== Perceptive transparency ==
Regarded as "a seat warmer in the public face" by [[Michelle Malkin]] during an interview with [[Glenn Beck]], Malkin commented on the significance of Nancy DeParle's role as the "Health Czar"<ref>[http://glennbeck.blogs.foxnews.com/2009/06/09/rise-of-the-czars/ Rise of the Czars], FOXNews.com, June 9th, 2009.</ref> in the [[White House]].
{{cquote|[W]hat's fascinating to me is that you've got this conglomerate of far leftists and then you also have these entrenched corporate statists and we've got Nancy DeParle who I highlight in the [[book]], [''Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats, Crooks, and Cronies''], who is the healthcare czar who oversees the cabinet confirmed secretary [[Kathleen Sebelius]] who is out there sort of as a seat warmer in the public face. But behind the scenes this is the woman who is really pulling the strings and she's made upwards of $6 million consulting for healthcare lobbyists and firms. I don't have a problem with that but, of course, she serves a president and a first lady by extension who have done nothing but demonize people who have made [[money]] in the private market. And the issue there, of course, goes back to [[transparency]]. The White House has been meeting in secret with these healthcare executives. Only under threat of lawsuit did they name those executives. The legal counsel still refuses to tell us which healthcare officials in the Obama administration met with them and she has clear conflicts of interest, financial ties to many of these executives. We need to know that but unfortunately Obama lied and transparency died.<ref>[http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/28817/ Glenn Beck: Czars Czars and more Czars!], GlennBeck.com, August 3, 2009.</ref>}}
