Ace, you have provided excellent thoughts to consider. Returning to Sailor's OP, I sincerely doubt that Bush has been well served by several political appointments that were made or recommended by his administrative staff. The exception is Bush's recommendation of Miers. I give Bush full benefit for that fubar.
Wouldn't we all love to follow Michael Brown's selection to FEMA all the way back to it's source? Congress failed in doing their job of oversight in the confirmation hearing as well.
Simply claiming that it is business as usual lacks taking any responsibility for the problem. I have posted elsewhere that I believe political cronyism can be curtailed to some extent and without great difficulty via existing governmental structures.
