Well, at least the one good thing to come out of this is that Bush has learned his lesson about cronyism.

Or maybe not...

Quote:
The Bush administration is seeking to appoint a lawyer with little immigration or customs experience to head the troubled law enforcement agency that handles those issues, prompting sharp criticism from some employee groups, immigration advocates and homeland security experts.

The push to appoint Julie Myers to head the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, part of the Department of Homeland Security, comes in the midst of intense debate over the qualifications of department political appointees involved in the sluggish response to Hurricane Katrina.

Concerns over Myers, 36, were acute enough at a Senate hearing last week that lawmakers asked the nominee to detail during her testimony her postings and to account for her management experience. Sen. George V. Voinovich (R-Ohio) went so far as to tell Myers that her résumé indicates she is not qualified for the job.

-snip-

Myers also was an associate under independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr for about 16 months and has most recently served as a special assistant to President Bush handling personnel issues.
It's not like it's an important agency or anything, right. It's not like we are having any problems controlling immigration.

Well, at least Bush didn't put someone like Karl Rove in charge of the Hurricane Katrina reconstruction effort. Oh wait...

He will NEVER Learn. Great leaders LEAD. LEADING a nation is NOT doing favors for freinds at the cost of America.

I'm sure Barbara Bush is consoled by the idea that the Grandma's accomodations were an improvement on her former.
