Note a recent case in the Supreme Court, Postal Service v. Gregory, in which the female employee hid mail, left work without authority, failed to deliver certified mail, and falsified her overtime requests. This employee had four union grievances, a hearing by an Administrative Law Judge, a hearing by the Merit System Protection Board, a hearing by the Federal Court of Appeals, and now by the Supreme Court.

The case is not yet over. It has been remanded for surther consideration, four years after the Post Office made the decision to fire this "able" employee.

As I said in writing this case up from a legal standpoint, the grateful taxpayers would have been better off by guaranteeing Ms. Gregory her salary for life on the one condition that she never again enter a Post Office except through the front door to buy stamps.

So, you are absolutely right. I did miss something. (I also mistyped "Democrat" as "Deocrat" - which they think they are, anyway, as an earlier poster pointed out.)

Noted (but not surprised). I hadn't heard of that case and I guess I don't have the stomach to hear any more about it.

When all this is said and done it sounds like the new screeners will have about as use properly screening out murdering undesireables from actually getting on airplanes as the North Carolina DMV has screening out illegal aliens from getting drivers licenses.
