Now, sarcasm aside, the top officials in all these agencies DO NOT WRITE THE RULES. They have folks on staff somewhere who specialize in that ~ and they slip stuff in. What you have in the top staff are the people who give orders, make decisions, send each other out for coffee and croissants and keep likker bottles in their large desk drawer.
Your concern in this issue is about people at the top issuing orders with no regulatory force of law behind them. Jail the bureaucrats at the top.
And yes, the greater part of the federal workforce is made up of postal employees and enlisted personnel. All those other pukes don't know sheiss!

You must KNOW better than this. The criminal acts being done by the Obama administration are not (with relatively rare and widely scattered exceptions) being done by low level maverick bureaucrats “slipping stuff in”. They are being perpetrated at the specific directions that are coming down from high in the administration. There is a reason that Obama and his handlers placed Cass Sunstein in the newly created position of “the regulatory czar”.
The statists know that they can accomplish much of their agenda not by passing actual laws (for which they would not usually have the votes) but instead through use of the regulation writing process and decisions/directives coming from unelected lifetime judges. And believe me, Cass Sustein and the huge number of political appointees that Obama has scattered in positions of authority/influence throughout the various federal agencies are not spending their time “sending out for coffee and croissants”. They are instead very deliberately doing every thing they can do to advance their causes, destroy their enemies and our liberties. They are doing everything they can to destroy the American economy and productivity.
