Sebelius Apologizes for Health Site's Woes

 

Sitting here at my desk reading the wall street journal, I began to read an article titled"Sebelius Apologizes for Health Site's Woes". The article highlighted the following:

· The Republicans are calling for Sebelius's resignation.

· Republican Rep. Gregg Harper of Mississippi suggests that President Barack Obama was ultimately responsible.

· Fourteen states are running their own insurance exchanges.

· Republicans at the hearing repeatedly questioned Mrs. Sebelius about health-insurance cancellation notices that thousands of Americans have been getting in the mail in recent days.

Nearing the end of the article Rep. Henry Waxman (D., California), the top Democrat on the committee, said that thanks to the Affordable Care Act, "the worst abuses of the insurance industry will be halted." That statement was so profound. I began to think about all of the negative talk that is going on concerning the problems of the website; all of the abuse that Ms. Sebelius and President Obama is taking, and I began to thank God for people like them. That they are willing to go through the fire, take full responsibility for something that they are not totally responsible for. Nonetheless, for the good of the American people who desperately need insurance coverage they continue to strive to perfect the system that will bring so much relief to many, many people.
