And, if that's not enough, Hills can always petition the Bush "gummermint" for a bailout check. They just give them away - a billion here, a lost 2.3 trillion there. Who cares? It's not their money.

President-elect Barack Obama announced Monday that Robert Gates would remain as defense secretary, making President Bush's Pentagon chief his own as he seeks to wind down the U.S. role in Iraq. Obama picked former campaign rival Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of state.

President-elect Barack Obama is filling his Cabinet at record speed, choosing loyal friends and one-time foes to guide his wartime foreign policy decisions.

That's easy to do when your under the gun.
