Sounds like these IGs are “going Galt”. When will they call off the vultures?

Sorry, I admit that I don’t know much about IGs, but I don’t get something here…

Inspectors General, which were created by Congress,

How can the president fire an IG (Walpin) when the IGs seem to be under the authority of congress?? Especially when they are supposed to

operate without political pressure or interference

Oh yeah….Hey LGM – Bush is bad when he fires 8 US Attorneys – apparently for refusing to prosecute certain cases (remember, the pres IS the head of the executive branch – which is charged by the Constitution to enforce the laws passed by the legislative branch), but you’re OK with Slick Willy firing all 93 US Attorneys for no freakin’ reason at all??
Explanation???

in the mind of a liberal

John424: Most liberals have no mind, they merely plug into the 'borg and repeat the mantra of the day. lgm reminds me of Curly (of the 3 Stooges, not the current VP, who actually has far less talent) who once said, "I'm trying to think, but nuttin's happenin'!"
