I don't think impeachment is necessary for non-political employees. Criminal sanctions will be plenty. These things take time. Issa is laying the groundwork.

Here's your problem. The agency heads work for Obama. They are not going to fire these people. Besides the objective is to GET THEM TO TALK and implicate higher ups.

They'll talk. Your typical career federal employee simply won't risk his or her own lifetime credit rating and employability.

They will talk.

And the agency heads can't fire them all.

I'd go through the materials they have on hand at the committee and begin identifying some of these lower ranking career employees and just drop a subpoena on them OVERNIGHT. Begin the hearing on THOSE PEOPLE instantly.
