| If she thinks BHO has got her back she needs to remember all the folks he has thrown under the bus when they are no longer useful to his agenda. "The Office of Management and Budget, is responsible for the president’s budget. But OMB also has another, lesser-known responsibility: fact-checking presidential speeches. Every proposed presidential utterance is scrubbed for accuracy by OMB." “Burwell was OMB director when Obama declared on Sept. 26, 2013: “Now, let’s start with the fact that even before the Affordable Care Act fully takes effect, about 85 percent of Americans already have health insurance — either through their job, or through Medicare, or through the individual market. So if you’re one of these folks, it’s reasonable that you might worry whether health-care reform is going to create changes that are a problem for you — especially when you’re bombarded with all sorts of fear-mongering. So the first thing you need to know is this: If you already have health care, you don’t have to do anything.” Burwell should explain to Congress and the American people how her office allowed blatant falsehoods to get into presidential speeches, including whether political aides overruled career policy advisers who warned that the president’s claims were untrue.” http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/marc-thiessen-let-hhs-nominee-sylvia-burwell-explain-obamacare-lie/2014/04/14/4f0b67c6-c3dd-11e3-b574-f8748871856a_story.html?hpid=z2 | |

It was the.......T*E*L*E*P*R*O*M*P*T*E*R!! The cowh only read what he had in front of him. Didn't take long for Sebelius to be canned and then claim that the rollout was a complete disaster from the beginning. Doesn't sound like the spin she and others gave at the time. Her leaving is supposed to 'calm' the voters for the 2014 elections so she like Lerner and probably others were compensated nicely for their towing the company line. Doesn't really matter what Burwell or anyone else says when the 'blatant falsehoods' [much nicer that LIES] are proven as such then the questions about how...who...or why will never be answered. If she can explain the fiasco known as [name] cowh healthcare that is truthful or makes good sense...then she really deserves the job. | |

| Turns out Burwell is tangled up in a Metlife lawsuit brought by Metlife shareholders over shady financial dealings concerning insurance payments. Yeah - that's who needs to "straighten" out Obummercare - someone who knows how to cook the books. Doesn't anyone on Obummers staff know how to vet a nominee or maybe honest folk simply refuse to be tainted by this administration.....
"Sylvia Mathews Burwell, President Obama’s nominee to lead the country’s health care overhaul, remains entangled in a lawsuit brought by shareholders of MetLife accusing her of misleading investors as a director of one of the country’s biggest insurance companies.
The federal lawsuit, filed in New York, says the company used a Social Security death index to stop making payments when beneficiaries died, but the company wasn’t as diligent about using the database to track deaths of its policyholders, which triggers payouts, the lawsuit said."
