Obama Appoints Controversial Healthcare Official While Congress Is On Recess

July 12, 2010 by  

Obama appoints controversial healthcare official while Congress is on recess In an effort to sidestep the mandated Senate confirmation process, the White House has announced that President Obama will appoint Donald Berwick as the head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services while Congress is on recess.

Bypassing the confirmation hearing will allow the Obama administration to avoid a contentious debate over Berwick’s past support of the UK’s Federally-run healthcare system and his positive portrayal of healthcare rationing, according to USA Today.

"This recess appointment is an insult to the American people," said Senator John Barrasso (R-Wyo.). "Berwick is a self-professed supporter of rationing healthcare, and he won’t even have to explain his views to the American people in a congressional hearing."

Many political pundits have suggested that the recess appointment is an attempt by Obama to prevent Republicans from reopening the debate over healthcare reform, which many conservative leaders are still trying to get repealed.

"With the agency facing new responsibilities to protect seniors’ care under the Affordable Care Act, there’s no time to waste with Washington game-playing,"’ said Obama’s communications director Dan Pfeiffer.

Berwick was nominated by President Obama in April, however no confirmation hearing had been scheduled as of July 6, Fox News reports. Although the 63-year-old pediatrician can assume his post immediately, Obama will be forced to re-nominate him in January.

    I am a senior citizen and I am outraged that Obama would go behind the American peoples backs and get a Communist like Donald Berwick to completely take down the Medicare and the government takeover, or in other words Obamacare. I say that the senior citizens that worked all their lives and paid into Medicare and Social Security and then for Harry Reid to take our money out of these accounts and spent the money on whereever he took a notion. He ought to be made pay back the money. He has $10,Million for his re-election, he doesn’t need that money, so he should put it in the Medicare and Social Security Accounts. This Idiot said that the American people are going to have to share the wealth with the poor. I’m no willing to give my money that I worked so hard for and was in depression for 8 yrs, because I had a handicapped daughter and I had to pay medical bills, and I don’t intend to give someone that is a drug head or so lazy they have never worked a day in their life. This Mr Berwick also said that there will be many American that won’t have insurance and the government will determine who gets it. I think every one of the evil people in the WH need to be Impeached and thrown in jail and let their money that the will be fined with pay for our economy to get back on the right road. The American are so outraged with this Medicare and Social Security that if our Medicare and Social Security is cut out that there is going to be a war like no one has ever seen before. It will not be like the Greece war, it will be more like an American Holocaust, so I advise this Mr Berwick that if he cuts Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and any other Ins. that he better leave town, because the American people will not take anything off of sometime that has been hired behind the American people’s backs. The hiring wasn’t done right, so I think he needs to be fired Immediately. We do not need anymore government employees. There are too many now. If all the Democratic government positions were eliminated we would be able to have all kinds of money to help the small businessmen, get the economy back on tract, and all kinds of things could be done. I say again that this Donald Berwick needs to be fired. He is nothing but a Communist and is trying to take the American people for a ride and trying to bankrupt America. Let all these Democrats if they want the poor given anything, they can share the wealth, not the hard working people that have had to work all these years for what they have. These Democrats have been handed everything coming and going, so they need to share the wealth. They have all kinds of money. Just like Harry Reid with his #10,Million. Let him give all that money to the poor.

    • James

      Rhoda141, Bravo! But let’s not forget that Medicare and Medicaid are government run health-care programs. That’s socialism. The federal government has inserted itself between patients and their doctors, and will dictate how ailments will be treated, and will raise taxes to finance all the federal agencies involved in that control.

  • Claire

    Another recess??!! Geez, I remember during the campaigns, everyone was going to work 24/7. What happenened?

    • Claire

      happened – time for me to go to bed.

  • owldog

    Read “Money-Driven Medicine” by the prolific research author Maggie Mahar. It is a non-ideological critique of every aspect of U.S. health care, at every level.

  • http://None Iva2shoes

    Lindaspy: you have obviously not read our constitution. There is nothing in it that suggests that this country should evolve into socialism or communism, or any other ism–except Americanism. Our constitution was a precious gift to the American people and we should do all in our power to keep it pure.

    The leadership we have now is trying to change and corrupt its meaning. It seems that Democrats have gone over almost completely to Obama’s Marxist phylosophy, and the Republicans have also made a mockery of our constitution at different times. That is why so many people are supporting the Tea-Partiers. They want the constitution adhered to. Thank goodness there are people who have the perception and intelligence to look beyond false promises and downright lies of some of the present leaders. We need change alright; just not the Obama kind.

    • JeffH

      AMEN!

    • owldog

      Praise the Lord for the slave-owning, patriarchal church of fundamentalist Contitutionalism.

    • Michael

      If Sarah Palin finally studies a bit of economics, history, and science and if she can finally come up with an independent thought based on evidence without the aid of a script then maybe I’ll support the tea party. You have to admit – if that woman was placed on the world stage – she would make America a laughing stock. As an American living abroad, I can tell you that people look at America and wonder how on earth these intellectual light weights end up being the country’s leaders.
      And for the record I’m not a liberal lefty or a an ultra right winger – I’m an independent who thinks the approach to governemt must be much more pragmatic.

      • Rob Alexander

        FYI, Palin is not the whole Tea Party…

      • Michael

        Palin may not be the whole Tea Party but she has many supporters. I’ve seen the interviews with some of her supporters – shocking beyond belief. They’re asked about foreign policy, the current state of affairs of the American economy etc. – they barely have a cursory knowledge of the issues – just the usual response of – isn’t Sarah Palin great and isn’t she a great American. It is inexplicable why people settle for such morons as the people they champion. A real independent who loves liberty should pick leaders who can hold their own both at home and abroad. Leaders who when they open their mouths demonstrate a good command of the issues – they don’t have to know everything but they better have basic knowledge like e.g. What countries are in NAFTA? – The question that Palin didn’t get right the first time around. If she endes up being president God help us all!

      • GregS

        “Basic knowledge???”

        Mr Obama said the following:

        “I’ve now been in 57 states — I think one left to go.” –at a campaign event in Beaverton, Oregon.

        I would think that knowledge of how many states are in the Union is FAR more “basic” than knowledge of how many countries are in NAFTA.

        Yes, PLEASE, God, help us to get this man out of office! I pray DAILY for this!

  • RID THE RAGHEAD

    We have put up with his lies, his deceite, his Anti-American Theology and we’ve put up with too much for too long. We can’t wait until November to kick his and his wife’s White Hating, American Hating, Natzi, Communist, Terrorist butts out to the curb and into prison. We didn’t have to wait for Clinton to be impeached for an election, why leave this terrorist here to destroy our country, our Constitution, our Bill of Rights and Our Flag, when we can do what we have to do NOW and not wait until November! Congress goes on vacation and what does he do? Pulls another stunt. He’s a sneaky bastard who waits until the Congress goes away for awhile, then BAM! He does something else. Couldn’t this be considered an National Emergency that requires immediate action? By November, we might not have a country to hold an election on or for.

    We’re in trouble people. If anyone else had lied their way into the Presidency (which wouldn’t have happened), and has done what “he” has done, it never would have lasted. Treason comes in different colors and right now it’s a shade of hate that gets uglier every day.

  • http://yahoo Ralph

    The President has apponted what appears to be a modern Dr.Mengele who not only endorses death panel,disguised as money saving measures,but by his own words wants to denie healthcare to senior citizens and handicapped people,just like the National Socialists(Nazis)did in Germany in the 1930′s.The Obama/Soros Adminastration is blantly socialist and needs to be given a jolt in November to show Mr.Obama and his Neo-Libs that they can not have their own way against the will of the American People by using thug tactics.

  • Lindaspy

    JAMES …..Saxby and company did not mind adding to the national debt when the Republicans were CREATING a debt out of a surplus during the Bush fiasco. Funny how they helped create this problem but want everyone to forget what they did and just blame it all on the Democrats so they can have a power grab. I mean does anyone really think that the current crop of Republicans is truly going to do anything real about the deficit? Not as long as they continue to line the pockets of more wealthy corporations with their corporate welfare spending which for some reason they think is justifiable spending. While the Democrats are no angels by any means, this batch of Republicans are some of the biggest frauds in the history of politics. Problem is so many of their supporters are slurping the kool-aid from their propaganda ministry of Goebbles proteges Limbaugh, Beck, Hannity, Drudge, etc.

    If the GOP is that concerned about National Debt, why don’t they find a way to fund the wars. When we borrow for these wars, we are also paying for 100% of health care costs for these countries. Why would they possibly back this when they don’t want national health care for their own people. As I recall, Bush said that Iraq would pay for the war with its oil!!!!

    The GOP has zero credibility on the topic of fiscal responsibility. They spend like drunken sailors, just like Dems. The difference is that Dems spend on social programs, not unneeded wars and excessive military spending, and corporate welfare.They all sat by like statues while George Bush ran two wars of the books and borrowed money from China like they were a rich uncle, and they said NOTHING! The don’t care about the debt, they only care about poking President Obama.
    Unfortunately, your GOP also created the economic chaos that has left millions of Americans unemployed, whom you now deny unemployment benefits. As an old saying goes, “you’re preaching the gospel in your underwear”.

    If you can’t offer some real help, real suggestion, why don’t you get out of the way and let President Obama do his work….

    • JeffH

      Lindaspy, where have you been burying your head? GOP this Republican that…Bush this…You liberals are complete idiots to what goes on here, let alone the real world…you seem to think this is all about Republicans vs Democrats…because Republicans or Bush did “it” nobody has a right to bitch when the Dems or Obama does “it”. Have you taken the time to reakize most on here dislike and blame “both” political parties for their contributions to the downfall of America and now we have a Marxist/communist/socialist president that feels the best way to stop a recession is to spend, spend ,borrow and spend, then tax, tax and spend some more and 100% ignores the voices of the people. You might like socialism or communism but to Americans it is un-American an unacceptable.

      • JeffH

        …this guy is a puppet, out to achieve “social justice” for the poor and oppressed of the world, and is doing the bidding of George Soros and the globalists and at the same time forcing his Marxist/communist/socialist agenda on us to bring America to it’s knees. I can’t and won’t live by the creedo “better red than dead”, so be a proud commie and put on a red arm band so we can tell who the bad guys are.

      • kate8

        JeffH, Why, oh why, do we even bother to respond to these lefties? It’s nothing but an exercise in futility, and it’s exactly what they want.

        ndaspy,
        how many times do you lamebrains need to be reminded that Bush did NOT inherit a surplus or even a balanced budget??? Check out the government accounting office site and you can see for yourself if you can do that by yourself!!!

    • James

      Lindaspy, I made no reference to political parties. The crushing debt was started by the Bush administration and is being continued by the Obama administration. As I have said elsewhere, I think removing all incumbents from office, regardless of their political affiliation, this November, would be a step in the right direction.

    • Rob Alexander

      The so-called “budget surplus” during the Clinton Administration was just a huge increase in the money supply. The surplus was NOT created by spending less than they took in, it was created with a printing press.

  • atlas reborn

    when all you people get older and need health care you will get just what you blindly say it not going on or going to happen remember that when you are either let die without treatment or get put to sleep. just remember that when its your time. then you will know too late.

    • Mike In MI

      atlasaborto -
      Too bad you weren’t here during the Disease Care Debate discussions. See, a large percentage of the wise folks on this site have already learned that American and UK sickness care is savage and barbaric, not worthy of the term “health care”. Ergo, they have taken steps to learn what one need do to stay healthy and protect themselves from becoming prey of the madical system. Why? ‘Cause once they get hold of you they do things that they know will keep your path to their door well worn. Besides that, they’ve got you so well brainwashed they KNOW you expect the “best health care in the world”. So, they give you the best technology and science has to offer. The shame of it is the human body needs prevention through natural substances and procedures to prosper.
      Other than that, they’ll never let you know about Dr. Gary Null and his study, “Death By Medicine”, which recounts how around 783,000 patients (conservative numbers) per year are led to untimely deaths via the depredations of the medico-pharmaceutical cabal.
      If you’re fool enough to think Obamacare is going to interfere with their business plans you deserve what you’ll get at their ministrations.
      As for me, if they don’t succeed in outlawing all forms of natural health products, services and information (which they are trying desperately to do) I expect to just go to sleep some night and not wake up next morning.

  • meteorlady

    This is more than an insult to the American people – it’s criminal and I am incensed.

  • Lindaspy

    I agree with Dave. Take a deep breath and stop trying to lynch the president. Does it really matter that he appointed this man versus taking up the time and paying all those senators to sit and say “NO” anyway??? Bush did it how many times?

    Republican party will be the party of unemployment. Republicans were willing to vote for hundreds of billions of dollars of war expenditures without paying for them, or trillions of dollars of tax cuts without paying for them. Are reps actually concerned about this sort of increase in the national debt? Republicans want to block anything that can boost the economy and create jobs. Throwing people out of work may not be pretty, but politics was never pretty, and it is getting less so by the day. The dirty secret that most Americans aren’t aware of is that the only way to get most anything done in the Senate is to hold their vacation time hostage.Bush sure set a good example of this didn’t he?

    Republicans are so angry about health reform passing that they are just not going to cooperate on anything major.
    The Republicans have no interests beyond their own political survival. That survival, as they see it, necessitates that they toe the line set down by the banks and mega corporations who fill their campaign coffers.

    Most of the banks and big corporate interests look upon Obama as a wrench in their gears. The Republicans have been instructed to block Obama at every turn. If Obama praised “Mom and Apple Pie” the Reps would oppose it.

    Is it really in the interest of this country to effectively paralyze congress? Or are you one who believes that nothing is better than something? Are you so pleased with the status quo that you’d prefer nothing ever change?

What’s “pathetic” is Soetoro was out there community organizin’ and Acorn-holin’ all the lenders and bankers into giving away the family farm by making them write contracts that could never be fulfilled. That left lots of contractors, developers and investors holding empty bags. But, so what? They’re only lousy capitalists. Soetoro gleefully ate them alive…his primary prey.
        He was so good at it his controllers gave him the Presidency to go ahead and eat us all. Eddie they’re gonna munch you, too. You’re just one of their “useful idiots”. So, when you feel it begin to bite…pat yourself on the back and say, “Way to go, eddie. This is your reward for being a good little brainwashee. Ow, ow, Ouch. No…no, not that too. AWRRRrrrruhh-h-h….

    • James

      Lindaspy, Increasing the national debt doesn’t create jobs. Right now the national debt amounts to $42,000 for every man, woman and child in the United States. The only reason Americans don’t rail against that is because we haven’t felt the impact of it yet.
      When the House of Representatives voted against a $30.1 billion additional debt (to extend unemployment benefits to 1.7 million unemployed Americans) was because the national debt has exceeded what Americans will ever be able to repay.
      Our total unemployed now is 17,000,000 and climbing, if we need to complain, it should be about the $3 billion foreign aid to Israel, the $4 billion foreign aid to Afghanistan, and the many more billions in foreign aid to the world at large. With our economy in the tank, this amounts to treason. No where does the Constitution say Congress has the power to tax Americans and give it to foreigners.

    • meteorlady

      So lets see – since the last two years of Bush’s term the Dems have been in power and unemployment has gone up and and the deficit has ballooned. I run a small business and I am getting ready to lay off two people. Then, there is the new health care bill which will force my employees to claim the value of the health care I provide to them for tax purposes. I am going to get taxed more because I am considered “rich” even though some days I take home less than my employees. Business taxes in the United States are up to 38%, my property taxes are going up and up, and then I have to pay my personal income and state taxes, which are increasing every year. My contribution to unemployment taxes are also increasing. There are more and more regulations coming my way and if there is a VAT tax, I will become the government’s tax collector. So how long do you think I will be able to stay in business and be profitable? How long do you think I will WANT to stay in business.

  • Dave and Judy

    Another brilliant move by Obama. No questions from the Senate to be asked to Donald Berwick, a hand picked jerk if there ever was one.

    He wants a Republican Congress so he can place the blame on them when he runs for reelection and the American voters have a habit of memory loss.

    Say, just when is his next press conference when the press will be allowed to ask questions? The last one was July, 2009. What a leader!

  • Larry C.

    Hello,
    All you hear from the commentators on TV is “ALL” Presidents have done recess appointments to certain posts while congress is out. If Bush had done this with this kind of man the congress, and the senate would be asking for his impeachment right away. I think what has happened is hypocritical. To the highest degree. I would like to ask a question of everybody here–WOULD YOU GO TO THIS DR. FOR ANYTHING IF YOU NEEDED HELP? WOULD YOU ALLOW FOR ONE OF YOUR LOVED ONES TO GO TO HIM FOR TREATMENT? THIS MAN IS NOT ONLY DANGEROUS, BUT HE IS A QUACK, AND PLEASE DO NOT FORGET THAT.

    Larry C.

    • James

      Larry C., Just because the Senate was in recess when the appointment was made, doesn’t mean the Senate can’t summon, question, and approve or disapprove the appointee when they return. Article II, Section 2, Clause 2, says the President must make such appointments with the advice and Consent of the Senate.” It doesn’t set any time-limit between appointments and their confirmations.
      Stated otherwise, it does not say a president must make such appointments when the Senate is in session.

    • Mike In MI

      Larry C. – No, I would not. I have learned how to keep myself and family – if they’ll listen – safe from the depredations of a thoroughly savage and barbaric mode of commiting protracted murder.
      No, I’m not trying to be funny on this post. I’m dead serious, now.

      American and UK madicine has learned how to lure you into elective procedures which keep you beating a path to their golden door. They know how to reduce pain and symptoms without removing the causes of disease which are the ultimate cause of symptoms. They let the causes increase which calls for successively intensive procedures. (Government and Insurances are equally knowledgeable of the scam – which keeps fear of disease and invalidism paramount in your thinking. The laws are being set up so you have no way to stay or become healthy once symptoms start to appear. The food and vaccine companies engender disease from your first weeks; by law you must comply.) In the final months before death your family is kept at wits end to try to keep you alive or kill you.

      It doesn’t have to be this way. But, it will be if you don’t respond now. Obama promised better health and lower costs. What has he fulfilled of his promises so far?

    GW made 171 recess appointmens in his two terms. He abused his power in every way during his terms. Although he was probably the dumbest president this country has every had, he was smart enough to be sneaky. Why are the readers upset that Obama has followed suit? Oh yeah, he’s acting like a white man again. Other presidents including the first have done the same. Independets will eventually hold the white house. Then, the racist Republicans and weak Demoncrats will have not power.

        So I get paid to post here, “WOW” do you have a very vivid but lacking and bent imagination, don’t you……
        But hey there is really good news for you ~ there are drugs that can help you eddieeeee, so don’t you be fretting now, and they still do electric shock therapy.

        Oh wait, I hear your mommie calling again, she wants to know if you cleaned the drool off your Darwin award.
        You better be running on home now eddieeeeeeeee.

        Tonight when the comedy central news comes on make sure you get juiced up so you can get your little girly man nickers in a good tight wad.

        Hey; more good news for you I am going on vacation later this week so you will miss me, I know you will; come on don’t lie about that.
        I will not be taking a cell phone nor a lap top.
        So you be Happy.. O ta’. ;-)

        OK, TIME !! – Good for you my friend. So, you’re gonna vacate the premisies, hey? Well, you get out there and have a great time, TIME – or is it TIME time? Whatever!! You take your Tom-tom and remember that Tom, Tom Bodette is out there guarding your bidet and he’ll leave the light on. You take a whet stone and come back with that great sense of humor all honed sharp and ready to slice and dice the voices of shame that come here from Obumbler-fantasyland talking-points sites.
        My wife and I are moving out for a couple weeks, too. Gotta get away from the numb-nuts liberals for a while. So, we decided to go to Alaska where there aren’t many liberals, I’ve been told. I guess liberals die young up there ’cause Alaskans have to be able to recognize reality and deal with it head on. Something of which liberals have no conception – having been raised with feather pillows and foam rubber protecting every facet of their lives.
        Anyway, have the blessed time of your life and we’ll be reading up on you when we return.

Of course he’s got Obama’s back covered with all of the liberal talking points and I’ve never heard or seen him post real facts let alone back them up with any links, just the simple minded liberal rhetoric…

    • meteorlady

      R & R Even if that’s so – is it right? There is also the fact that Bush is gone gone gone and has been for quite sometime. The press took great pains to vilify poor George so I think that a few little comments about the poor job Obama is doing are warranted.

      I was wondering when some left wing dip would bring out the race card again. You know what. I despise that maggot Obama and if anybody wants to call me a racist for it, I don’t give a damn.

  • Cardiothoracic Nurse

    Donald Berwick is the first permanent administrator since Mark McClellan stepped down from the role in 2006. As a recess appointee, Berwick will have all the powers of a permanent appointee, but serve only until the end of the 111th Congress. He then must be re-nominated and confirmed by the Senate. I hope, at the end of the Congress, that hs is NOT CONFIRMED by the SENATE. This is an opportunity for us all to contact our senators.

    • Kinetic1

      Given the expertise suggested by your name, please tell us why you would not want Dr. Berwick confirmed?

    • s c

      Cardiothoracic Nurse, it’s beyond pitiful that Ohorse’srump found a political pimp/hooker like Berwick. To be practical, since the Senate isn’t known for having a spine or enough common sense to pour urine out of a boot, don’t look for those back-stabbing Senate weasels to do the right thing at the appropriate time – ever.
      The Berwick gambit smacks of PAYOFF. One thing is ALWAYS true when it comes to politicians. When they bypass the American people, you can be sure that nothing short of a firing squad will ‘motivate’ them to act like leaders (instead of career criminals).

    Saddly folks Barry Soetoro has shown from day one what he really is.
    So this is no supprise to any one whos been watching the store.

    Anyone who used a Big Boobed White Hottie to get the eye of the youth is nothing less than a Pimp. Thus the ones who voted for him have clearly displayed that they enjoy being pimped and lied to as well abused as well they enjoy corruption and crime and are thinking like marxisrt as they condoned such by thier vote, thus they are just like him.

    For anyone who has broken that spell, I welcome you back to the real world, I hope you will help us to rid the country of this pile of festering waste material and all others like him.

        Hi Mike,
        Just wait on the new HCR Camps commercials for the Barry Soetoro “Death camps,” -
        Oh I ment {health Care Reform camps} they will have a Big Boobed Hottie showing all the great features of your new life in a death camp. As she walks around is really tight very short shorts you will be thinking; Man I gota get there soon!!

        There will be such great features as your new 2×4 bunk beds used only once before, and for that real camping feeling they have straw on the wood for your comfort. Blankets, hey you don’t need no stinking blankets!

        Plus the new way to cool workout suits, and in black and white stripes so you look taller, and they are really loose fitting like a nice pair of jammies – all with a handy badge to show what kind of issues you have so as to make your stay as short as possible.

        Then as that Hottie walks around showing how sexy the ovens are that will keep you warn, and the new larger showers that will get rid of any health issues once and for all.

        Hey it will seem just like a Holiday Camp!

        And lets not forget at the gates will be a giant 100 foot high picture of Barry Soetoro with a big smile with the special words in his picture, “My Health Care will set you FREE!”

        Then as you enter there will be special music from the life of Barry playing so you feel less stress as your sorted out and given your special badges.

        You know the old song, yes we can can, yes we can!
        We can Change Change YES WE CAN CAN, Wow I just loved that song when I saw it sung by these 8 year olds.

        I don’t know about you but I just got the warm special feeling in the pit of my gut, saying wow how special is that.
        Hey its Kind of like the singing we heard from the Hitler Youth back in the 1930′s – 40′s. Come to think of it its the same dam song!

        Oh the special joy’s of giving that Barry Soetoro has given us all.

      • Kinetic1

        Ah yes, another level headed response from TIME. If you’re looking for “death panels” just check out your local health insurance provider. http://crooksandliars.com/susie-madrak/insurance-company-cancels-cancer-pati

        Have any of you looked any further than the conservative hit pieces to form an opinion of Dr. Berwick? Is it really that extreme to suggest that our hospitals should have standardized rules for hand washing and implement sterilization? Are you comfortable with the fact that as many as 100,000 people die each year as a result of procedural errors rather than the illness the hospital was supposed to be addressing? Does it really upset you to think of a hospital where you are not forced to sleep and eat on a set schedule, even if you are not hungry or sleepy?

        This is amazing. Here is a man who has devoted his life to improving health care and reducing costs, two things you would expect the right to support, and yet you are all screaming foul. When his nomination was announced there were calls of support from both sides, but there was also a call for opposition. The Republicans made it clear that they intended to block confirmation for as long as they could, despite bipartisan support for the Doctor. Why? Just like everything they have done for the past 18 months; to make the President look bad.

        The Republicans are openly working to stall government in it’s tracks, no matter the cost to the economy or the American people. When the President proposed changes to health care, they opposed. When he invited their input, they offered only opposition. When he made changes to meet their demands, weakening the bill in the process. they thumbed their noses. And when the final bill came out looking just like a bill presented by Republicans during the last administration, they announced that, no matter what changes were made they would vote no. How do you think they got the moniker “the party of NO.” The Republican party has bet their future on the success of “NO”. They are gambling our future in the hopes that the voters will respond to “NO”. Will I ever vote for a politician, of ANY party who opposes a bill just to make this or any other president look bad? NO!

      • meteorlady

        Did you actually watch the health care summit? I did and I can tell you that the Republicans had some very good suggestions and concerns about the cost of this plan. Both Democrats and Republicans were to have equal time and that didn’t happen. Obama answered every Republican question or comment, then turned it over to the Democrats. There was not one single attempt made to back off some of the more radical portions of the law and there was not one single attempt made to accept some of the suggestions made by Republicans. Meanwhile the great “leader” sat and smugly muttered platitudes. Not one single Democrat gave an answer to the most compelling questions asked. Not one single Democrat even tried to understand the other sides concern about the cost and a take over of health care by the government. Obama did not try and gain consensus, he actually argued for the Democrats all day long. This is not a leader, it’s an opinionated ass that wants his own way.

      • TIME

        Well Oh ignorant 1,

        I would have to say based on all footage I have seen that Miss. Palin held herself with 100% total Grace even under fire from mindless persons not unlike you.
        She has more class in her little finger than you will ever garner.

        And as the Barry Soetoro girl dressed like hooker, walked like a hooker, and acted like a hooker, there is not even the slightest parallel between the two.
        But it sure clearly showed Barry Soetoro as the PIMP he is.

        And as your a marxist with a newly won Darwin Award your thoughts are as valid as waste material thats flushed daily.

        But you have a nice day you little marxist twinkie. ;~)

      • Kinetic1

        Oh TIME, TIME, Time,
        First, let’s put an end to your fantasy. It’s Mrs. Palin, not Miss. She’s not available no matter how much you beg. Or is it just that you refer to ALL women as “Miss” due to your superiority complex? As to her “grace under fire”, If you call a wink and a note written on your hand “grace” well… When a politician calls “what papers do you read” a gotcha question …. When candidate Palin blames her running mates’ staff for her poor showing, I don’t know if you’d call that grace.

        Sarah Palin calls herself a fiscal conservative, yet she can’t explain why she left her town almost $20 million in debt. She attacks others for wasteful spending, but had no problem charging the state $21,000 for her kids travel expenses. Sure, why shouldn’t the state pay her family to go and watch dad in a snowmobile race, not to mention the bill for 4 nights in a luxury hotel for Bristol and herself so that she could attend a 5 hour conference? She found it necessary to hire a new “administrative assistant” when she became Mayor of Wasilla. Former employees reported that, with only 5,500 residents no other mayor felt the need, but our Sarah had more important things to do. Like taking the family to see Todd.

        What about Governor Palin? To fill a position as top of the State Division of Agriculture, she hired an old friend. Her friends qualifications? She was a real estate agent who cited her childhood love of cows as a qualification. Good enough for a $95,000 job, don’t you think? And her first state budget? Why bother legislators when you can sit down with your budget director and your husband (though Todd was not employed by the state and had no legal qualification to be involved) and cut millions of dollars in legislative projects?

        Yes, Sarah Palin is a real “Maverick” conservative and truly the answer to “old boy politics.” That is if the question is, can a women be the head of a real old boy network? Can she fill her offices with old friends at higher than normal wages? Can she buy off the people of Alaska with oil money? You Bet’cha!

      • TIME

        Oh Less than wise 1,

        I called her Miss as I call all females Miss thats the way I was brought up.
        Its called “manners,” something I guess you failed.

        I am aggressive and if I weren’t many people would not be anywhere as well off as they are. Do I owe anyone an apology, hell no.
        I am very good at my job, I never blame anyone for anything that gets messed up. I take the blame as I am where the buck stops. Thats all part of being in charge.
        In other words its not GWB’s fault nor even yours if something gets mucked up.

        Be that as it may you want to talk about abuse of power, well an aid is no big deal, really to be more effective one has an aid or even two, I have one and she keeps me in check, how many do you have?

        So now explain why Miss Obama need 33 aids, by the way all paid for by the tax payers, and to add to her staff she also has 3 make up people and two hair people, so that’s a 38 aids in total just for her alone.

        Miss Bush had only 3 aids.

        Also Miss Obama also has her mother living at the WH, and a staff of 2 people to aid her mother, and a staff of 6 for her kids.
        so that totals just 44 people to aid Miss Obama, now that’s just a tad excessive.

        Be that as it may Barry Soetoro has 33 Czars all known Marxist, WOW and they also get paid on the US Tax Payers dime. And they answer to no one but Barry.
        Strange how these abuse’s of power you have no issue with, but Miss Palin has one aid, and hires someone who’s an old friend to do a job that pays only $98K per year!

        Well Bubba get with the times I started my new aid at $125K per year, and she had no experience at what I do when she start.

        Now whats your beef with an all American Woman who has strength and Honor, as well love of Family and Country and has as well taken the bull by the horns when the door opened.

        Can you with a straight face and being honest tell me if you were offered a job that allowed you to make your familys life better you would walk away?

    Hey folks, what’s wrong with this picture? i ask, why is it that every postion Obammy fills is done with Obammy avoiding senate confofirmation? do our republican and the democrat politicians actually allow these crooked acts to occur day after day? if Obammy is using this tatic, why is he doing it? is it breaking a law? why has the public not stood up to these secret deal making tatics? something smells here just like where is the live borth certificate? impeach Obammy and his crew od theives NOW!!!

    • CJ

      Why don’t our reps REFUSE to interact with the illegally appointed officials? Obama does it because no one ignores those who he appoints. All these tools our leaders have at their disposal and they refuse to use them. It is truly easier to ask for forgiveness than permission… after the damage is done.

    • Dave

      First of all he doesn’t do it all the time he does it when he has to. That is one of those lies that get thrown out here that people blindly believe. Why does he have to? Because the Republicans refuse to bring a confirmation vote to the floor for any of his appointees. They don’t want open discussion they want the positions not filled which just makes the running of the government that much worse and then they blame the administration. They have held up a record number of appointees. No other congress has done anything like this. So if you want to know why any nominees have to be done this way and not in an open forum write a letter to a Republican and tell them to stop playing games with your government.

      • Ellen

        He does it when he HAS to? There is nothing legal or Constitutional that this creature has done since he ascended to power. Why would those in opposition to this creature (this includes Democrats) vote for his traitorous actions? His appointees are Marxists and globalists……..totally anti-American and he knows he would get too much opposition if he played by the rules so he continues to play the role of the dictator. “They’ve held up a record number of appointees” because some of the people in congress actually care about America. “No other congress has done anything like this”……..perhaps because we’ve NEVER had an openly Marxist dictator as “president” before.

        NO, the nominees don’t have to be done this illegal way. The POTUS IS NOT ABOVE THE LAW even though he thinks and behaves as though he is.

        This creature is not American nor does he care one iota about the American people…….neither do you.

      • Mike In MI

        Dave – I don’t think there is a single poll that has come out lately that shows you or BARRY Obumbler represent the majority in this nation anymore. (Not that you ever did except for a moment in time in the poll booths of the nation. But that obviously had to be a fluke due to our leader’s propensity to lie, tell half-truths, say one thing which he knows listeners will interpret the way they want it to be – not what he means, deceive and pretend as he mouths what his teleprompter requires him to say (which he doesn’t mean or even, necessarily, understand. Thats the sort of thing you liberals gobble up – stuff of dreams and utopian fantasies. ____, ______, “Fill in the blanks, folks. What do you want?

      • meteorlady

        Dave – he has to because he is unable to gain consensus as a leader. He does it because he’s not a leader – he’s a community organizer and continues to use those tactics. All’s fair as long as you get your way in the end. A true leader does not do that – a true leader tries to get agreement or moves on to the next nominee.

    This is typical of Barry. He waits until congress recesses and then he appoints a communist. Time and time again he’s done this. When the hell are the American people going to say enough is enough and STFU and actually DO something about it? As far as I’m concerned, it will be a cold day in hell because in spite of what most polls say, I think the majority of Americans are “content” with this ahole in the Whitehouse. Obama is a disgrace and a pimple on the ass of the United States.

    • Dave

      Bush did the same thing with controversial picks. You only have something to say now because it’s “Barry” as president. Good to know you’re on a first name basis with him. Do we want things to get done or do we want to waste timewith election year game playing as Republicans play their culture of NO and put on a show for all of you right wingers to to try convince you they’re less bad.

      • meteorlady

        No I vote Dave stays. He’s amusing and he’s speaking his mind. We do have free speech in this country and we shouldn’t try and stifle a voice because it’s dissenting. Besides maybe he will actually learn something during is stay here – but probably not.

      • Ellen

        And you’re still going back to Bush? In case you hadn’t noticed, he’s been gone for some time. Good grief, we’re on the edge of the abyss with this communist’s dictates and that’s all you have? Yes, Barry, the non-qualified usurper has carried Bush’s tyranny to breath-taking heights at warp speeds.

        Just because it’s barry? Are you blind as well as stupid? Wake the hell up!

        The only thing Maobama gets done is to create so much debt that there is now no way out of it. Our wars continue and escalate. We unlawfully bail out banks and he has illegally taken over private businesses. He is flushing TAXPAYER MONEY down the crapper in his effort to sue the state of Arizona because they are in a critical situation with the tsunami of illegal aliens………this is one of the few legitimate responsibilities of the federal government…….TO SAFEGUARD OUR BORDERS and protect the people. He REFUSES TO DO THIS. And this stuff is the tip of the iceberg of the utter corruption at the federal level.

        All of the past presidents have trashed the Constitution to varying degrees. Both Democraps and Republiturds have sold the American people out and continue to. It needs to STOP. OPEN YOUR EYES.

      • eddie47d

        Dave was right but that is immaterial to many of you. Several Presidents have used this tactic so blowing up on him really makes you bias. Now if Bush did it does that make him and his staff a “crew of thieves”? The bigger issue is why are the Republicans constantly stalling on these appointments? I would like to see these recess appointments done away with also. The better way to do is to bring forth some solutions. How about a time limit for installing cabinet members? (6-8 months after being elected). All of Obamas appointees were chosen before he was elected or soon afterwards. As with most newly elected Presidents. In our present case the Republicans have been stalling and dragging out these appointments for too long. Can any business function and get the job done if there is this constant bickering with in a company. The Republicans are keeping America in a stalemate while crucial issues aren’t being delt with. So many folks need to “open their eyes” whether left or right.

      • Mike In MI

        Gee, eddie47d, if Obumblers nominees were so wonderful why wasn’t the Admin. able to get them into position? Didn’t they have, HAVE, an insurmountable vote advantage in both houses in Washington? How can it be that the conservatives were able to stop – by themselves, enbloc or as a party of “No!” – anything the Commie wanted to propose?
        Could it be Obumbler really didn’t care, or didn’t want to give away so much pork he wouldn’t have any left for himself?
        Why should he care? He had the people he really wanted secretly, without hearings, discussions or democratic procedures already on our tay? I think he calls them czars…like in Russia’s totalitaran regimes? Just a coincidence he calls them that, I’m sure.

        So Eddie and Dave – does that make the tactic right? Just because “several” presidents have done it? No, I am still incensed and a lot disappointed.

        Mikey in Michigan; I believe your right ,the Czars were a totalitarian regime and they were the allies of the West.Don’t we have wonderful bedfellows in the West,but I would align them more in terms of Bush/Cheney. Now the Czars were replaced with Communism but Obama doen’t even come close to the likes of Stalin. Even though you seem to be pushing you anti-Obama there.

        Dave was right but that is immaterial to many of you.

        Damned Straight it’s immaterial. We’re dealing with right now, and you commie apologists are a waste of everyone’s time.
        One good thing about you tirespome sycophants though…you’re sure getting everyone mad. And that’s what we really do need right now…a whole lot of armed and angry Americans….focused. That’s where you come in.

        Dave, yes, Bush did that. But at least he didn’t have over half the country opposing his picks. Obama is doing it to get around the people.

        Besides, as I remember, the dems through some of Bush’s recess picks out. I doubt we’ll see that with Soetoro.

        Threw, not through.

        I’m beginning to scare myself.

        DAVE, YOU ARE AN IDIOT. A SOCIAL EMBICILE, AND A BOOGER EATING MORON TO BOOT!! YOU WASTE GOOD AIR!

        You are stooping to liberal name calling and insults. It’s just not constructive and doesn’t add anything to the debate.

        meteorlady,
        you are, of course right! It doesn’t add a thing to the arguement, no matter how true it is!!!!!

        Dave, you must be as big fan of the British Health Care system as the appointed socialiat Donald Berwick is. I know by your past posts that you just defend the defenseless Obama regime and are pretty clueless as to what Obama stands for. You’re also pretty clueless that most of the people on here are not huge GWB fans either…it just so happens that this is now BO’s watch and he’s screwing us big time.

        Another dumbass liberal retard with your nose up Odumbo’s rear end huh Dave?

      Congress does have the right to reject the appointment when they are back in session.

      Bet they don’t

    This is typical of the WORST

    • Mike In MI

      LLoyd – “Worst” is not a worthy descriptor. If Obama nominates or appoints someone to a position you can bet the individual is the antithesis of what we have come to expect the best nominee in a category of service should represent. Terms like aggressive, reversionary, vile, homicidal, experimental medical mentality…I guess, Dr. Mengele comes to mind as a mold this type of “doctor” fits. He’s Van Jones with an “M.D.” after his name. Be prepared to either get rid of Obama and his crew or they will destroy ou. Think of it as coming after YOU, personally.
      WHY?
      ‘Cause that’s what this guy (and his boss) is going to do. Think of it as they want to do a sigmoidoscopy on you with a roto-rooter.
      (The same goes for anybody reading this. There is no way anybody will be able to escape beig hit by the broader consequences of what they are doing.) That’s what Obama is absolutely doing to America…just look at his cordoning off, from any entry except his employees, areas in the Gulf region in order to hide whatever it is they are hiding down there.
      Obama is a Muslim (at LEAST a sympathizer with that philosophy) with revised and up-dated Marxian ideology. What they are doing is dismantling the basis of our businesses (without which we have no economic strength), health system, Consstitutional legal system (without which we will have either martial law or chaos), and educational system (without which we can not proceed into the future with pre-prepared minds to do the work of sustaining our culture). The Muslim ideal as Mohammed saw life holds people in a low level existence which Western cultures moved out of centuries ago. It can not sustain or permit an advanced society or the numbers and varieties of necessary skills to live what most of us think of as a prosperous life. (That’s basically why Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, Afganistan, Packistan and the other nations where the Islamics prevail are still sand boxes.) The Muslim religion promotes a savage and barbaric way of life because that’s what Mohammed was – a highwayman caravan raider. That’s the kind of god he wanted. That’s the kind of god that found him – savage and barbaric, sly and devious…Voila!!! Obama and his brigands.
