His appointments are riddled with crooks, gays, tranny's, lesbo's, and blacks, you name it. The single most important criteria is that they must complete shills and sycophants who are willing to let him lie and they call it the truth. He surrounds himself with the ultimate in 'yes' people. Hard to get folks more deeply in the tank than Kerry and Hagel. He wants people around him that are blind loyal to HIM and HIM ONLY.
While all Pres try to appoint good folks a few fall into the trap of appointing loyal but incompetents. A study of Jimmy Carter shows that is exactly what he did and they were a major contribution to his failure. But Obammy has taken it to a new level. In fact in modern times the only one who IMO rivals Obammy in his appointments at the fringes was...Hitler. A look at who he appointed and you see the same 'zealot' loyalty to Hitler as to Obammy. The shock of reality toward the end of the war came about due to his sycophants kept the failures from him until it was too late...IMO this will happen to Obammy if my thinking that we will collapse within 4 years.
