There is much to like about Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK). His annual Wastebook project has been helpful in exposing wasteful government spending. However, I pause as his recent release of a hold he had placed on Barack Obama’s nominee, Katherine Archuleta, to head the Office of Personal Management (OPM) after a proposed ruling allowed the federal government to subsidize health insurance premiums of Congressional staffers, as well as members of Congress. Coburn blocked Archuleta’s nomination last week after a Senate committee approved her nomination. The approved nomination was to be “an attempt to force OPM to explain its position” on Obamacare subsidies. Fox News reports on the ruling that led to Coburn’s unblocking Archuleta’s nomination.
