The project launched before Carolyn Colvin became acting commissioner in February 2013. But Republican senators on the Finance Committee think they've been mislead by Social Security officials over details of the troubled project.
They vow to block a vote on Colvin's nomination until they get more answers. Obama nominated Colvin to a six year Commissioner's term in June. Before becoming acting commissioner, she was the deputy for three and a half years.
First, it was the opportunity to have the FIRST black President. Then, it was the same for nominating a new head of SSA, DOJ, etc, etc. I'm sorry but I've had "enough" of these FIRSTS. Can we PLEASE go back to nominating people QUALIFIED to do the job? If they happen to be black, ok but stop the criteria of affirmative action.
ReplyDeleteThe mere fact that she's been a deputy with the department is enough to disqualify her in my mind. Nothing will change except the name on the office door. These embedded liberal 'Obama era' puppets need to be replaced not promoted.
