If I were to give her the benefit of the doubt, I'd say that Kathleen Sebelius honestly doesn't know who she works for. Perhaps she incorrectly believes her superior is the President of the United States. Possibly, she's convinced herself that she works for "the government." It's even conceivable that she's operating under as though she works for the Department of Health and Human Services.
Unfortunately, she clearly doesn't feel that she works for the American taxpayer.
When asked what she thought of people who suggest she should resign in shame due to the botched Obamacare launch, Sebelius was arrogant and dismissive.
"Who have you fired?" a reporter asked Sebelius yesterday.
"No one has been fired. My goal is to actually get the website up and running.” she replied.
The reporter quickly fired back, "What is your response to people who are calling for you to resign?"
“Well. The majority of people calling for me to resign, I would say, are people who I don’t work for and who do not want this program to work in the first place. I have had frequent conversations with the president and I have committed to him that my role is to get the program up and running and we will do just that.”
So, if you think Sebelius should remove herself from the position she's so badly mismanaged, you've been put on notice. You're just one of the many, many people she doesn't work for.
