[Stewart Farber]

To get a bit of background on the politics of NRC Chairman Jaczko being
appointed to the NRC in 2005 as a Commissioner,  and later NRC Chairman see
the following article from today's Huffington Post:

You can't blame the Obama administration for Jaczko becoming a commissioner
in 2005 since Bush approved it.  But Obama did finally allow Jaczko to be
named Chairman.
