The very best politicians surround themselves with people that can offer differing views than their own.Engrish_Major

Go ahead and keep making up excuses to capture an image that Obama is a magnificent man. The fact at hand does not change he was ranting about change and so on he still CHOSE a man who is a Bushlite.

Obama offered the highest position in his cabinet staff who is pro-Bush and a warmonger. What does that tell you about Obama's character? It means he WILL continue Bush policies with a liberal twist.

No it doesn't. Would you rather have a president that surrounds himself with a bunch of yes-men that agree with him on everything, and get rid of dissenting viewpoints? (wait, that sounds familiar...)

That's not true, he chose Emanuel because he wanted to continue Bush policies. If he truly wanted a moderate he could had picked one but no, he didn't.

what are you worried about

just wait and see what happens first, you're jumping to conclusions

Ultimate-Playa

His voting record shows he IS a moderate. Where is your info coming from? Solely from the fact that he supported the war?

On the night after the Clinton election, "Emanuel was so angry at the president's enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign, grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting 'Dead! ... Dead! ... Dead!' and plunging the knife into the table after every name."His "take-no-prisoners attitude" earned him the nickname "Rahm-bo".

That's sure is someone I would want to associate with! Haha!

Obama is the epitome of change! Right...not. I see so many Obama fanbois here, pity. Obama is only a liberal side of Bush and a new face but in fact they are virtually the same.

You jump to alot of conclusions...

Dude, I can't stand Obama and even I'm relieved by hearing about Emanuel. Remember, absolute power corrupts absolute. If one side is always pushing their views with no opposition, you can have a very dangerous situation. There needs to be checks and balances in this country and just because one side is in the minority doesn't mean you push them aside cause you don't agree with them.

This country was founded on the principle of defending the minority and the rule of law, not mob rule.

You jump to alot of conclusions...

Ofcourse Emanuel is pro-Bush because Bush is the president and he has to support what Bush supports. Now Obama will be the president, what makes you think Emanuel is going to stay pro-Bush when Bush policies will be no more? Plus you act like people can't CHANGE.

Well if a qualified professor of constituional law and US senator is your definition of an idiot then what are you?

Someone isn't going to change their policies because of the current President.

You can agree to disagree and still work together.
