Prezbama's Chief of Staff: We Approve!

080403_na01_wide-horizontal

As soon as Obama picked his new chief of staff, UTB wasted no time (give or take a weekend) in appointing Dennie Zastrow to evaluate the prez-elect's pick.  Zastrow weighs in, below.

Alright, so Obama just got elected and everyone is flipping out and the world is rainbows and butterflies and unicorns.  You know what makes it better?  I’ll tell you:  Rahm.  Emanuel.  Chief of Staff.

It seriously doesn’t get any better than this.  He’s the definition of a political bad ass.  He’ll probably kill some congressmen and bury them in the Rose Garden.  Not even kidding.

Personally, I think he’s a great choice.  He’s an amazing political operative who knows his way around Washington.  He gets results.  That’s exactly what the White House needs right now.  And to all the Republicans who say that this is a partisan move on Obama’s part, this is what I say to you:  suck it.

Eight years of Bush the Younger has given a new definition to partisan politics.  It’s our turn now.  And it’s going to be awesome.  Like really awesome.  High School Musical 3:  Senior Year awesome (in my book that’s huge).

And if you need more to convince you, Rahm Emanuel has nine fingers.  And he’s kind of hot for an older guy.  And his brother was the inspiration for Ari Gold on Entourage.  That’s all you really need to know.  Now go watch Obama roast him here.
