Dear President Obama: Fire somebody and show that you are in charge

(My new American Thinker post)

By any executive 101 standard, President Obama is failing and failing big:

1) Hold your subordinates responsible; and,

2) Make adjustments.

Speaking of accountability, let's start with Secretary Sebelius.  Why does this lady still have a job, especially after her hilarious appearance with John Stewart?

Let's look at Secretary Sebelius's performance, as Tom Bevan posted:  

"Sebelius' department had 3½ years to prepare to implement the Affordable Care Act. No one ever suggested that commandeering one-sixth of the American economy would be an easy task. (Many Republicans suggested the opposite and were dismissed as killjoys for their efforts.) But after the debacle of the last two weeks, liberals and Democrats-not conservatives or Republicans-should be calling for Sebelius's head." 

Life is not fair and it's not all Secretary Sebelius' fault.  However, she is charge!  It's her department.

This is Fast & Furious all over again.  

The second point is executive skills, or the ability to look at something and make adjustments.

Why doesn't President Obama go on TV and make a statement along the following lines: 

"My fellow Americans.  ObamaCare is a mess and it may take a lot more time to fix it.  Nobody knows. Therefore, let's give the experts a chance to fix the "glitches" and delay the implementation for one year."

President Obama will gain in two ways:

1) He will show the country that he's charge; and,

2) He will help red state Democrats who are drowning with ObamaCare.

P.S. You can hear CANTO TALK here.
