Smells like the same old shit to me.
There is absolutely no — zero, zip, nada — NO reason to keep criminals like Robert Mueller, Ben Bernanke, and Michael Mullen; these Republicans are part of the most corrupt band of thugs to ever occupy America’s executive branch of government and they will seek to undermine everything that a Democratic administration could and should want to implement.
Then again, Obama hasn’t really seemed all that interested in being a Democrat, has he? He cares more about being a “centrist” (meaning he wants to play both parties against each other so that neither has any leverage against him).
