We have a Treasury Secretary who doesn't mind not giving his fair share to the Treasury, and a (almost) Commerce Secretary who wouldn't mind if his job didn't exist.

That's a plus to me. Hopefully he'll just take his check and lay low.

I don't even know the job of Commerce Secretary. What does he do?

I'd like to see Gregg play Obama for a prick, and withdraw his nomination. "If you don't think I can be trusted to do the job you offered to me, then perhaps you should select another candidate."

Greenspan wasn't an elected official voting to abolish the Federal Reserve before being appointed to be Chairman.
