But My Dog Was Available!

President Obama has named DC Democrat political insider Ron Klain as the Ebola Tsar.  Klain has no medical training and no experience in health matters other than his own annual physical examination.  In fact, the lack of medical experience was actually touted by the White House as a good reason for selecting Klain.

Let's be honest.  The Ebola Tsar has to be able to organize and run a major effort, indeed to bring order out of chaos.  Klain has some organizational experience, but no major accomplishments in that regard.  The problem, however, is that the Ebola Tsar ought to be able to recognize good ideas from bad ones.  Without having any medical knowledge, Klain won't even know what questions he should ask.  He certainly won't know the difference between good and bad ideas.  It will be like those managers who oversaw the development of the Obamacare website that failed so spectacularly.  These managers knew nothing about computer programming, so they missed the fact that the website was not even close to being ready when it went live.

The truth is that all that president Obama wants is someone else to blame.  For that, Klain is fine. 

I am annoyed about one thing.  If Obama wanted someone with no medical experience, he could have called my house.  My dog's only contact with medicine are her few run ins with the vet.  She would be perfect to be an Ebola Tsar and she is available.  I believe that Obama's decision to choose Klain over my dog is just another example of discrimination against animals by Obama.
