Corrupt Cabinet in need of reform

Abstract:
The Obama administration has produced some interesting characters far from qualified to lead the nation. One wonders how so many of these radicals made it into the president's administration.

Well, Timothy Lantz, you'd make a much better preacher than article writer. This article has the tone of a polemic or propaganda rather than an informative article.

For example, the tone of the line "So, essentially Obama, God's gift to the world, can appoint any old crony he feels is qualified without having to seek Senate approval." is completely off base for the kind of tone a newspaper article should have. It's sarcastic, bitter, and unsubstantiated. Similarly, "sarcastic, bitter, and unsubstantiated" could easily describe the article as a whole. This may be an article in "Campus Talk", but its purpose should still be informative, whether that means informing people of what happened in the latest cabinet appointments, or informing others about your opinions and why you hold them. Instead, this comes off as a 770 word article of pure slander.

P.S. The photo in the article of Kevin Jennings kind of reminds me of the actor Simon Baker. That is all.
