An 'Ebola Czar' who has absolutely no medical experience or knowledge. My God, what a mess. WTG Obola.
yep lost in space here you have the republicans blocling the person to run the department ... you're stupid enough to say he needs to have a medical back ground to manage operations???sorry man I guess he could find a person who manage arabian horses ....yep you're just lost in space as you can be
I need a link to believe that the Republican are blocking the appointment. I thought the Senate changed the rules so it only takes 51 votes to confirm an appointment.
the 51 votes were for judges only you idiot
Wrong again asshole!
Typically, a
congressional hearing is held to question an appointee prior to a committee vote. If the nominee is approved by the relevant committee, the full Senate must then approve the nomination. The actual motion adopted by the Senate when exercising the power is "to advise and consent"
For appointments, a majority of Senators present are needed to pass a motion "to advise and consent". A filibuster requiring a three-fifths vote to override, and other similar delaying tactics have been used to require higher vote tallies in the past.
On November 21, 2013, the Democratic Party, led by Majority Leader Harry Reidoverrode the filibuster of a nomination with a simple majority vote to change the rules.
