The other day I did a brief post about Michelle Obama and the contract that was awarded by her employer to one of her husband’s political cronies. I thought I was done with it, but the Blackwell deal gave off such a stench that I decided to do a longer piece. Here’s a taste:
The people who run the University of Chicago Medical Center may live to rue the day they hired Mrs. Obama. The Post story quotes a UCMC spokeswoman who says that the Senator’s wife “was not involved in the selection process,” and it may well be true that she didn’t put her hands on her hips, smite the floor with her expensive heel, and order cowering underlings to give the intranet project to her husband’s patron. Nonetheless, the Blackwell deal hardly passes the smell test, and CMS has a very sensitive nose.
Read the entire piece in the American Spectator.
