Obama nominee to be new HHS Secretary

SylviaBurwell.jpg


Obama’s nominee to be the new HHS Secretary: Sylvia Burwell is the formerly faceless OMB bureaucrat who shut down our National Parks during last fall’s congressional budget impasse. This is her reward for kicking sand in Republicans’ faces, barring World War II vets from their memorial, and stopping tourists from looking at the Grand Canyon.

  • OH! Here's an interesting take on why Leno really retired........

    The Real Reason Jay Leno Retired . . . . one-liners?‏
    Posted by John Wiant on April 14, 2014 at 6:26pm in Tea Party Nation Forum

    These one liners might be why NBC retired Jay Leno!

    NBC was upset by the fact Leno's comments were ALWAYS right on target.

    "I was going to start off tonight with an Obama joke, but I don't want
    to get audited by the IRS."

    On NSA surveillance: "We wanted a president who listens to all
    Americans - now we have one."

    On a new IRS commissioner: "He's called 'acting commissioner'
    because he has to act like the scandal doesn't involve the White House."

    On closing the Guantanamo prison for terrorists: "If he really wants
    to close it,
    turn it into a government-funded solar power company. The doors will
    be shut in a month."

    Concerning the Benghazi , Associated Press, and IRS scandals:
    "Remember in the old days when President Obama's biggest embarrassment
    was Joe Biden?"

    On Obama saying he didn't know about the IRS scandal: "He was too busy
    not knowing anything about Benghazi to not know anything about the IRS."

    "The White House has a new slogan about Benghazi : Hope and change the subject."

    "It's casual Friday, which means that at the White House, they're
    casually going through everybody's phone calls and records."

    "It is not looking good for President Obama. Today his teleprompter
    took the fifth."

    "Fox News has changed its slogan from 'Fair and Balanced' to 'See, I
    told you so!'"

    On Obama's commencement address: "He told the young graduates
    their future is bright unless, of course, they want jobs."

    On a Chicago man who set a record for riding a Ferris wheel: "The
    only other way
    to go around and around in a circle that many times is to read the
    official report on Benghazi ."

    On White House claims of ignorance on the scandals: "They took 'Don't
    Ask, Don't Tell' out of the Pentagon and moved it into the White
    House."

    Now the last, and I think best!--

    "These White House scandals are not going away anytime soon. It's gotten so bad
    that People in Kenya are now saying he's 100 percent American."

    • Are liberals butt ugly or what?

      "Call me crazy, call me cruel, call me shallow, it doesn’t matter. I see what I see, and pictures don’t lie: liberals tend to be ugly. Yes, I mean physically ugly. For once, we aren’t discussing their inner ugliness. One can’t help wondering if there are reasons. Maybe the bitterness, virulent hatred, systematic divisiveness, and fundamental dishonesty of leftwing philosophy manifest themselves in a flesh-scarring, vitality-sapping, feature-twisting ruination of one’s looks."

  • Okay...

    I am going on b*tch mode perhaps... but I got to say this...

    I am very aware that I am not the most beautiful woman in the world... but damn...

    Seriously?! At least the Assange looking lady TRIED to look alright. She was still manly looking but she looked presentable.

    This lady (?) looks like a witch took her outside b*tch slapped her with her broom and hexed her so she looks worst than a witch... just sayin'... girl looks cray cray. I saw her when she was talking to the Congresspeople and I have to say lady... you got no friends? What is wrong with you? Damn!

  • And you can be sure this evil horse faced skank has her masters degree in lying like the rest of Quagmire's crew.

  • Not sure where I heard it but, paraphrasing; “different face, same on going problems”.

  • Other success stories from this evil looking shrew, budgets defeated 99-0. 98-0, 433-2,... This fugly bitch is going to make Syphilious look good.

    Not to mention piling on $10 trillion in debt. Death panels are coming and this heinous bitch is going to decide your life or you death and that of your loved ones.

    • OK, sure she looks like she was beaten with the ugly tree, but considering her professional history mainly consists of shutting things down, do you think it's possible that she will shut down Obamacare, or just hospitals, emergency rooms, and doctor's offices?

      • One sure fire way to determine the course of action of an Obama regime commissar (or any democrat in general) is to ask the question "What would hurt America and Americans the most?" The democrat Fascist will pick that option.

        In this case JP is correct.

      • Hospitals, emergency rooms, and doctor offices in Republican districts, that would be my guess.
