Hawaii Gov. Abercrombie's Health Director Quits Interim Health Director Dr. Neal Palafox Resigns

(AP) HONOLULU - Interim Hawaii Health Director Dr. Neal Palafox abruptly quit Wednesday, the first of new Gov. Neil Abercrombie's Cabinet appointees to leave.

The reason for Palafox's resignation was a mystery, and he wouldn't say whether he was asked to resign.

Abercrombie's office said Palafox asked the Democratic governor to withdraw his nomination.

"Gov. Abercrombie accepted Dr. Palafox's request and will make a new appointment for the Health Director as soon as possible," spokeswoman Donalyn Dela Cruz said in a statement.

The Attorney General's office wouldn't comment on whether it's investigating Palafox, said Joshua Wisch, special assistant to the attorney general.

Palafox, 58, said he was surprised when he heard TV news reports citing anonymous sources claiming he was under investigation for medical billing fraud.

"I get handed these e-mails about investigations and so forth, but I have no clue. I'm lost," Palafox said.

I think this might be a good time to check the fire alarm and sprinkler system at the Hall of Records in Hawaii.

That bears repeating...

Not sayin it's the case, but armies of government medicaid auditors could really enjoy a few years in Hawaii, living in hotels, getting to the bottom of this.

I know some government auditors who happen to spend all winter in Florida and the gulf coast, and summers in Maine and Washington. They take their children along in the summers. Good work for a GS15.

Funny how those audit patterns work out?

Because that fits the Birther narrative nice and well? And when the actual reason comes out, well that’s all proof of Hussein the Kenyan’s coverup?

All misdirection.

IMO the real concern of the administration is
a) Obama's records from universities he attended, where he lied about his status to gain admission; or
b) Obama's Indonesian passport.

“Aw man, I’m sorry!

and I lit up a cigarette, and the wind blew, and the document just went up into smoke.

Oh man, I’m sorry!

Just wow. The opinion of one obscure Founder, twisted to fit the current wishes of a bunch of conspiracy theorists. The simple fact of the matter is that Obama was born in Hawaii to an American mother. He does not have any other citizenships, his Kenyan citizenship expiring in the early 80’s. Therefore, he is an American, natural born citizen. He is thus, being over the age of 35, and having resided in the country for 14 years, eligible to serve, regardless of what some dimestore “historians” and “legal experts” (both a laugh) have to say.

Oh, I can offer a reasonably certain guess.

40 years sharing a medium-security cell with Abercommie after being convicted for conspiracy to commit multiple felonies regarding the Soetoro birth certificate isn't how he wants to spend the rest of his life.


Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

Think of it like a cancer cluster being investigated. Could be random coincidence. Who knows?

But it seems that you are on top of the clustering of coincidences. How many other high level State Health officials have resigned recently? Are you curious? Is your curiosity aroused? Or just spurious interjections of abject disdain?
