Two federal agencies charged with keeping potential terrorists off airplanes and out of the country have been without their top leaders for nearly a year or Not one pro-communist; enviro; abortion person they can find to fill these jobs?
WASHINGTON – Two federal agencies charged with keeping potential terrorists off airplanes and out of the country have been without their top leaders for nearly a year.
It took the Obama administration more than eight months to nominate anyone to lead the Transportation Security Administration and the Customs and Border Protection agency.
How hard can this be? This seems to be an on going problem for this administration.
Nearly 200 top positions in the administration remain vacant a full year after President Obama was elected. USA Today reports the backlog puts President Obama behind his predecessors in terms of the amount of time taken to fill key jobs.
The Senate has confirmed 366 Obama nominees, compared with 421 at this point for President George W. Bush and 379 for President Clinton. New York University professor Paul Light, a federal bureaucracy expert, says: "Obama is well on pace right now to set a new record in terms of lateness."
There is no one permanently in charge of Medicare or Medicaid at a time when the president is pushing health care reform in Congress. Mark McClellan, a former administrator for the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services, says the timing isn't good, "without a permanent administrator in place."
Then again maybe this is a good thing
After all how many of these wacko's do we really want in DC ?
200 less is probably a good thing
Coming to DC soon- followers of the "O"
