Shrub thinks Whistleblowers are dirty little Tattle Tails



WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 - Over strenuous objections from the Bush administration, Congress is moving to increase protections for federal employees who expose fraud, waste and wrongdoing inside the government.

Lawmakers of both parties say the measures are needed to prevent retaliation against such whistleblowers, who reveal threats to public health, safety and security but the administration says the bill unconstitutionally interferes with the president's ability to control and manage the government.


from The New York Times



The current administration doesn't want federal employees to be protected from retaliation because he thinks that all its going to lead to is needless litigation, because Whistleblowing is the exact same thing as some yahoo suing Wal-Mart for a slip and fall! Keeping secrets secret, is so much important to the current administration than calling attention to harmful or needlessly expensive situations.

Federal Employees trying to save tax money and protecting American Lives = Trial Lawyers and Needless Litigation. Shrub hates Americans.
