One particularly tense moment at the Senate Finance Committee hearing Wednesday morning with Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius came when Kansas Republican Senator Pat Roberts called for her resignation again.

He spoke at length during the hearing, expressing his disappointment at the lack of information provided to Congress throughout the website’s development – including some warnings of problems ahead by government investigators.

“In short, Madam Secretary, I believe you were given advice, counsel and warning from experts inside your agency and out that the health care exchanges were not going to be ready. Furthermore, I believe to protect the administration, you chose to ignore these warnings, and as a result, you have put our entire health care system and one-sixth of our economy in jeopardy.”

“You have said America should hold you for — accountable, which is why today, Madam Secretary, I repeat my request for you to resign,” he said.

She isn’t incompetent. She is evil and working the plan according to her master.

Everything furthers the goal of pushing a one payer system.

[originalbuckeye]

She looked like she was ready to explode. And she knows NOTHING about health care. She is just there to make sure her Master’s plan continue. I guarantee you that another minion will take her place if she does get the boot.

Imagine that, being held to account for you performance. It is a foreign concept to the public sector. I am responsible for start-ups in my work.....taking a new location and getting it 100% ready to go in a given amount of time.....and if I’d ever launched an expansion like this I would have been bounced so hard and so fast I wouldn’t have had time to turn around before I was canned. The fact that she is still there, without the common decency to resign, is all you need to know. She, as is the entire government, feels entitled to a position and a paycheck. Scruples? They’ve never heard of ‘em.

In the Soviet Union, a small politburo made broad brush decisions for hundreds of millions and left the details to administrators.

Here, the process is much different.

In in the US, one president and 535 members of congress make broad brush decisions for hundreds of millions and leave the details to administrators.

Democrats don’t resign!

[IC Ken]

Yes they want single payer. That way, just like Social Security, they can tax us for healthcare and spend the money on whatever they want.

[I want the USA back]

To be consistent, her boss should be asked to resign, not her.
She is just an obedient little marxist doing the bidding of the great leader.

And if she resigns, she will get a high paying, low visibility, low effort job courtesy of the democrat party.

Oooooo...TENSE! (I call BS)

He’s a f’n Senator, probably voted to confirm the bitch.

I’d be tense too if I was coming up for re-election.

I believe I have seen the brooch she is wearing more than once on cronies or servants of krinton and bama. Not sure, but something very similar. I remember a story about something like this back in krinton’s first reign.

[popdonnelly]

Good for him. The Democrats shouldn’t be allowed to get away with circling the wagons around their incompetents.

[Dead Corpse]

I don’t just want these people removed from power. I want them incarcerated for their crimes.

Justice must be served.

It’s reminiscent of broaches worn during the Clinton Era, I think it was for Hillary advocates — probably supporters and donors. I remember seeing a few on some senior women at a card club.

This is all according to plan, every last step, and most Senators and House members are behind it 100%. They get more control and are loving it.

Communism is the ultimate goal and ObamaCare provides it perfectly.

This entire charade is all about pushing private healthcare out of business and instilling “single payer”, read: government control - Communism. If they can control 1/6th of the US Economy and they control at least 25% of the US economy through “Quantitative Easing”, read: money laundering by the Federal Reserve, they then have control of at least 50% of the US economy. Gaining control over the other 50% by leveraging that first 50% is child’s play.

This isn’t going to end well.

Madam Secretary, You have presided over what is without question the biggest debacle in the history of American government. You have presided over and approved the waste of hundreds of millions of hard earned American taxpayer dollars without acceptable results. Furthermore, you have approved more funding to the very same incompetent organization that you extravagantly paid which led to the unacceptable situation of millions of American’s losing their health care coverage which was promised that they could keep.

Madam Secretary, I demand your immediate resignation!

Who has the brass to read that to her?

[Jimmy Valentine]

The look on Sebelius’ face when he said she should resign was priceless. Very scary, but priceless.

[Kenny]

Obama can’t fire Sebelius , it would be like the Godfather killing his top hit man, she knows too much.

Obama has built, to date anyway, a successful cabal to construct his dream communist nation. Sebelius, Eric Holder. his czars, even Jay Carney, any of his Chicago mob has to stay close and keep their position so they can keep his secrets.

KatyDidn't Do It, doesn't appreciate a helpful gift from a Republican.
