Labor unions fear that if this Homeland Security Agency gets created, it will start a domino effect that will erode career protections for federal civil servants through our government. Considering how arrogant, corrupt and lazy most tax-subsidized civil servants I know are, all I can say is...."Go W. Go!" To further that effort, we at FR could document examples of gross employee incompetence where the perp was no only NOT reprimanded or fired but promoted and given a bonus.
One such example was the recent malfeasance at the American Embassy in Saudi that allowed the hijackers in with faulty applications. In the past I have also read of examples of the government, especially the Defense Dept., credit cards being abused. One woman spent about $80,000 on herself and her son and was Not penalized but was promoted and transferred to another Dept. where she was in charge of credit card expenditures. I am sure that there are many more we could accumulate to illustrate how bad the situation is and why it needs to be changed.

Ha! Would you believe that there was a year-end bonus paid to tax-squandering folks involved with that scandal! For details, just search for the word " friends " at
