Sebelius: Who’s up for some “reeducation”?
Hot Air ^ | 8-31-10 | Ed Morrissey

Posted on 08/31/2010 4:41:08 PM PDT by radioone

Sometimes, this administration seems so out of touch with the language of its nation that it borders on parody. Usually, that’s an introduction to a Joe Biden anecdote, but this time the quote comes from Kathleen Sebelius, straight out of the nation’s heartland by geography but more out of the Ivory Tower in practice. Yesterday, when addressing the strong opposition to ObamaCare throughout the nation, Sebelius chalked it up to ignorance and misinformation — and suggested a remedy that sounds as if it came out of Orwell, emphasis mine:

Democrats are all for "reeducation". Vietnam and Cambodia come to mind from the 70's.

Stupidly, when a strongman takes over, the first ones who go into these camps are the ones who promoted it in the first place and thought to share power.

when she was gov of Kansas and cigarettes shot up 50 cents a pack because of taxes she wanted the hipo to be on the main roads in and out of KC MO to check cars for cigarettes being bought out of state and not paying the ks tax. This is her mentality.

“Unemployment checks stimulate the economy”. Nancy Pelosi 2010. A quote that will live in infamy.

Kathleen Sibelius should shut up, and attend to managing and truncating her own Dept of Health and Human Services, as is called for in a contracting debt-ridden economy; rather than telling we the taxpayer, her employer, what to believe. The height of arrogance and obsequity. She is a Leftist.

You can tell her I said so. No Congressman will do it.

What can you expect from a gal who spent Kansas taxpayers funds honoring a man (Tiller the Killer) who thwarted the Kansas partial birth abortion ban? And before that, she appointed an abortionist who had lost his medical license to sit on the Kansas Board of Healing Arts. She is crookeder than a snake.

I’d prefer it if she resigned. This is the woman who praised the SEIU for their support, the day after SEIU idiots beat up that black man. I think she’s dangerous.

I’m also getting the feeling that it was more of a Freudian slip than a misuse of words when she mentioned “re-education”. Who’s to say she doesn’t think like a dictator? Thank God she wasn’t picked as Vice-President!

Channeling Madam Secretary; "How many times must we pound our propaganda into your head before it sticks? So long as we are in power, we will be in your face telling you what to believe in the face of all logic."

The solution, choke off the money, defund it, cancel it until Obama is forced from office and then KILL IT DEAD, replacing it with a self-funding safety net that would be practical!

Why do I get the feeling that Sebelius and everyone else appointed to run a department are on their own to do as they please. Of course they don’t have a clue anyway but they see that no one is watching the store so why not appear every day and say asinine things and make a fool of yourself? They all know there’s no experience for the top job so they are on their own with no one and I mean NO ONE the wiser. No accountability whatsoever.

Do we no longer have IG’s in place to oversee these stupid people and their policies/agencies? Wouldn’t surprise me if somewhere along the line, the head honcho decided they didn’t need any stinkin’ IG’s - they can make trouble for you so you have to fire them pronto! Leave them swinging in the wind!!

Every day more disgusting actions come from DC and that’s WITH Congress in recess....Lord help us when they return!

This adds great insult to great injury. The bill was not debated, it was jammed down our throats. Congress did not hold hearings, they just accepted entire sections written by leftist groups behind closed doors and then rushed the bill through so fast that it was impossible to read it before the vote. Indeed, Nancy Pelosi was happy to tell is that we would have to wait until passage before we could find out what was in it.

Now supporters are clueless as to why we still reject it. And they will be equally clueless why we will reject them in November.

Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.

“Stupidly, when a strongman takes over, the first ones who go into these camps are the ones who promoted it in the first place and thought to share power.”

Then the homosexuals, drug abusers and other deviants are sent to the camps. The only ones kept are the ones who can produce revenue for the country.

You would think that they would know this, from what happened to the intellectuals that promoted the revolution. When Stalin took over, they were the first ones shot.
