President Bush is appointing Andrew Natsios as special envoy to Darfur to get things back on track.

Who is Andrew Natsios?

– As director of U.S. Agency for International Development Natsios promised that the U.S. contribution to reconstruction of Iraq would be no more that $1.6 billion. Congress has already appropriated nearly $20 billion for reconstruction in Iraq. The CBO estimates the total cost of reconstruction will be between $50 and $100 billion.

– Natsios was the manager of Boston’s “Big Dig,” widely considered one of the most mismanaged public works projects in history.

The incompetence continues as an art form in the Bush adminstration.

I'm against incompetence, but I'd like to make a joke here.

At least Darfur will get the money it needs and George Cloony will be happy.

You might want to do a little digging.

This should excite you! He is a critic now: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11965317/site/newsweek/

And yet Bush hires him for a new job. I'd say good job Bush. Glad someone is finally doing something.
