Unfortunately, the incompetent federal swamp extends far beyond Foggy Bottom. Tell me, which federal agency seems to you to be trustworthy and is doing a good job for its boss, all American citizens. Name one (besides the Military). Don't feel bad if you can't -- I can't either. The FBI is a joke and the CIA worse (even Porter Goss failed to get it under control). Then add in a massive federal bureaucracy whose only interest is remaining employed (protecting their own rice bowls), doing as little as possible while maximizing their own pay and perks (much like our political hacks in what we laughingly refer to as "Congress").
No argument.
I’d like the next Republican president to obtain a two-year moratorium on ALL civil service rules, allowing a total make-over of all federal agencies with no promises to preserve any one’s job or to keep them on the federal payroll at all.
