead the IRS who cannot follow his own departments’ rule of law ... this is a preposterous precursor to anarchy.
And as if that was not enough, we
have to concern ourselves with our new "global warming czar" Carol Brown's
Socialist (read Communist) ties? By the way, what exactly does a "global warming
czar" do? And what is her position on minus one degree weather in
While all of this is going on, we sit on the sidelines watching Rahm Emanuel's easy skate away from the Blago fiasco? But, of course, he has such a nice smile.
All of these people should be
Republicans from
How much suspected crime in the highest offices of this country can we take before we put our country at grave risk, if we haven’t already reached that flash point? How much moral turpitude will it take before we put our country before “the party” or before particular men and women in the party?
How many of these shady details that keep getting unearthed is it going to take before we simply say enough is enough and we try to do something to stop blemished and suspect people from taking these high positions that have been offered to them, in this instance, by the most unprepared novice (with a suspect background of his own) who has ever been voted into the office of the U. S. Presidency?
We should be unwilling to accept any more shame brought upon us by people we should be able to trust, but can't. We need to put a fast stop to these appointments and demand some answers, some transparency, and some truth from our elected officials, now and forever. And, yes, I know … the sky should always be blue as well.




I am new to Dagney’s Rant. I am just a simple person. But wanted to give my thoughts. Well with Bill Richardson, I lived in New Mexico for some time, so this is not a surprise!
My fear is more with Nancy Pelosi… she WANTS power.. Obama is not going to have a easy time with her.
I hope that when I owe the IRS they remember their Leader.
And Hilary, how is she going to handle, She was second in line.
At least Obama is asking McCain for some help.
The Unite State is going to find out that Obama does not walk on water.
I wish the best for our new President, but think he will find out it is going to be much harder that what he bargained for. When the people that voted him in turn on him.
This is history!!! And glad I am around to see it happen. But also sad that I see what is going on. God Bless. We are going to need him…….
