May have missed any discussion about these people but here is a link that talks about a bunch of stuff...I've listed a few on the list, but there are lots more at the link. Looks like he is padding the FEC board with his cronies and, as usual, putting UNqualified cronies into jobs.

Hans Von Spakovsky, of Georgia, to be a Member of the Federal Election Commission.
Julie L. Myers, of Kansas, to be Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security (Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement).

Check out the first guy's history:
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Hans_von_Spakovsky"In 1997, von Spakovsky wrote an article for the Georgia Public Policy Foundation, a conservative research group, that called for an aggressive campaign to 'purge' the election rolls of felons. Within months of that article’s publication, the V.I.P. helped
put von Spakovsky’s idea into action. Phillips met with the company that designed the process for the removal of alleged felons from the voting rolls in Florida, a process that led, notoriously, to the mistaken disenfranchisement of thousands of voters, most of them Democratic, before the 2000 election," Toobin wrote. "During the thirty-six-day recount in Florida, von Spakovsky worked there as a volunteer for the Bush campaign. After the Inauguration, he was hired as an attorney in the Voting Section and was soon promoted to be counsel to the Assistant Attorney General, in what is known as the 'front office' of the Civil Rights Division. In that position, von Spakovsky, who is forty-five years old, has become an important voice in the Voting Section. (Von Spakovsky, citing Justice Department policy, has also declined repeated requests to be interviewed.)
And the woman's:
http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Julie_L._Myers"'It appears she's got a tremendous amount of experience in money laundering, in banking and the financial areas,' said
Charles Showalter, president of the National Homeland Security Council, a union that represents 7,800 ICE agents, officers and support staff. 'My question is: Who the hell is going to enforce the immigration laws?',"
