Who's Obama going to pick to head the National Weather Service? Al Roker?!
President-elect Barack Obama has offered the job of surgeon general to Dr. Sanjay Gupta, the neurosurgeon and correspondent for CNN and CBS, according to two sources with knowledge of the situation.
Apparently this guy has the credentials, I mean, he's a fucking neurosurgeon for Christ's sake, but let's not forget the attack on Michael Moore. Does Gupta think that our health care system, or more to the point, the insurance system that has our health care system by the balls doesn't need a makeover? Is he going to be the right face for universal health care?
Paul Krugman has more.

UPDATE (6:30am): It has been leaked by a Fox senior aide that the Obama team has asked American Idol judges Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson to head up the National Endowment for the Arts. None could be immediately reached for comment, although the Fox aide who spoke on the condition of anonimity said that Cowell hated the idea, Abdul loved it and Jackson thought it was a little pitchy, but it was "aight, dog."
There is still no response from the Obama team to the rumor that the position of Secretary of Agriculture was offered to Bobby Flay.
