Obama’s New OMB Director Folds Under Pressure In Senate Committee
Breitbart TV ^ | 01-10-12 | Breitbart TV

Posted on 01/10/2012 10:05:56 AM PST by Lazlo in PA

With less than a month to go before President Obama is required by law to submit a budget to Congress (February 6th), Mr. Obama’s decision today to make Jack Lew White House chief of staff leaves deputy director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Heather Higginbottom to take Mr. Lew’s place as the director of OMB.

As The Hill newspaper reports, Ms. Higginbottom has only served one month in her present role as deputy director of OMB and is considered a “controversial appointee” due to her thin–some would say “nonexistent”–budgetary resume. Prior to becoming deputy director of OMB, Ms. Higginbottom was a deputy policy adviser to President Obama and worked on his campaign as a policy director.

I thought she was Italian. My mistake. Add her to the very short list of quality Greek products.

Apparently, she likes to bowl too. Look at that bowling bag she’s carrying.

Don’t know many chicks that bowl at lunch in DC.

Can you imagine bowling in that dress?/s

Hot??? I don't think so.

I agree with you. Some people are too easily impressed.

Does one need experience to be Obamas' director of the Budget? I mean it's not like there is going to be a budget with Obama as president.

I like the naughty librarian look, I even married one once. lol

You could be right, but that isn’t the first thought I walked away with. I got a different impression from that interchange. I saw her fumbling through the Rolodex of Lib spin in her head trying to come up with the right response to Sessions. Anyone going up there knew what was going to be asked and for her not to be prepared with some coherent answers lead me to believe she was overwhelmed and way out of her league. Her resume amounts to jobs involving her licking envelopes in campaign headquarters and fetching coffee.

How is that different from Obama?

It depends on the lighting.

She was once depicted on a Seinfeld episode.

Yes, I am familiar with this syndrome -- she's a two face.

Kimberly Guilfoyle, PLEASE!!!!!!

Remy Spencer, PLEASE!

Even Brooke Goldstein, YESSS!!!

S.E. Cupp looks great, even with glasses. Michele Malkin just is.....!!! Coulter - I wish I had hair like that (or any hair at all).

Who are # 3 & 4 at the top? Fox’s foxy females, with brains but what is Mrs. Duggar doing in there? Not a Fox fox. More like a one person city populator, and doing a good job at it.
