If the agency can punish whistleblowers with impunity, it need not fear oversight.

What, pray tell, is “outside” whistleblowing? There is such a thing as “inside” whistleblowing?

There’s no “chain of command.” They’re civilians.

How does our Government treat whistleblowers?

http://blog.vigilantvote.com/2012/07/10/how-does-our-government-treat-whistle-blowers/

They punish them. Is it against the law?

THIS is the Obama administration. THERE IS NO LAW.

Obstruction of Justice.

Holder belongs in Federal Prison.

There needs to be a “faux leak” from Issa’s committee, with a list of individuals involved in the scandal, who the intent is to criminally indict. With a few obvious omissions.

This would both scare those who are involved, and suggest that those not on the list are going to be “cooperating witnesses”, and are thus enemies of everyone on the list.

The idea being that some of those on the list will bolt, and approach the committee with information in the hope of not being sent to prison.

In any event, with such a hoax, morale goes out the window, as does any illusion of being “stand up guys”. None of them want to ‘take the hit’ for Holder or even Obama.

It could very well turn a leak into a flood.

This official threat will anger and energize more would-be whistle blowers than it will stifle.
