    Transition: From Bush's Texas Cronies To Obama's Chicago Mafia: No Change We Can BElieve In

    It sounds like Obama may be the third Bush term - as the transition goes from Bush's Texas Cronies to Obama's Chicago Mafia. 

    We had Karl "Bush's Brain" Rove, Karen Hughes, Scott "Turncoat" McClellan, Alberto "Gonzo" Gonzales, failed Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers and of course, "You're Doing a Heckuva Job" Brownie.  Their hallmark and calling cards were too much or too little loyalty and too much incompetence. 

    It looks like Barack Obama now is assembling his own posse who it would seem are more of the thug variety.  There is Rahm Rambo "the Republicans can go f*k themselves" Emanuel who is in the pocket of Wall Street by receiving greatest number of donations and a Freddie Mac director during its scandal period, David "ASK" Axelrod of ASK Public Strategies that helps companies tilt public opinion their way whose other side business is and David Plouffe.

    Then there is Valerie Jarrett, Chicago political machine operative and slum developer as CEO of Habitat Company.  The failure of Grove Parc in Chicago is a sobering view of her incompetence.   

    Axelrod will be at the White House to be Obama's Karl Rove - no doubt to ensure a permanent Democratic majority and Emanuel will be the gatekeeper to make sure that Obama doesn't hear from the folks or the Congress.  Sounds familiar... Unchanged We Can't Believe In.
