In the view of some critics, Donna E. Shalala is a bleeding-heart liberal, turned loose in the biggest domestic federal agency. But the new Health and Human Services Secretary has a strong pragmatic streak. And the President seems to have hired her less as an architect of social policy than as a general contractor.
在一些批评者看来,唐娜·E·沙拉拉是个心慈手软的自由主义者,被放任掌管联邦政府最大的国内事务机构。但这位新任卫生与公众服务部部长有着很强的务实倾向。而且总统雇用她,似乎与其说是把她当作社会政策的规划者,不如说是当作总承包商。
