The most transparent administration evah continues to be, well, as clear as mud.
Rep. Charles Rangel reportedly has struck a deal with the congressional panel investigating alleged ethics violations.
A deal. What kind of a deal we don't know, but this begs the question - WHY? The man that sat as Chairman of the Ways and Means committee is up on tax violation and ethics charges. That committee deals with, um, TAXES, among other things. And he's getting a deal?? Didn't San Fran Nan suggest that she was prepared to "drain the swamp" recently?

But now Neil Barofsky is embroiled in a dispute with the Obama administration that delayed one recent inquiry and sparked questions about his ability to freely investigate.
Now before any one brings up well Bush fired the 9 US Attorneys. There is a big difference between a US Attorney, and IG's office the attorneys work at the pleasure of the President, and he can hire and fire them as many times as he wants to.
