Lot of things will go bad from Jan 2009 for Gosl !
'Obama on track to nominate Clinton'
WASHINGTON (AP): President-elect Barack Obama is on track to nominate Hillary Rodham Clinton as secretary of state as early as next week, an aide to his transition said.
One week after the former rivals for the White House met secretly to discuss the idea of Clinton becoming the nation's top diplomat, the two sides were moving quickly toward making it a reality, barring any unforeseen problems. Obama is on track to nominate her after next Thursday's U.S. Thanksgiving holiday, the transition aide told The Associated Press on Thursday.
The aide said the two camps have worked out financial disclosure issues involving Clinton's husband, former President Bill Clinton, and the complicated international funding of his foundation that operates in 27 countries. The aide said Obama and Hillary Clinton have had substantive conversations about the secretary of state job.
Clinton has been mulling the post for several days, but the transition aide's comments suggested that Obama's team does not feel she is inclined to turn it down.
Some Democrats and government insiders have questioned whether Clinton is too independent and politically ambitious to be an effective secretary of state. But Obama is said to admire her talents and experience, as do many other Democrats.
A senior adviser to Obama said the president-elect believes Clinton would bring instant stature and credibility to U.S. diplomatic relations and that the advantages to her serving far outweighed potential downsides.
Clinton would have to surrender her Senate seat, which she has held for eight years, to take the job.

Therefore AI correctly has accused both the Govt as well as the tigers!
Bravo kiwi in stating it as it is, of course some like ShanA seem to have difficulty in getting their heads around this. |

| Problem of some of us is that they compare LTTE actions & SL Govt reactions! Little forget that Govt of Sri Lanka cannot behave like LTTE, If not, will be treated the same way by the IC. |

He told the BBC News website that the number of people at risk in the north was 'staggering'.
On the disputed issue of how much food is getting to the displaced, Mr Zarifi said 'a quick needs assessment by international neutral monitors will establish the accuracy of the government's statements'.
'We completely stand by our report,' Mr Zarifi said.
'The government seems to be of the opinion that our criticisms of the Tamil Tigers are fair, but our criticisms of the government betray a bias in favour of the Tigers |
