She's Gone

She's being canned for her failure to make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Oh well.

From the link you provided: "As recently as last week, Jay Carney, the White House press secretary, rejected any suggestion that Ms. Sebelius would be fired."

Either you posted the wrong link or you are stretching the truth. I read it as she resigned after the ACA rollout, rocky as it has been. YMMV.

And Obama did not have her standing next to him saying they reached 7.1 million signups.

She got the boot then.

I jumped up and kicked my heels together in a spirit of great joy. The incompetent sanctimonius bitch finally quit. She should never have been appointed for the SHHS post, but then, you could say that for the majority of the Obama cabinet.

With a bit of luck, perhaps Hiliary will decide not to run and good old Joe can be the democrat contender.

From the link...

"Officials said Ms. Sebelius, 65, made the decision to resign and was not forced out. But the frustration at the White House over her performance had become increasingly clear, as administration aides worried that the crippling problems at HealthCare.gov, the website set up to enroll Americans in insurance exchanges, would result in lasting damage to the president’s legacy."

We sure wouldn't want anything to sully his legacy now would we?

Let's just say that she's being allowed the dignity of resignation.

Which would be a vast improvement over the stinking pile of crap we have now.

You all seem to forget that the incompetent software company that screwed up the ACA site was put on the short list of approved vendors by the Bush administration and the vulgar references to her are totally uncalled for,
