Interesting - the whole electoral system based on an outdated agricultural economy could use a makeover
in order to speed the whole transition - but that a whole other discussion.
It's not just the liberals calling for immediate action. Republican utility hitter James Baker
(Reagan & G. Bush Chief of Staff, Sec.of Treasury, Secof State etc...) said on Meet The Press this morning
that they should go ahead and move Tim Geithner into Treasury now instead of waiting until January.
He also had lots of nice things to say about Obamas cabinet selections including Hillary
but he might be trolling for a job with the dems.

When "Bush's Folly" was 1st announced Donald Rumsfeld was saying that the cost of the war would be under $50 billion. Learned analysts were saying that the cost would be about $350 billion or more.
When asked about this at the time Rumsfeld response was "Baloney." He said that the people quoting that figure of $350 billion were purposely trying to mislead the American public.

One of your liberals wants to just do away with the Constitution and induct Obama tomorrow.

"Putting Barack Obama in charge immediately isn’t impossible. Dick Cheney, obviously, would have to quit as well as Bush. In fact, just to be on the safe side, the vice president ought to turn in his resignation first. (We’re desperate, but not crazy.) Then House Speaker Nancy Pelosi would become president until Jan. 20. Obviously, she’d defer to her party’s incoming chief executive, and Barack Obama could begin governing."
Your guy is still President and still doing nothing but handing out free money to Wall Street and various banks. Are you happy with that?
WHAT?! Sorry buddy, but he couldn't and didn't do it alone. A Democratic controlled Congress is heavily involved in the hand outs too.
