New York Times

The aides said Dr. Gerberding told him he would not be reappointed. Dr. Howard had signaled his desire to continue in the job, which pays $174,612 a year, in April in a letter to Michael O. Leavitt, secretary of health and human services.

Calls to Dr. Howard's office in Washington and to the C.D.C. were not immediately returned. But The Associated Press quoted a spokesman for the agency, Glen Nowak, as saying that Dr. Gerberding had decided to "go in a different direction."

I wonder if Dr. Howard is going to become an author. It's all the rage with former government workers, I hear. Especially those whom clashed with the White House. I guess he failed to read the memo about glorifying the efforts of the White House and President Bush at ground zero.

Naughty naughty. Mustn't sully the image of the Great Savior.

Control

Politics is the control of wealth and power. You are being conditioned to condemn politics as petty and boring, thus granting all the more control to the powers that be. You are either a part of the problem or a part of the solution. The choice is yours.
