Sylvia Burwell is being harassed by Republican members of the House Health and Human Budget Committee.
The Republicans are seeking hostile tones and they do so by asking the same question of the Secretary over and over in different words. The Republicans members of the committee are hostile to say the least.
She is not the Supreme Court and not a fortune teller. If that is what the committee wants, cut the salary and make sure the government crystal ball is genuine and properly held in custody when not in use.
That was on C-Span on February 26, 2015. They were mean and disrespectful to her. They used her as a pawn in their political gaming. One of the Republicans even manufactured words about how she stated no one in Congress can address governance, only her. That put her on the verge of tears and she denied she ever had any part in that and would like to see what the Congressman was saying. With that he closed his microphone and left the floor.
I have never witnessed any of the Obama White House in tirade or close to it. Every administrator has been respectful even when they are being used as a scapegoat. When is Congress going to be productive rather than political?
