The government watchdog President Obama canned for allegedly being "confused" and "disoriented" fired back sharply Wednesday, saying the White House explanation for removing him was "insufficient," "baseless" and "absolutely wild."
Gerald Walpin, who until last week was the inspector general for the Corporation for National and Community Service, told FOXNews.com that part of Obama's explanation was a "total lie" and that he feels he's got a target on his back for political reasons.
"I am now the target of the most powerful man in this country, with an army of aides whose major responsibility today seems to be to attack me and get rid of me," Walpin said.

"I would never say President Obama doesn't have the capacity to continue to serve because of his (statement) that there are 56 states," Walpin said, adding that the same holds for Vice President Biden and his "many express confusions that have been highlighted by the media."
Walpin concluded that his firing stems from bad blood between him and the board, as well as with Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson -- an Obama supporter whom he had investigated for alleged misuse of federal funds.

Obama wrote a letter explaining the firing rather than explain to Congress in person for fear of bipartisan criticism.
What a weinie.
There are women in their 20’s who can’t keep their kids’ names straight, but nobody says they’re impaired. 0bama feels secure enough to slander a man in his seventies, not just because of all the zombies who idolize 0bama, but also because this youth-worshipping culture will have us believe anything of an older man. And a white one to boot.
Typical old white person. Glue factory material.
I don’t really care WHY he was fired. HOW he was fired was blatantly illegal no matter what the reason. Discussing the reason or reasons just takes the attention away from the fact that Congress is to be notified in writing 30 days in advance, and that Obama was a co-sponsor of the bill that required that. That’s just brazen.
So glad he spoke out, and he sounds “clear minded”. :) LOL he mentioned the 57 er 56 states. Either one, that’s awesome.
this is like something that would happen in Iran or the Soviet Union. Now a freind of Michelle's is taking over to give away millions of our tax dollars to Community Embezzlanizers
Walpin is old, white, male...that’s a trifecta right there. If he’s also Jewish, he could be the 21st c Dreyfus.
A typed suicide note was found, in a previously empty suitcase, that was torn in pieces. The only piece missing is the signature.
Meanwhile the medical examiner ruled the family dog ate the missing head.
"I objected (to the settlement) because it did not protect the interests of the U.S. government," Walpin wrote in the statement released Wednesday. "I also objected because, in the speed to bow to media and political pressure, the acting U.S. attorney ignored my office's request for further fact-finding into factual representations made by Mr. Johnson's attorneys."
Obama should be impeached and removed for this
this makes Nixon look absloutely innocent in comparison, we are talking felonies here, emezzelment of public funds, covered up by a president with extensive experience at Community Embezzelizing
I hope this guy gives the Obama administration a hard time.
I think Rush will be fired next!
Usurpers don’t get impeached they get arrested....
Damn skippy he’s being targeted.
He’s investigating one of little lord barry’s friends.
“I’m beginning to believe the best way to commit a crime and not go to jail is to be a politician.”
Yeah just look at ted *hic* kennedy.
we are witnessing the robbery and raping of the USA, in broad daylight, by a narcissistic tyrant with extensive experience at his craft
Obama should be impeached
Johnson should go to prison
in a democratic law abiding society
