Inspectors General Say Obama Administration Obstructing Justice

He's Got A Secret.....


Ah yes,--transparency promised, opaqueness presented. Nothing that comes out of this man's mouth is believable, and that does not bode well for our system of government. 
The fact that over half of the IGs are complaining that they are being stonewalled by the agencies they are required to monitor over document requests is clearly over the top!

From The Daily Signal: "On Aug. 5, 47 of the federal government’s 73 inspectors general, many of whom were appointed by President Obama, sent their letter to Issa, Sen. Thomas Carper (D-Del.), and the ranking members of the House Oversight and Government Reform and Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committees — essentially pleading with Congress to help the IGs do their jobs uncovering waste, mismanagement, fraud, and corruption within their respective agencies.

In the letter, the IGs complain about the “serious limitations on access to records that have recently impeded the work” of IGs at the Peace Corps, the EPA, and the Department of Justice. Administration lawyers have construed laws related to privilege in “a manner that would override the express authorization contained in the IG Act” and seriously impede the “ability [of the IGs] to conduct our work thoroughly, independently, and in a timely manner.”
