Wonder Why a Clueless Exxon CEO is Being Considered for Sec. State?

The Dismal Political Economist Explains All

To the surprise of many, particularly the groveling Mitt Romney the to be new Pres is considering the CEO of Exxon Mobil for the Secretary of State position.  Now this gentleman (what you were expecting a female?) meets the main criteria, that is, absolutely no diplotomatic or foreign policy experience.  But wait, there's more!

As Exxon’s chief executive, he has spoken against sanctions on Russia, where the company in 2012 signed a $3.2 billion deal that Mr. Putin said could eventually reach $500 billion in investments.

“We always encourage the people who are making those decisions to consider the very broad collateral damage of who are they really harming with sanctions,” Mr. Tillerson said at the company’s annual meeting in May 2014.
