For all the right wing-nut Republicans howling about Barack Obama radically steering the government to the left and leading the nation toward socialism, some of his major appointments are Republican men and women of the middle.
Some of the former Bush appointees or republicans who Obama kept are: 1. Fed chief Ben Bernanke,2. Defense Secretary Robert Gates, 3. Sheila Bair as holdover chairwoman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp, 4. Ray LaHood, a former congressman from Illinois, as Transportation Secretary, 5. former Rep. John McHugh from upstate New York, as Army Secretary, 6. Former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, who was a Mormon missionary in China in his youth, as ambassador to China, 7. while not a republican, certainly a moderate in Francis Collins, an evangelical Christian, as director of the National Institutes of Health. The party just can't refrain from lying because that is all they have. So Sad!
