Claire McCaskill questions Obama about the firing of Gerald Walpin

June 16, 2009

Republicans have been joined by Senator Claire McCaskill in demanding a reason for the firing of Inspector General Gerald Walpin. Byron York reports that the Missouri democrat released a statement asking for an explanation. Sen. McCaskill co-wrote last year’s legislation requiring 30 days’ notice and cause before an IG can be fired.

The White House has failed to follow the proper procedure in notifying Congress as to the removal of the Inspector General for the Corporation for National and Community Service.  The legislation which was passed last year requires that the president give a reason for the removal. “Loss of confidence” is not a sufficient reason.  I’m hopeful the White House will provide a more substantive rationale, in writing, as quickly as possible.

I hope she isn’t holding her breath.

    We also need to make a stink about his firing…because you know this is just the tip of the iceburg.

    We cannot allow Obama and friends to sink our country. This is OUR COUNTRY and she deserves to be fought for over and over and over.
