more from NBC: Donald Trump is expected to nominate ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson as his secretary of state, two sources close to the transition process told NBC News on Saturday. Tillerson will be paired with former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton as his deputy secretary of state, one of the sources added, with Bolton handling day-to-day management of the department. The sources cautioned that nothing is final until the president-elect officially announces it http://www.nbcnews.com/politic...-s-secretary-n694371 | |||

I think DT has bigger things for his friend Rudy so I'm not disappointed he isn't SecState he is going to need someone on the outside to tackle 'special' projects and Rudy is the perfect person to take on some of these issues so he's not done yet [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

Awesome dynamic duo. Rush had a lot of great things to say about Tillerson on Friday's show. And I don't mean his name being apropos to an Oil CEO or his "Hollywood" good looks either which Rush teased about

Bolton as the number two won't need Senate approval, right? I love it. | |||

Excellent point. I hadn't thought of that. . | |||

No, he will require confirmation. All the Deputies, Assistant Secretaries, Deputy Assistant Secretaries, Ambassadors, etc. are advice and consent officers. A lot more, actually. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

I heard that Bolton would not accept the number two spot. Hopefully that was not an accurate statement. ~Alan Acta Non Verba NRA Life Member (Patron) God, Family, Guns, Country Men will fight and die to protect women... because women protect everything else. ~Andrew Klavan | |||

I'd rather it be the other way around. I think that you need someone skilled in diplomacy at the top and a great businessman running the office. Unfortunately, he'd never get through confirmation. To even talk to Romney, I think, was a mistake. He would have made a decent President, but he is not suited for any other federal political office. Rudy, as well, would have been a poor choice although I can't really articulate why well. There's just something about him that I don't like and don't trust. And, as above, his experience is as a prosecutor and a Mayor. He has no diplomatic experience that I know of. And, as much of a wuss as he seems to be, Huntsman wouldn't be a bad choice either. He's also got a smoking hot daughter, so there's that.... ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

A hundred of us here have said it probably a thousand times now...(ok a bit of exaggeration). Watching Zippy literally get steamrolled and shoved aside is giving me great satisfaction. It seems every day now he is being held up as a failure...and he has nothing to counter. Its quite satisfying. -------------------------------------- "There are things we know.

I've met and talked with Tillerson. He is as smooth as a baby's butt, very impressive. He'll do just fine. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

http://nypost.com/2016/12/10/d...d-at-army-navy-game/ Donald Trump raucously cheered at Army-Navy game short video at link President-elect Donald Trump was greeted with cheers and jumping cadets at the annual Army-Navy football game in Baltimore. The incoming president waved to the crowd from outside a private box as he arrived at the stadium during the first quarter of the storied rivalry. Trump was inside the box of a West Point graduate and planned to spend the second half in the box of retired Marine Lt. Col. Oliver North. He was joined by former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, incoming White House chief of staff Reince Priebus and top adviser Steve Bannon. | |||

Indeed!! Elk There has never been an occasion where a people gave up their weapons in the interest of peace that didn't end in their massacre.

| Oh stewardess, I speak jive.  |
Neither Romney nor Rudy would have been good choices for SecState. Thank goodness those two weren't selected, and I like Rudy - but that role made no sense at all, and Romney doesn't deserve that degree of a promotion after his recent asshattery. #winning | |||
