Amid the furor over controversies regarding Cabinet-nominee tax problems and the seismic battle over a nearly trillion-dollar economic rescue bill, President Obama made a little-noticed appointment that is now generating intrigue.
Shauna Daly, a 29-year-old Democratic operative, was named last month to the new job of White House counsel research director. Though she is inside one of the most powerful legal offices in the land, Miss Daly holds no law degree and doesn't list any legal training on her resume.
Her sole experience has been as an opposition researcher for Democratic political campaigns: She helped dig up dirt on rivals, or on her own nominee to prepare for attacks. - Washington Times
"Daly does not have the qualifications to be holding a significant position in the White House counsel's office," said Mark Levin, a conservative lawyer and radio-show host who worked in the Reagan White House and as chief of staff for Attorney General Edwin Meese.
"Her only qualification is that she knows how to dig up dirt on other people," he said.- Washington Times
Has President Obama turned to the low down Politics that are famous from Illionis? Creating a position in the Administration that is all about digging up the dirt on the opposition? The Obama people aren't talking and they aren't letting her talk either. hmmmmmmm Looks pretty interesting.
