ROMNEY, OBAMA, LUNCHING AT THE WHITE HOUSE TODAY............
Making good on his post re-election news conference that he would sit down with his General Election opponent to discuss issues of mutual concern and how they can work together going forward for the good of the country, POresident Barack Obama will meet for lunch at the White House today, with Governor Mitt Romney. Coming just over three weeks after their Presidential contest endedin Obama winning a 51% - 48% Popular Vote, 332 -206 Electoral Vote, victory over Romney; this may be the most significant post election Presidential nominees meeting since the one between President-Elect John Fitzgerald Kennedy and Vice President Richard Milhous Nixon, in 1960. A discussion between them may possibly include some exchange of ideas on Taxes, Entitlements, and the Fiscal Cliff, CBS News This Morning anchor Charlie Rose reported this hour. With the post election politics of the Benghazi Consulate bombing and killings; and reaching an agreement to avert falling over the Fiscal Cliff, ensuing - their bipartisan meeting may perhaps help ameliorate the tenor of positions and posturing, as the Obama Administration and the Congress seek to find common ground they can reach to address the nation's challenges. After the intensity of their personal challenge and obvious dislike for each other during the Presidential campaign, the fact that they are meeting and will dine together this soon after Election Day, will hopefully provide a positive and constructive way forwards for Washington beyond politics and focused on the job of governing that are our public servants responsibility to carry out, above and beyond the politics, philosophies, and proclivities, any and all of them possess............Fr.

Back to the Susan Rice controversy....a quick vetting of her financial records has surfaced that she has some sizable investments in Canadian oil, which could pose a conflict of interest in some pending international commerce decisions.
THE CONFIRMATION OF RICE AS SECRETARY MAY BE MADE EVEN MORE DIFFICULT LACKING SUPPORT FROM MODERATE REPUBLICAN SENATOR SUSAN COLLINS AND GIVEN THE POSSIBILITY OF SOME RESISTANCE FROM DEMOCRATIC SENATORS WHO MIGHT INSTEAD FAVOR KERRY FOR THE POST. IF I WERE THE PRESIDENT I WOULD THROW THE REPUBLICANS A CURVE BALL AND NOMINATE SUSAN RICE TO SUCCEED PETRAEUS AS CIA DIRECTOR AND ARGUE HE IS DOING SO THAT SHE MAY CLEAN UP THE INTELLIGENCE COMMUNICATIONS SHE HERSELF WAS A VICTIM OF............tdp
