I am praying against Larry Summers for Treasury Secretary. I just can't stand to hear him speak. Does he actually speak, ever, or just bloviate? A pursed-lips version of John Kerry. The two of them are hotly pursuing Dan Rather for title of Most Pompous Speaker in America.

I love Valerie Jarrett, but can't somebody talk to her about that hair?

(And save the sexism comments. Every time I see her, that's the thought screaming through my head, drowning out the first lines she speaks. So I'm saying it. No, we don't talk about men's hairstyles very often, but how many do they really have? Same with men's clothing. They're fucking boring. What can you say about a freaking business suit, aside from it fitting horribly, like John McCain's.)

Rahm Emanuel is a total dick, isn't he?

That's not necessarily a bad thing in a chief of staff. Obama needs someone to crack the whip, and with Rahm playing bad cop with gusto, that leaves Barack to play good.

But God. I am not looking forward to 4-8 years of hearing him. Rahm seemed particularly bitchy with his old buddy George Stephanopoulos on This Week this morning. He would not answer a single question, not even close, and his evasions hardly appeared necessary. It seemed like a point of pride to be as nasty and evasive as possible.

Blech. I'm glad I'm not working in that white house. I hope they keep him off my television. I think they'll be wise to.

He may be good for the country, but what a dick.
