Another cabinet withdrawl: Sen. Gregg no longer SecCommerce
Senator Judd Gregg, a third-term Republican from New Hampshire, withdrew himself from the Secretary of Commerce post today, citing “irresolvable conflicts” regarding the controversial economic stimulus bill, as well as the upcoming 2010 census.
An GOP insider told CNN that Gregg didn’t want to be a “powerless token” and didn’t agree with many of the economic policies, among other things.
Another Obama appointee falls. At least it’s not for tax reasons, but for policy, principle, and philosophy reasons.
