Ray
LaHood - Council of Economic Advisers
Born
in 1945, LaHood was only the second token Republican Obama left in place in the
cabinet. Like Secretary of Defense Robert
Gates, Obama is simply using them as a pretense of bipartisanship.
LaHood
has had a lackluster political career. Unlike Gates, he is in a cabinet position
that is of little importance. Obama will dump both of them when it is convenient
for him to do so.
About the only thing good about LaHood is that his presence
annoys Obama's liberal supporters.
