Obama picks NY Republican for Army secretary
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_obama_army_secretary
"President Obama picked a Republican congressmen to be the next secretary of the Army Tuesday, bringing another member of the opposition into his administration's fold." The person Obama choose was a New york Rep. John Mchugh. Obama has stated that John is "committed to keeping America's Army the best trained the best equipped ,the best land force the world has ever seen." John has said that he is going to prepare the army for the kinds of weapons other countries have in the 21 century.John has represented upstate New York in Congress since 1993. He is also one of the highest Republican members of the House Armed Services Committee. John is very dedicated to this job and wanting the army to be prepared. "The army has always had a special place in my heart" John had stated. I choose this item because I am very interested in what Obama is going to do with the subject of war. I didn't agree with Bush's ideas of war so i wanted to compare and contrast there ideas. I agree with what Obama is doing because i believe he is a very smart man and he knows what he is doing and i have faith in him.i believe the information was presently very fairly and very understandable. I have never used the yahoo source before i wanted to try new things and get away from foxnews.com and see someone else perspective.

I like that Obama is taking the initative to mix the congress. By bringing in only democrats the opinions of various subjects would be the same. By putting in people with different views it creates a more fair and diverse congress.
