Perry is doing better here than he ever did in either of his presidential campaigns.

For all the jokes about "oops" I actually don't think he's a terrible choice for Energy

Moniz is a nuclear physicist.  Perry barely graduated college.  The department of Energy is in charge of the nuclear energy.  Do you want the guy from Dancing with the stars in charge?

You ignore the fact he was a successful Governor for literally almost 15 years. Dancing with the Stars is meaningless, you act like that is his only accomplishment.

That's your opinion.  But even if what you say is true, that doesn't mean he's qualified to lead the Dept. of Energy.

That's not your decision to make.

No, but according to the U.S. Constitution I have the right to express my opinion and criticize the corrupt idiot that made the decision.

I'm sure that given a little time, the Pussygrabber administration will describe that as "fake news" and present their "alternative facts" about what the Constitution really means.

Why would they be?  This position is supposed to transcend the standard political appointment process.

The FBI has a set term. Hillary couldn't have dumped him even if she won and desired too.

The President can remove the FBI director. It says so in that article.

Correct.  I would be quite toxic to do so, however.
