Obama Has Many Choices

     We can almost assume that not 100% of the people Bush appointed were idiots.  There are thousands of political appointments, and he didn't know them all personally.  Bush didn't get in any trouble at all, for anything he did as President, so I'd like to thank the shoe-thrower.

     Here are some people who work for the government, or government started entities, and a review of them:

Thomas Stall	USAID Iraq Director	Worse than Worthless. Still saying "stay the course." Knee-jerk privatizer, people be damned
Raymond Gilpin	USIP Assoc VP (Econ)	Knee-jerk privatizer, somewhat forthright with bad news, not impressive, non-native English speaker
Paul Brinkley	Dep. UnderSec'y of Defense for Bus. Transformation	Not brilliant, still too pro-Business, but pragmatic. Keep
John Herbst	State Dept. Coord for Iraq Reconstru	worthless
