President Obama has nominated Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, one of the most divisive elected officials in the United States, to be Secretary of the vast U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. In that role, in addition to overseeing an annual budget of $821 billion that affects every American's health, Sebelius will have chief responsibility for guiding the creation of the Obama health care plan.
As governor, Sebelius time and again failed Kansas women and families, opposing good health policies. To name just a few examples:
* In 2003 and 2005, she vetoed bills that would have guaranteed the safety of abortion centers in Kansas, which were operating under medically dangerous conditions; * In 2008 she vetoed a measure to enforce the state's parental notice law so that parents' could be assured an abortion would not be performed on their minor daughter without their knowledge; * Even more shocking, she recently vetoed a bill that would have required those doing late-term abortions to provide an explicit medical reason; * She likewise vetoed another bill that would have required those doing post-viability (that is, after the point when the child is developed enough to breathe on its own outside the womb) abortions to report the diagnosis that led to the abortion.
Finally, Gov. Sebelius has received massive political donations from a notorious late-term abortionist and used the Governor's Mansion to entertain both this man and the nation's leading partial-birth abortionist.
Women deserve better, patients deserve better -- all Americans deserve better. It's clear that President Obama has chosen to put a radical abortion agenda ahead of the desire for reforms everyone can agreed upon.

She’s got the votes. Elections have consequences.
If Brownback supports her, there is no hope.
if this trend continues
ZerO is going to need her guarding the front gates, cause there will be riots.
Have you ever seen what happens to a living thing left in a car in the summer heat of Florida sith the windows rolled up?
In about 15 minutes the heat renders you a vegetable.
This explains my republican senator Mel Martinez.
You could hit him upside the head with a 2 X 4 but it wouldn’t do any good.
There is no learning curve there. Left in the car with the windows closed way too long.
Only explanation for a guy so very stupid.
We in Kansas are glad to see her leave the state, too bad it is to another government job.
When I travel for business, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas are some of my favorite states to go to because the people are so friendly and outgoing. How the HELL did someone like this WITCH get into office?
The media here paint her as the sweetist little thing and do not report on her left wing actions. If you read the papers, she is moderate and who ever is against her either in an election or political policy is Hitler’s more evil brother.
I’m sad to say, if she could run again, she would probably win.
