#12  Amit Yurin the DHS cyberczar leaves, now tom ridge, my company tries to do some work with DHS but all the funding has been canceled, basically DHS has no clout without money, their basically laying off people to stay operational, most of the security money is went to the military.

#11  I would imagine a calm, sure, steady demeanor, on top of the rest of the list of qualifications, would be a requisite characteristic for a person in this position.

#10  Zell would be my choice just for entertainment value. Jamie Gorelick jumping on a table, rending her garments in a snarl while Pelosi's eyes actually bug so far out they drop...whooo boyyyy that would be fun!

#7  At the risk of sounding like a broken record, this is a splendid opportunity for W to put a Democrat in his cabinet. For example, Zell Miller.

#4  It's a poisoned chalice. Probably the shittiest job in Washington.

#3  Among those mentioned as possible candidates for Ridge's replacement are Bernard Kerik [interim Minister of the Interior for Iraq and former New York City police commissioner], Federal Emergency Management Agency Director Joe Allbaugh and Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Mike Leavitt and White House homeland security adviser Fran Townsend. Others are also believed to be interested in the job, including Asa Hutchinson, undersecretary for border and transportation security in the Homeland Security Department.

Asa Hutchinson would be a terrible choice. I'm not even sure he knows that we have a southern border.
