Lynn uniquely qualified for new role

It is disingenuous to announce strict rules regarding lobbyists and then waive them for an appointment. Obama has nominiated a former Ratheon lobbyist for the Deputy Defense Secretary.

A quality leader is careful to implement rules because they will live by the same rules. President Obama is clearly stating that rules and policy that he sets forth is good for everyone else, but he is above them. This is not a mark of a good leader, and shows a lack of integrity. It's probably his political upbringing in the corrupt Chicago area shining through.

I hope the press keeps the pressure on him.

Lynn's nomination raised some eyebrows, but he could be the best suited for deputy defense secretary.
