Just six months into his presidency, President Barack Obama's administration is the target of a federal lawsuit, and that by a civil servant who alleges he was dismissed from his post in violation of the requirements of a law that Barack Obama himself once sponsored in the Senate.

Not a bad place to land.

Walpin’s firing is exactly the sort of story that in the Bush administration would have become a huge scandal, reverberating for weeks, months, or even years. Yet it is virtually ignored because it has the potential for making Obama look bad or even criminal.
