Listening to Randi

[lapfog_1]

And she is talking about alternatives to Gates...

But isn't there a law about how soon a retired military person can come back into the government as SecDef ?

I thought there was.

Not that her names aren't good picks.

Or am I ignorant on the subject?

1. There is a rule, but I don't think it would apply to him!

3. Apply to who?

Gates is a civilian.

Randi was trotting out a whole list of recently retired generals as alternatives to Gates.

But other than Clark (who has been out now, what 8 years?) all of the names listed retired in the last 5 years.

I don't know the rule, but I think she doesn't know about it.
