Janet Napolitano to head UC system

Before anyone starts cheering, let's wait to see who gets nominated to replace her fucking ass at DHS.
We could very easily go from bad to worse.

“While some may consider her to be an unconventional choice, Secretary Napolitano is without a doubt the right person at the right time to lead this incredible university," Sherry Lansing, the regent and former film industry executive who headed the search committee, said in a statement being released Friday. "She will bring fresh eyes and a new sensibility -- not only to UC, but to all of California. She will stand as a vigorous advocate for faculty, students and staff at a time when great changes in our state, and across the globe, are presenting as many opportunities as challenges.”

Yadda yadda yadda.
The bookstore is going to lay in a large stock of thumb screws and students will be required to submit to full body cavity searches every other Wednesday.

A source close to Napolitano, who asked not to be identified because he was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly, said that Napolitano deliberated for a long time after the executive search firm hired by UC quietly contacted her.

“I think she loves working for President Obama and serving the American people, but at the same time, this is a unique opportunity,” he said. Napolitano knows “UC is probably the premier institution in the country. She is motivated by the fact that being a part of UC, she will be a part of educating future leaders of tomorrow and be part of a state that sets so much of the agenda nationally.”

Glad she's out of the whitehouse, but I dread that she will be "educating future leaders" of this country in her leftist ideals

This is a "WTF?" to me. Janet Napolitano has been running for President for the past fifteen years, so her resigning to give herself time to put together a campaign is not a surprise. But going to work for UC -- now *that* is a surprise. I guess she decided the nation isn't ready for a gay woman President yet. (She's in the closet, but her sexual orientation is an open secret in the gay community).
