Obama to Bypass Senate to Name Health Official. So What Else is New?

The New York Times reports that Obama, in his usual sneaky way, will appoint  Dr. Donald M. Berwick to run Medicare and Medicaid.  This is a man who thinks the medical system in Great Britain is the bee's knees and medical rationing is the solution to all our problems.

In two decades as a professor of health policy and as a prolific writer, Dr. Berwick has championed the interests of patients and consumers. At the same time, he has spoken of the need to ration health care and cap spending, has supported efforts to “reduce the total supply of high-technology medical and surgical care” and has expressed great admiration for the British health care system.
