Two things re: Susan Rice. Actually three things. [View all]

1. She has not yet been appointed to the job.

2. The lame duck congress will not be the congress confirming her appointment.

3. I think it was Richard Wolff yesterday who said that the President would have the number of votes necessary for confirmation.

I'm starting to think that this bunch of crap has more to do with stacking the Senate and detracting from this tax/fiscal hiccup/bump/hill/curve/slope/cliff/precipice/whatever thingy.

Let's get a grip and focus.
