#1 Let us pray the havoc Dr. Berwick's wrought can be undone.

#2 Berwick was a recess appointment.

Berwick's critics have cited his statements about the need for health care to redistribute resources from the rich to the poor, and his favorable statements about the British health care system.

Berwick advocates cutting health costs by adopting some of the approaches of Great Britains National Health Services (NHS) and its National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE).

The NHS works so well for its citizens (sarc).

Conservative critics claim, "NICE decides which healthcare people will get and which they wont."

If it is rationed, then some get healthcare and some don't. Are those who are on the "right" side of this administration the benefactors of Obamacare? Will Obamacare become a vehicle for corruption the likes of which we have not seen before?

Marilyn Tavenner, on paper, seems to be less acceptable than Berwick.

Health care, the economy, national defense, immigration, jobs and everything else will not get better until this administration is out.
