The word is that Obama will pick Arizona governor Janet Napolitano to head the department of homeland security. And in one simple but smart move, the Bush-created department that has for seven years existed without a raison d'etre is given new life and new purpose. It will - get this! - protect the homeland! The queen of a border land will now be queen of borders.
MAKES SENSE, NO?
It's a small move, but symbolic of how far from competence the Bush administration has been for these many years. Even though so much good can be done with a pragmatic (as opposed to ideological) spirit, some clear headed people, and a bit of dedicated thinking about basics, the present administration 'process' never considered these virtues.
Anyway, it's nice to see the return of plain American solutions driven competence...
...and (somewhat similarly) the rise of an American leader who can't imagine life without his blackberry.
MY GOD - HE'S ONE OF US!
