CMS Head Berwick Resigns

CMS Director Donald Berwick, lover of rationed health care for all, has resigned rather than go through a Senate confirmation hearing.

Readers may recall Berwick was appointed to the position while Congress was in recess, thus allowing him to assume the position on a temporary basis.

Obama circumvented the Senate confirmation process, appointing Berwick while Congress was in recess in July 2010.

The move, which hardened GOP opposition, meant Berwick had to step down by the end of this year.

Looks like the American public got an early Christmas present and something more to be thankful for tomorrow.
