Are under systematic attack by this administration.
Well, of course. IGs are very inconvenient when you are systematically corrupt.
[Early afternoon update]
Post title has been corrected. As with attorney’s general, “Inspector” is the noun, “General” is the adjective. Which is why it’s a terrible error to call them (for example) “General Holder.”
“The most transparent administration ever” a campaign promise that lasted until the first Wednesday of November 2008.
This has to stop:
The employee has over 7,000 P files on his computer and even watched porn when inspector general agents visited his office, Deputy Assistant Inspector General Allan Williams testified in a statement submitted to the committee. He makes over $120,000 a year and he even received performance awards for his time at the agency. And this man is still employed at the EPA, even though he confessed to the time he spent viewing the Pography.
This is the stuff that the Obama Administration allows to happen with taxpayer dollars. And it is not about the P, why the hell this civil servant allowed to do this? He’s not protecting the environment, so why does he have a job at the EPA? Who hired him? More importantly, who is refusing to fire him? Why does the person that could fire him not care about the environment? Why is that supervisor have a job at the EPA?
Oh, but it’s Issa, so it is just a witch hunt. Go ahead, go back to your porn. There’s just 100,000 more employees in federal civil service for Obama than under Bush, what’s one more?

Under Civil Service laws, it’s very hard to fire a government civilian employee. While those laws were enacted decades ago to prevent the abuses of the old spoils system, they allow a different set of abuses today. Those laws should be reviewed and changed.
