Actually Sebellius is 100% correct. The bill explains very clearly that it is at the dicretion of the Secretary of HHS. They are valid for one year, subject to renewals each subsequent year. The dog-n-pony show which wanted to march waived firms or groups in front of congress is wrong. Only Sebellius is the one who can explain the ways or considerations in the process of granting waivers.

Let her purjur herself.

Yes put sebelius on the stand to explain her rationale.

That will be interesting, to say the least. She definitely does not want to do that - nor does she want to claim executive privilege on the stand. What a grand soundbite that would be.

“Actually Sebellius is 100% correct.” Good point.
“Let her purjur herself.” Good analogy and she will
if if this investigation gets legs. Now doing the perp walk
will be another story. She’ll lie outright, take the 5th or
refuse to answer on grounds of discretionary authority
like Bernanke did. But being held accountable? I doubt it.
