The incompetence of everyone in this administration from Shrub on down
is phenomenal. This could be the dumbest administration ever.

Report Faults Interior Appointee
Landowner Issues Trumped Animal Protections, IG Says

By Juliet Eilperin
Washington Post Staff Writer
Friday, March 30, 2007; Page A05

A senior Bush political appointee at the Interior Department has
repeatedly altered scientific field reports to minimize protections
for imperiled species and disclosed confidential information to
private groups seeking to affect policy decisions, the department's
inspector general concluded.

The investigator's report on Julie A. MacDonald, deputy assistant
secretary for fish and wildlife and parks -- which was triggered by an
anonymous complaint from a Fish and Wildlife Service employee and
expanded in October after a Washington Post article about MacDonald --
said she frequently sought to reshape the agency's scientific reports
in an effort to ease the impact of agency decisions on private
landowners.

So you're saying the federal guvmint doesn't work?
Horrors! Oh wait, it hasn't worked for years and decades. There was a
report yesterday that meat inspectors, who are supposed to inspect meat
packing plants on a daily basis, had not been doing so since the early 1970s
! They inspected 250 plants about every two weeks instead. NICE WORK
USDA !
