Annoyed Obama demands fix
An agitated President Barack Obama has expressed frustration to Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius about the faulty ObamaCare enrollment website.
President Obama behind closed doors has made clear to Sec Sebelius that it’s her responsibility to fix what has become an unwanted second-term blunder, according to senior administration officials. White House officials say the strong words from President Obama don’t mean Sec Sebelius is necessarily in the doghouse, but that she’s responsible for fixing the problem. According to one senior administration official, “She’s in a tough spot. She’s on the hook.” “His management style isn’t to berate people,” one senior administration official said. “It’s to make people do better. It’s not just directed at Kathleen; it’s directed at everybody.” He had made clear, according to aides, that he would like Sec Sebelius to stay on while the website issues are resolved. “She and the team will get this done,” one senior administration official said, without predicting how long that might take.
