Obama's Top Mouthpiece Goes Under the Bus
2009-11-13
I hadn't heard of anyone on the right complaining about Craig, so I suspect this is a leftist scalp...

The news release does say that Craig has been expected to go, but it rather craftily leaves no asides.

White House Counsel Greg Craig is expected to announce on Friday that he plans to step down from his post following a rocky tenure, people familiar with the matter said.

#5  Will Anita "Mao's my main man" Dunn's husband Robert Bauer replace Craig?.

Yep.
In the first shakeup of the Obama White House, counsel Greg Craig resigned Friday and was replaced by President Barack Obama's personal lawyer, Bob Bauer.

In the words of the immortal Trashmen: Mao, Mao, Mao.

#2  The public announcement is crap.

Craig did not agree with Bambi's decision to try KSM and company in civilian court.

I think Bambi's fall will be percepitated by the circus that the KSM trial will become. Such niceties as Miranda warnings and torture and waterboarding and classified sources and having covert CIA operatives having to blow their cover to testify, etc.,

The man really has no clue and these trials will be the death knell for Bambi's presidency, he will be the longest lame duck in the history of this country.
