Here's what we know. Swine flu is real and is affecting many people. The vaccine for swine flu will not be ready in time for the height of Swine Flu season, expected in October and November as opposed to the regular flu peak which occurs in winter. Who runs the CDC now? Obama? EzekialEmanual? Rahm's brother?
And radical, pro-abortion Sebelius laughs it off and mocks a reporter's sneeze? Who is she a kindergarten teacher?
Maybe Secretary Teacher should would with Obama on remedial health care reform first; thee without sin cast the first stone.
***UPDATE*** President Obama issued the following statement about Dr. George Tiller's murder:
"I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence."
Tiller is far from a saint, however, a member of the radical religious right has once again gone way too far over the abortion debate.
Think about it; so called "right to lifer" murders someone?
According to Kansas law, thanks in part to former Governor and current HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, Tiller did nothing illegal. This is not the first time Tiller has been shot either! This radical, anti-abortion wing must end its violence towards doctors who perform abortions. Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion but one fact is clear; abortion remains legal in this country, whether you like it or not. I'm not advocating for or against it. Personally, I am pro-life, but I respect the rule of law.
O'Reilly talks to a woman who had an abortion performed on her at the age of 13 by Dr. Tiller.
Late-term abortion doctor George Tiller, a prominent advocate for abortion rights wounded by a protester more than a decade ago, was shot and killed Sunday at his church in Wichita, his attorney said.
A Wichita city official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk publicly about the case, said a suspect was taken into custody later Sunday. The official would not provide additional details. Earlier, police had said they were looking for a gunman who fled in a 1993 light blue Ford Taurus registered in the Kansas City suburb of Merriam, Kan.
Attorney Dan Monnat said Tiller, 67, was shot as he served as an usher during morning services at Reformation Lutheran Church. Monnat said Tiller's wife, Jeanne, was in the choir at the time of the shooting.
Tiller's wife Jeanne, his four children and ten grandchildren issued the following statement:
"Today we mourn the loss of our husband, father and grandfather. Today's event is an unspeakable tragedy for all of us and for George's friends and patients. This is particularly heart wrenching because George was shot down in his house of worship, a place of peace.
We would like to express the family's thanks for the many messages of sympathy from our friends and from all across the nation. We also want to thank the law enforcement officers who are investigating this crime.
Our loss is also a loss for the City of Wichita and women across America. George dedicated his life to providing women with high-quality heath care despite frequent threats and violence. We ask that he be remembered as a good husband, father and grandfather and a dedicated servant on behalf of the rights of women everywhere."
Related: Michael Steele calls for the resignation of HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and says she has not been forthcoming about her ties to George Tiller.
Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius is President Barack Obama's choice for secretary of health and human services, a White House source said Saturday.
The source, who was not authorized to speak on the record, said Obama will formally announce the nomination on Monday.
Sebelius, 60, was an early Obama supporter. She picked his presidential campaign over that of Hillary Rodham Clinton, now the secretary of state. Sebelius worked tirelessly for Obama's bid and was a top surrogate to women's groups.
Obama's first choice for HHS, former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, withdrew after disclosing he had failed to pay $140,000 in taxes and interest.
Sebelius drew praise for the consumer watchdog role she played as Kansas insurance commissioner for eight years before she became governor.
Her name had been floated for several Cabinet posts. She said in December that she had removed herself from consideration from a Cabinet job, citing Kansas' budget problems that needed her attention.
Michael Tanner at Cato cites Sebelius support of Universal health care and entitlement programs like SCHIP:
A preliminary look at her record suggests that she is a member of what my colleague Michael Cannon calls the Church of Universal Coverage, and has regularly pushed for the expansion of government programs such as Medicaid and SCHIP. She sought to have Kansas taxpayers cover all children up to the age of five, but her proposal was rejected by the legislature. She also has been sympathetic to the ideas of both an employer mandate (she imposed a mandate for companies receiving state contracts) and an individual mandate. As insurance commissioner she had a reputation for supporting increased regulation. Nothing surprising in this record at all.
An interesting question will be whether Sebelius will also inherit Daschle’s role as White House “health czar,” or whether that position will go to Daschle’s coauthor, Jeanne Lambrew, currently the “deputy czar.” If Sebelius doesn’t get the second post, expect health care reform to be driven out of the White House, while Sebelius, generally given high marks for bipartisanship, tries to corral moderate Republican votes.
Cato graded Gov. Sebelius a "D" in last year's Policy Analysis.
