2016 Postmortem

Remember when Cheney smugly said, as he was leaving the WH {and yes, he was president, not Duhbya}, that Cons don't have to worry about Obama since he's installed "his people" in strategic places {and I sure do hope President Obama returns the favor when he finishes his second term}?
DA's, 250 Pentagon appointees, IRS appointees, and many others have refused to leave when Cheney and Bush did. But it does give the impression that President Obama is no different than Bush, and that is, I believe, why they decided to stay on as they try to take down this administration.
