Rahmbo Takes Obama Post

CNN:

Illionis Rep. Rahm Emanuel, a former Clinton administration aide, has accepted the position of President-elect Obama’s chief of staff, a Democratic aide tells CNN.

Cue the WATBs:

After reports that Emanuel had agreed to be Obama’s chief of staff on Thursday, the top Republican in the House, Rep. John Boehner of Ohio, questioned the president-elect’s pick.

"This is an ironic choice for a president-elect who has promised to change Washington, make politics more civil, and govern from the center," Boehner said.

Translation: MOMMMMMMMMY!

I do love it when Republicans plea for civility. Makes me laugh every time.
