Guest Calls Sebelius Questioning ‘Harassment,’ Wolf Blitzer Says: Dem’s Hearings Were ‘Tougher’

CNN guest and progressive blogger Sally Kohn argued forcefully against the Republican questioning of Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on Wednesday afternoon, calling the hearing over the malfunctioning Affordable Care Act website “harassment”—leading CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer to recall his time spent covering the House Energy and Commerce Committee under combative Democratic chairman.

“Let’s take a bigger picture here,” Kohn said. “This was not a hearing. This was harassment. This was Republicans who are tired of flogging the Obamacare bill, saying all right, we’re going to try and flog Kathleen Sebelius. The irony is this is the same committee trying to say, ‘Oh, we’re so concerned people can’t sign up for this thing that we wanted to destroy it in the first place, and meanwhile we’ve been working for weeks to try and log with all these paper requests and all these data processing things and overwhelm all the other places that people can go up around the country to sign up other than the website.’ So they’re literally trying to destroy the path to Obamacare every point. They have no credibility to have a hearing like this.”

1. I fully agree, it was pretty despicable.

2. I can not believe the Repubs are so stupid that they keep

SHOWING THEIR ASSES to the whole world. Keep it up fools.

3. She is completely correct. I was disgusted by what I saw. It would behove the repubs

to put aside the grandstanding and to remember what they were elected for, i.e. to govern for the benefit of their constituents!

4. Absolutely agree. Thuggish, bullying, rude.
