Nancy Killefer, the management consultant and former Treasury official who had been picked by President Obama to serve as the country's chief performance officer, has withdrawn from consideration for the post, White House officials confirmed this morning.
In a two-paragraph letter, Killefer indicated that controversy over failure to pay taxes by two other high-profile nominees of Obama's had persuaded her to decline the new president's request to join his administration. Killefer had a tax lien placed on her house by the D.C. government in 2005 because she had not paid unemployment taxes for her household help. She resolved the problem five months after the lien was filed, but the Associated Press wrote about it shortly after Killefer was nominated in early January.
At what point do libs start to get that this Obama administration is bad news?
