On Monday, Gov Schwarzenegger replaced most of the members of the CA Board of Registered Nurses. He cited "the unacceptable time it takes to discipline nurses accused of egregious misconduct," according to the LA Times.


He fired 3 board members, including the president, and a 4th resigned. Members were laid off because of a published report that said the board took an average of 3 years and 5 months to investigate complaints against nurses.


What do you think? Did Schwarzenegger make the right call?
