Rocky Road for the Messiah! The B. Hussein Obama Transition Progress Report

cartoon-obama.jpgOr is DOH!Bama now? Maybe Obama and his team are smarter than we want to give them credit for. Look at all the additional tax revenue he is generating by nominating prominent Democrats to high positions. I figure Charles Rangel and Marc Rich should be nominated soon. At this rate, we can balance the federal budget in no time. Anyway onto Michelle Malkin’s syndicated column:

You never get a second chance to make a first post-inaugural impression. Less than three weeks into his first 100 days, Barack Obama has left an indelible mark on his nascent presidency: The mark of incompetence and hubris. Despite the administration’s much-touted wealth of bright minds and high bars, the transition has been a complete disaster.

In a double whammy on Tuesday, tax troubles and ethical clouds forced the withdrawal of not one, but two, high-profile Obama nominees. These come on the heels of former Commerce Secretary nominee Bill Richardson’s withdrawal due to a pay-for-play probe in New Mexico and Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s “tax goofs” involving failure to pay $43,000 in federal self-employment taxes for four separate years – until, that is, he was nominated for his Obama post. Thorough vetting, it seems, is an inconvenient process – a pesky “distraction,” if you will — in the Land of Hope and Change.

You may of course have a different opinion of the Messiah’s transition. You can cast your vote in the eD Morrissey AOL poll.
