  • Allowed to comment on the situation? Why not? I mean, I wouldn't recommend anybody here for the main 'interrogator' in the hearing, but we can talk about it all day.

    Oh you are allowed to like the president is allowed to pick his cabinet. Just none of you are the slightest bit qualified to comment. Correct?

  • PS spin boy, fake news boy, I never said you weren't allowed to do anything. Just that you weren't really qualified.

    WSS

  • Difference being, you and I commenting doesn't impact anything, whereas being appointed secretary of something has fairly large ramifications.

    Also, "spin boy, fake news boy?" I feel like you're trying to insult me here but I'm not sure I really fit 'spin boy' and 'fake news boy' doesn't really mean anything.

  • Because you suggested I said you weren't allowed to comment. So saying something that somebody else never said his fake news related. But I didn't mean to be offensive from now on it will be spin man and fake News man.

  • So the Trump derangement syndrome gang likes one of the appointees and that makes them open-minded? There's probably something Cal can find about Obama that he doesn't hate.

  • But I guess that's right. For that matter I can't think of a single qualification it would make Al Franken a good United States Senator.

    Or any number of u.s. Senators for that matter. Or congressman or even presidents.

    Like I said if she were a union flack an appointed by a Democrat I'm sure you guys would have a different View.

    Obama was previously a senator, previously a member of the IL senate, a constitutional law and civil rights professor, and is 'unqualified'.

    What does that make Trump's qualifications? Or DeVos'?

  • yet the TRUTH is...he voted "present" so no one would know how he really stood. 129 times.

    and sure, he taught Constitutional law. And he did NOT support our Constitution.

    So, he LIED ABOUT DEFENDING OUR CONSTITUTION>

    it what they want to make of it.

  • so, Chrissy, you think obamao's dishonesty, bitter critic of our Constitution, affection

    for socialists and communists all his life, racist beliigerence, secretive bigotries

    that he held secret for so long.... his lies about how he stood for Real Marriage, and

    Trump's qualifications? Owns and operates a huge multinational corporation and does it reasonably well. There's more to being the president than just being a political Flack . By the way Obama was never a professor he was a lecturer, a step up the ladder from Proctor. And got into Harvard thanks to affirmative action.

    And if qualifications are so damned important to you all of a sudden how could he have possibly lost to John McCain?

  • For an elected official, qualifications only matter in so far as they drive voters to vote for that official. That's the American system, like it or not. But in my opinion, when an elected official is tasked with appointing leaders, he or she owes it to the people he or she serves put forth candidates with significant experience in the departments they will oversee.

  • Because you appeared to be anti Trump. One of the reasons he was elected is because people are a little bit sick of hacks running everything. Ironic because on the other hand the anti Trump gang bitches and whines about the fact that the cabinet contains rich people. Sorry guys maybe we should have some homeless people there. There's a reason billionaires are billionaires. I'm sure some think it's because they've cheated the little man.

  • She has 0 experience working in or attending public schools.

    She's never had to worry about the student loan process

    Alright, now why is she qualified. Because to be yet to come up with a reason.

    So you are qualified? I guess that just about sums it up.

    Oh wait you're a rich kid and never really had to worry about a student loan. Cool.

    So if she took a student loan for some stupid fucking subject, like theater, and found that she couldn't get a job and couldn't pay back the loan she be qualified then?
