GOP senator asks hearing witnesses what 'Ebola czar' has been doing -- and gets answers straight from management-speak Dilbert cartoon
[DAILYMAIL.CO.UK]
  • Senators convened Wednesday to hear Ebola funding requests from cabinet-level agencies
  • Alabama Sen. Richard Shelby asked top officials from Homeland Security, HHS and State what Ebola czar Ron Klain 'brings to the table'
  • A 'singular focus on coordinating,' a Pentagon bigwig gushed
  • Klain is 'dedicated full-time in the White House,' said the Homeland Security chief
  • HHS secretary says he has 'added value to our policy coordination'
  • Klain skipped the hearing but appeared on MSNBC to warn that there will be more Ebola cases in the United States

#1 Well, you can't just come out and say he is covering the President's ass. (figuratively, of course) Besides, Klein is busy pro-actively leveraging synergies.

#2 He's exercising his core competencies with a holistic approach geared toward providing deliverables in a timely manner to his direct report per the mission statement.

#5 What do you expect from a guy who has spent his entire career bundling contributions for the Donks.

He doesn't have a clue about epidemiology or contact tracing or contagion processes or incubation periods.

Klain's job is to raise money and sit in the corner and shut up.

#7 Klain in the White House 'doing nothing' is a dream come true. I would hope everyone in the White House did likewise for the next two years.

#8 More ca-ca from this administration. They seem to be in love with the title czar. Stalin was called a General-Secretary. Dictator, dear leader, or party leader are synonyms as well.
