Breeze: But you didn’t answer the question. Yes, he is extremely intelligent and his responses clearly support that. However, what about his appointments? You know as well as I that actions speak louder than words, and now we’re confronted with appointments that would seem to indicate a “business as usual” posture.
What about that? As I said earlier, I’m curious to hear what you think. Which means, don’t continue posting snippets of the interview, but weigh in yourself as to what you think his appointments represent in terms of “change” versus the status quo ante.
You mentioned Clinton earlier and that’s interesting. Interesting, because for an unabashed policy wonk, Clinton came up with very little in terms of new policy during his tenure. He was someone inarguably prepared to be President, from his Rhodes scholarship to his work as governor of Arkansas, but he produced little in terms of substantive policy. There might be some parallels here worth considering.

[/quote]I don’t know enough about his appointments to have an opinion of them. Plus, I actually am only aware of one appointment Obama has made: Rahm Emanuel? Supposedly the guy is a pit bull. I have no problem with that. Politics isn’t Camp Snoopy.
In any event, I likely would know very little about his other appointments even if I knew who they were. I’d prefer to wait and see what Obama actually does rather than speculate about what his appointments might mean.
As for Bill, I’d take him over Chimpy any day.
