President-elect Barack Obama pivoted quickly to begin filling out his new administration on Wednesday, selecting hard-charging Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel as White House chief of staff

while aides stepped up the pace of transition work that had been cloaked in pre-election secrecy.

I REPEAT WE DO NOT WANT RAAAAAAHHHHHHM TOUCHING OUR PRESIDENTS AGENDAS!

So pleaswe! Will someone just dart “the hard chargin’ Emanuel” and relocate the bastard to the Siberian Tundra, so we can all finally get some fu***ng sleep!
