CNN: Bush Plans To Install Inexperienced, Bush Loyalist Clay Johnson At Homeland Security
CNN: Bush Plans To Install Inexperienced, Bush Loyalist Clay Johnson At Homeland Security
This morning, CNN’s Suzanne Malveaux reported that “very senior level sources” inside the administration are telling her that Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff will replace Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.
Additionally, these sources say Chertoff will be replaced at Homeland Security by Clay Johnson III, the Deputy Director for Management at the Office of Management and Budget. Watch it:
Johnson, who has no homeland security experience, is a professional Bush loyalist. While Johnson may have familiarity with some aspects of DHS’s budget, he appears to have no experience in the many responsibilities of the department, including immigration, air travel security, disaster response, and other aspects of our nation’s homeland defense.
He is one of Bush’s oldest friends, having attended both prep school and college with the President. Johnson served as Bush’s gubernatorial chief of staff in Texas before heading up the Bush-Cheney transition team.
When Bush first chose Johnson as his chief of staff in Texas, he said it was specifically because of his friend’s loyalty to him:
“I want someone whose primary interest is me — George Bush — and who doesn’t hope to parlay this into something and isn’t trying to curry favor with this one or that one,” Bush told Johnson and his wife, Anne Sewell Johnson, over lunch.
Asked about his relationship to Bush, Johnson told the New York Times recently that “there’s a lot of devotion to George Bush the person.” Johnson, who “is probably the only person to have spanked” the president’s dog, Barney, “keeps a George Bush doll on his desk.”
Clay Johnson appears to bring the same qualifications to Homeland Security that Alberto Gonzales brought to the Justice Department.

…and a box of tissues in the top drawer.
August 27th, 2007 at 10:24 amLast week I jokingly said that Bush would appoint FEMA-flop, Michael Brown to head DHS. Looks like he fundamentally did.
August 27th, 2007 at 10:24 ami would be surprised if they put someone in WITH experience!
August 27th, 2007 at 10:24 amSenator Reid – are you going to let Caligula put ‘Homeland Security’ in the hands of his horse?
August 27th, 2007 at 10:25 amIt is scientific fact that democrats dont appoint cronies like republicans do.
August 27th, 2007 at 10:26 amMore of the same…
August 27th, 2007 at 10:27 am“I want someone whose primary interest is me — George Bush — and who doesn’t hope to parlay this into something and isn’t trying to curry favor with this one or that one,†Bush told Johnson and his wife, Anne Sewell Johnson, over lunch.
That same conversation has probably been repeated over the weekend. GDumbya is a narcissistic fool who has surrounded himself with arse-kissers and “yes”-men.
Here we go again.
August 27th, 2007 at 10:27 amI bet the George Bush doll is hollow, and full of bourbon, like a redneck’s boda bag.
For midday inspiration, he picks it up and takes a little pull off the tiny little spout.
And oh yes, the tissues per dlet.
August 27th, 2007 at 10:27 amOh…so that’s it–the agreement with Reid was to not replace Gonzo with a recess appointment. But this guy most certainly will get the free pass. I can’t see anyone with no experience getting the nod from Congress. Or is DHS director not subject to Congressional approval?
August 27th, 2007 at 10:28 amIs there anyone in the Bush adm who isn’t an old crony?
August 27th, 2007 at 10:28 amFriends, loyalists, frat brothers, etc.
Has he appointed anyone with qualifications and experience?

August 27th, 2007 at 10:41 amThat’s what we need protecting our shores, someone who thinks spanking is effective with a dog. But what is it with Barney suddenly becoming the focus of this White House. Rove leaves and calls Barney names, and now we’re supposed to be impressed that this crony spanked Barney. Do we really have a Scottie running our country?
August 27th, 2007 at 10:42 amJohnson has no experience!! Is there anyone in or connected to the White House that knows what the hell is going on???

August 27th, 2007 at 10:59 amIt is extremely telling that Bush would rather have a yes-boy in this critical position than anyone with any experience doing it.

Smart move by Bush.
Now with Chertoff is in charge, the Senate Judiciary Committee will be all silent.
August 27th, 2007 at 11:01 amSenators like Fienstien, Schumer,Specter,Lieberman…will never criticise their buddy Chertoff..and they will approve him in no time.

August 27th, 2007 at 11:03 amYou know, it could be that Dubya just doesn’t know how to cast a net. Remember when he did his search for somebody to appoint to the Supreme Court and at the conclusion of his “search” he came up with…Harriett Miers? Apparently he did a thorough search for the most qualified candidate within 100 feet of his office.
And now he’s done it again. He’s done a thorough search for the most qualified person to run Homeland Security solely within his circle of cronies.
Maybe the reason he’s failed so much in his business ventures is that he never knew how to look for and hire qualified people?
August 27th, 2007 at 11:04 amTotally off topic, but what’s with Souzonne Malveaux’s first name?

Are you sure about that? It was a “little-known provision” in the Patriot Act (get used to that phrase — we’ll be hearing it a lot) that allowed that “interim” appointments of U.S. Attorneys could be of any duration, effectively allowing the Prez to appoint anyone he wanted to these positions without any confirmation.
I’m curious if there are any “little-known provisions” that allow for recess appointments of cabinet positions with no time limits.

I HAVE one. Seems to be slightly successful, to date.
August 27th, 2007 at 11:10 amHas anyone heard confirmation on the Clay Johnson thing? I have this feeling they have floated this name out there to draw outrage, so that everyone will draw sigh of relief when he names someone only slightly less odious. The MTA does that in NYC all the time with fare increases–they announce that they need to make a HUGE one first, and then scale back to the merely large one and all the sheep never notice because they are so happy it didn’t jump the full amout.
August 27th, 2007 at 11:12 amClayJohnson was previously President of Horchow Mail Order and President of Neiman Marcus Mail Order, the Deputy Director/Chief Operating Officer of the Dallas Museum of Art, and held positions at Frito-Lay and Wilson Sporting Goods.

This reminds me of a religious cult. These people around Bush are expected to worship him (”a LOT of devotion”). They have religious icons (the doll) of Bush that they pray to. Bush is their number one interest, as opposed to the people of the United States (Bush is their one true god and they forsake all others).

Clearly only Bush is allowed to use other people as stepping stones. Only Bush is allowed to parlay a series of failures, including the failure of four businesses into a State Governorship and then the Presidency. That’s because Bush of course is a great monkey god and is to be worshipped selflessly and without ulterior motive. A true believer must serve and be prepared to throw his professional life away for the Chimp.
August 27th, 2007 at 1:55 pmIt’s time for the Democrats to step up to the plate and refuse to confirm any more Bush cronies for posts in the Bush government. If they don’t, they will not be acting to their own best interests because the American public is sick and tired of Bush politicizing our government.
August 27th, 2007 at 2:03 pmPlease everybody fax and write your congress persons and let them know that this is why bush is nominating him. Send them this quote. This must be stopped.
For some reason our congress is less informed than we are. It seems to be our duty to inform them.
August 27th, 2007 at 2:06 pm“I want someone whose primary interest is me — George Bush”
Excuse me, but aren’t these people supposed to be working for us, you know “we the people”? This is exactly what is wrong with this country now, everyone Bush has hired works for him and not for us. It’s time for this to stop. So, Democrats, step up to the plate and do the right thing. Do not allow Bush to install any more cronies in the government.
August 27th, 2007 at 2:08 pmSo, Bush is finally elevating his Johnson. Maybe he’s trying to send a message.
August 27th, 2007 at 2:33 pmwhy the hell is an accountant heading up the DHS? What a crock.
August 27th, 2007 at 2:46 pmWell, that is understandable. Bush and Cheney operate on the principle that loyalty der Fuehrerprinzip is more important than any oath to defend the Constitution of these United States. Are any of you surprised???
August 27th, 2007 at 4:11 pmre #107:
No, don’t you remember in July when Sara Taylor said, “I took an oath to the President, and I take that oath very seriously”? They serve for the greater glory of their god-king, not the unwashed masses.
August 27th, 2007 at 7:24 pmGod help us all. I just wonder what local Democratic official Republicans will blame the next time “Homeland Security” fails the American people like they did in Louisiana/Mississippi/Alabama after Katrina.
I just feel so safe living in a possible hurricane affected state knowing another Bush crony with zero emergency or homeland security experience is keeping my family safe.
August 27th, 2007 at 9:22 pmI find it laughable that the same crew that routinely attacks women and minorities for alleged racial preferences & as being “unqualified”, indulges in promoting such preference daily at the highest levels of governance in America. Bush has a long list of dumb white boys & not so bright girls (ever hear of Arabian Horse Man Michael Brown running FEMA) running our nations Homeland Security and other critical agencies at a time when America needs experts and grown-ups overseeing our security. Clay Johnson running DHS, is like me putting my college sorority sister (who I drank a lot with) in charge of the nation’s nuclear power plants. Whatever, this is who we are in America. Dumb, Frat white boys like Bush run the world, and sadly they probably always will.
