Smart move
Obama has appointed Susan Rice, whoever she is, to some major position. Very smart move. Since the Repooflicans have a weird fetishistic hatred against Rice, this will keep them fully occupied every millisecond of every second of every hour of every day of every month of every year SLAMMING AND SMASHING the one word she mispronounced. Or whatever it is they HATE HATE HATE about Susan Rice, whoever she is. I've never managed to comprehend the whole mess.
Obama can now get something done without interference from the Repoofs. It's even
conceivable that a mildly beneficial action might be among the things he gets done; but in any case this is good strategy.

The following is a
strong and serious and heartfelt sentiment, emphatically not meant as irony or parody, though it might sound like parody.
The best thing about Obama is what he doesn't get done. Unlike all Presidents in living memory, he's a reticent and cautious introvert. Unlike Bush, he allowed oil drilling to grow and flourish. Unlike Bush, he allowed new nuclear plants to be ACTUALLY BUILT. Unlike Bush, he doesn't invade every country that displeases Israel. Reticence has a bad side: Obama has also allowed the Jew Mafia to continue stealing trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions from the poor. But given a choice between a manic aggressive Goldman slave versus a depressive hesitant Goldman slave, I'd rather have the depressive hesitant Goldman slave. (Ideally I'd want to see an American leading the country, but that choice isn't in the cards.)
