I think Lisa Gutierrez of the Kansas City Star sort of has a point here:
President Barack Obama kissed former Kansas governor Kathleen Sebelius Tuesday night after she was sworn in as Health and Human Services Secretary in the Oval Office.
She was immediately dispatched to a top-level briefing about the swine flu outbreak.
Maybe they should have just stuck with the handshake?
Still, it’s nice to finally have an HHS Secretary.
