What's going on here?

[Wait4Truth]

Gee, I thought the firings were all the Bush Administration's fault! Hahahahaha! The losers lose again.

Notra Trulock needs to be rehired and the Justice Department clintooon cronies hold overs need to be prosecuted I wager the firing at Los Alamos were directed by the slick mister.

[Auntie Mame]

Good question.

This whole mess of UC being allowed to mismanage the Los Alamos operation smelled from the start. I don't know who sponsors UC but the contract with UC should terminated and the managment should be investigated for criminal activities. There have been too many questionable activities to believe that they are just oversights. The UC reaction has always been cover up and stall.

I have been writing about this for a while. see my articles at www.aim.org. This is good news. Unprecedented I think. Maybe somebody is finally going to clean that swamp up. This is a start at least.

OKCSubmariner asked me, on another forum, to give your book a plug. So let me do so, in OKC's words:

Notra's book is published by Encounter books. It can be ordered for $18.87 at Amazon.com at this link: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1893554511/qid%3D1042908922/sr%3D11- 1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/104-6166619-5645515
