Re: Murthy's Confirmation Barely Passes
That worthless bum Kirk (IL) is to blame for this one. The confirmation went through by one vote and it's his fault in this case.
It's fine if you disagree. I can't force you to be correct.

No. He can make recommendations, and counsel Obama on memoranda and executive orders, but he does not actually have the power to enforce regulation. The other thing is, Congress might take the issues out of his hands, if the administration pushes too hard.sbrawley wrote:As a Surgeon General, does he even have the authority to pull this off?anygunanywhere wrote:New Surgeon General Vivek Murthy Has a Plan to Ration Guns, Limit Ammo One Can Buy

Elections have consequences, to quote the current presidential poseur. Yes. Take back the White House..... although from my perspective some of the republican frontrunners would not be that big of an improvement either.bigity wrote:How do we get rid of this guy? Take back the White House?
