Josef.. Powell is already getting flak from his own party for not being "ideological enough".. I didnt know that was a necessary part of the criteria to be able to run a department.. yeesh.. he's the only Republican at the moment i have any amt of respect for or thinking he will be fair-minded about things.. and it already looks like they're going to try and rein him in or probably cut him loose in a couple of years. I'd like your opinion on what this article says about him

"Powell Wows The Help, But Not All Republicans Cheering"

Already conservative Republicans, including some influential staffers on Capitol Hill, are complaining that Powell's
choices for the top jobs are not sufficiently ideological. (He has been trying to recruit good managers.) Frank
Gaffney, a hard-line GOP foreign policy maven, has lost no time writing an op-ed piece attacking the
administration's China policy."
