No to all that. I liked Tillerson. Thought he'd be a voice of reason in a house I assumed would be a little emotional. Your LinkedIn article doesn't convince me a guy who had enuff between the ears to run a global multinational couldn't hang with the cool kids in DC.RaceBannon said:

Wait. There have been inexperienced people in Troomp's cabinet? Like, for real?RaceBannon said:slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/war_stories/2017/01/rex_tillerson_s_nomination_to_head_the_state_department_faces_scrutiny.html
The near-unanimous view, even among his supporters, is that Tillerson himself did no favors in that hearing. He came before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee with heavy baggage. As longtime chairman and CEO of Exxon Mobil, the world’s largest oil company, he had cut deals with tyrants; maneuvered against the interests of U.S. foreign policy; and enjoyed especially close ties with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who had awarded him an Order of Friendship medal.
Several senators and their staffs, expecting to engage with a worldly sage regardless of what else they might think of him, came out of the hearing surprised at how little Tillerson knew about high-profile foreign policy issues. (He had been offered, but turned down, a briefing from the State Department.) Some chafed at his apparent lack of concern for human rights in several countries where he’d done business. And a few were appalled by his deceptive testimony on Exxon Mobil’s lobbying practices.
PS: Tillerson will take a shit later on today that has more business acumen than Troomp. Maybe he sucked as SOS. Maybe he didn't. Don't know. Trump hired him. He was who we thought he was. An oil man. Next.
The left hated Tillerson before they loved him. He was a stooge for Putin before he wasn't
You did help prove the point so thanks for that
Maybe have another drink and enjoy the vacay and we'll talk when you get back -

We must be nearing the end of times. I have chinned or upvoted Salem at least 20 times in the last two weeks.salemcoog said:
