Susan Rice Named National Security Adviser
UN Ambassador Susan Rice has been tapped to be the next National Security Adviser.
Rice, who was the president’s original choice to replace Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State, is one of Mr. Obama’s most trusted foreign policy advisers. She withdrew her name from consideration after Republicans criticized her for giving misleading remarks regarding the attacks in Benghazi, which killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and 4 other Americans.
Rice will replace Tom Donilon, who is resigning after serving Mr. Obama for his entire tenure as president. National Security Council senior director Samantha Power will replace Rice as UN Ambassador. Since the appointment of Susan Rice does not require senate confirmation, she will assume her post at the White House early next month.
Repubs are P*SSED OFF they have no say in this and Obama can pick who he wants. No you can't micro manage the White House!
