“There's no better time like now to demand the Secretary of Health and Human Services be confirmed by the US Senate. Governor Sebilus has a lot of work to do and we need the leadership of HHS now!

Smackdown the shameless Republican obstructionist and DION's who have held up her confirmation in committee.”

loria replied on Apr 27, 2009 at 07:01:05

“My thought exactly. I heard CNN talking about this, but they failed to mention that the confirmation of Sec of HHS is being held up by the GOP worried about her stance on abortion. Give me a break. Obstruction and more obstruction. I am so sick of it and the party of NO.”

“We're missing about 20 key posts because of the Republican obstructionism and also the lobbying restrictions. We have no Surgeon General largely because of the restrictions on employment in the private sector after an SG steps down while Obama is still in office.”

“OK. Game plan: Every state north of the Republic of Texas" close your borders.

DNC and President Obama's surrogates hit the airwaves and print media demanding that Governor Sebilus' nomination be moved onto the US Senate for a full vote. Any DINO that votes against the confirmation smack 'em down too. ENOUGH of the obstructionist activities the president of the Unieted States and the people want a fully operational government.

"Give him what the tools and people he needs to protect us." (How many times did we hear this the past 8 years,, however it was in the GOP's case a lie and fearmongering!)”

Republican's that have been holding up Governor SEBILUS' conformation as Secretary of Health & Human Services might want to re-consider their opposition starting in about 24 hours.

“"Republican's [sic] that have been holding up Governor SEBILUS' conformation as Secretary of Health & Human Services might want to re-consider [sic] their opposition starting in about 24 hours."

Why? Like so many other Obama nominees, Sebelius had a problem providing truthful answers during her confirmation proceedings. The idea that an HHS sec. could do anything regarding a pandemic is laughable.”

“I applaid the presidents poll numbers however, here's my thought:

I f a US veteran (disabled) - which the Veterans Administration exhausted $100,000 dollars on education and retraining - can be "disqualified from a federal DOJ position because of filing a bankruptcy to save his home, Everyone of the officials that signed-off om those torture memos, persons involved in the fired AG's conspirators, etc ought to fry - crispy.

This story was related to a 1997 incident which I reported on and never gained legs. Asa veteran myself and former journalist/producer I am hoping that President Obama and the AG do the correct thing - start the trials.

Sure we have pressing issues to resolve before us but nothing is more pertinent than the preservation of rule of law within our society. Equality.

Without "rule of law" and justice the other matters are subsequent and irrelevant because we are condoning tyranny.

Don't be hoodwinked or bamboozled by the right or left - we must heed the humane voice within our hearts and unequivocally declare TORTURE is WRONG.”
