White House lied, appointed pet vet as FDA Womens Health chief.
busted by Google Cache!

Fricking liars. They denied ever attempting to appoint an expert in animal husbandry as FDA Director of Women's Health.

Google cache proves they were lying.

Fricking liars.

Incompetent morons. Can't even lie right.

3. They backed down and appointed the woman

trying to appoint the veterinarian was too reminiscent of their FEMA appointment.

4. Did Maureen Dowd make a reference to the vet and the niece?

I think she did. It's out, maybe it will get some notice. Once again, it's the cover up, stupid.

The vet thing wasn't SO bad except for the unfortunate, unavoidable implication of what George and his GOP friends think of women. It is entirely possible the man could have done a good job. Veterinary medicine has made great strides recently and their is a lot of overlap. The Vet school at Fort Collins, a part of CSU, is quite innovative and has research programs that will impact human medicine. Many think vet school is harder than med school. They have to learn all the anatomies and all the quirky differences in treatments and procedures.

Also, Chertoff's mother was the first flight attendant for EL AL. She participated in an airlift for Yemeni Jews. Just a little factoid to share.

scroll down to political trivia:
