Bill Joy For New National CTO Post?

jddeluxe writes "In an article in today's NY Times, John Doerr of Kleiner-Perkins proffered up Bill Joy's name when queried by Barack Obama for a recommendation for the position of Chief Technology Officer of the Unites States which Obama has promised to create and that the country is overdue to have. I think that's a brilliant idea, and while you're at it, have the FCC report to him as well, why don't you?" If Bill is unavailable, I'll throw my hat in the ring, although I'm holding out for Secretary of Tubes.

We don't need a national CTO. We can make our own technology decisions without the government telling us what to do.

We don't need a Secretary of the Treasury. We can make our own monetary decisions without the government telling us what to do.

Imbecile.

Nice non-sequitur. Supporting your "Obama administration" (which has yet to be created, BTW) claim with something totally unrelated. Your train of logic derailed a ways back, dude.

You sound like a Republican. And, I bet you voted for Bush twice. So, please don't give the rest of us advice on selecting competent government officials.
