Loyalty does not equal competance Part II

The President does have one huge blind spot in his leadership style, loyalty. First you had Harriet Myers as a Supreme Court nominee, then Alberto Gonzales as AG.

I know you always want to have 'your people' in crucial roles, but they better have the skill set and the communication skills for the job. Being a behind the scenes advisor is much different than being in the hot seat where you are held responsible for every decision you make.

It seems Gonzales is gone and I am not upset at all.
