Don’t worry. The media will raise such a stink that they won’t dare go through with it!

They all do this. Some of the senior federal civil service positions are political appointees. Those jobs are exempt from civil service competition. The rest of the jobs remain under the same ole rules.
Incoming administrations all do this . . nothing really new here.
Welcome to the Obama Junta folks.
One more fascist marker, and they are adding up.
These are Civil servants...big difference than pol appointees.
What’s next? No Republicans in the upper reaches of the military.
What next Republican Administration? The one that takes office after the next dinosaur killer hits?
Saddam Hussein, on 22 July 1977, purged the Baath party, government and military...hundreds executed.
True, but GWB did not do it, and the Democrat holdovers resisted his policies at every opportunity.
That is one of the most significant mistakes of his Presidency.
When Sarah is elected, you can bet she will go through those bureaucracies and sweep out every single lib she can identify.
It's really hard to believe that "W" failed to deal with the Clintonista holdovers.
They will do it. And there is nothing we can do about it. America is in the process of conversion to a communist Nation and it is getting more solid by the day. Overthrowing King Obama and his corrupt communists administration will be one heck of a fight.
The Racist Government is filled with minorities as it is.
OK am I reading this wrong, but are they saying they will terminate civil service employees who originated as political appointments from the Bush administration? I thought they could not be fired (for being political appointees) once they “crossed over” into civil service? How can you “retroactively” change job requirements? Or are they just doing what Bush should have done and getting rid of political appointees?
“When Sarah is elected, you can bet she will go through those bureaucracies and sweep out every single lib she can identify.”
Good point, but she probably won’t have to. The Obama fascists will leave on their own first.
The countermove is both simple and deadly: We must make it abundantly, publically clear that the same thing will be done in reverse, and that the current purge can and will be used to deflect and ignore all complaints.
I read the memo. I dont see anything indicating that this policy is retroactive. It starts in January of next year. Has nothing to do with purging Republicans.
He’s trying to be a warlord, for _(*& sake.
Nixon tried stuff like this and the lib-press called it a Constitutional crisis.
I seriously doubt they will. They will stay as entrenched as they possibly can and then do whatever they can to slow, soften or misdirect her policies.
She will need to fumigate the place fully.
It is the privilege of the incoming administration to purge.
Just like a typical Bush though, GW wouldn’t kick the damn corrupt creepy Clintonistas out on their asses when he took office and they stabbed him repeatedly in the back for 8 years. With few he did fumigate, MSM and the whinners whinned incessantly, of course, and Bush refused to stand up to it. What a chump.
It’s a chronic problem with elitist right of center, they have a big tick about having to be “gracious” and “getting along.” Unfortunately, we’re headed toward totalitarian rule due to their weakness. It’s utterly pathetic to watch.
Now it’s time to “purge” the Republican party of these chumps. If we ever get a chance (though doubtful) to purge the White House and rep branches of the filth that’s invested Washington, we’ll have a few Republicans who have grown a backbone.
Clarke, Wilson, Plame, Hansen. Any questions?
