What do you think of Jim Jones as Obama's National Security Advisor?
I don't know, I'm not prepared to drink the Kool-Aid on this one just yet.... :yoiks:

But seriously, didn't he appear with McCain last summer at a campaign event? His wikipedia page says that he appeared with McCain, doesn't add more than that. I'm very wary of the foreign policy status quo types, in general, I'm not sold on him.

3. Jim Jones and Kool-Aid?
I didn't know any cult leaders were in line for a place in Obama's cabinet.

8. Could we give him a middle name....?
The kool-aid analogies will surely get old after awhile...but I'd like not to be reminded of that lunatic monster.
