I can understand the Republicans though. Historically, they've always stepped back and let the ~~opposition hang itself~~ the base erode through inaction.

I fixed it for you.

I'm just making an observation. Not agreeing or disagreeing with what the Republicans are doing.

I think this is an EXTREMELY important issue, too, mentioned in this story:

Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) is seeking information from AmeriCorps about the Walpin firing. The top Republican on the Senate Finance Committee is also seeking information on documents that had allegedly been withheld from Neil Barofsky, the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Assets Relief Program (SIGTARP), the $700-billion financial bailout package launched last fall.

SIGTARP happened on Bush's watch, but considering Obama's pledge and presidental directive toward open government ... WHY is Obama withholding SIGTARP documents from the overseeing IG?

BTW, Neil Barofsky is a Bush IG appointee, too.
