They Were Outraged When Bush Made Recess Appointments

ABC News reports that President Obama appointed Dr. Donald Berwick, as Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).

Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., called the recess appointment "an insult to the American people. Dr. Berwick is a self-professed supporter of rationing health care and he won't even have to explain his views to the American people in a Congressional hearing. Once again, President Obama has made a mockery of his pledge to be accountable and transparent." Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, called him an “expert on rationing.”
