reading the article would actually have given you some insight as to Jan’s reasons for posting it…
“At a time when we need serious oversight to make smart cuts, the Appropriations Committee itself admits its proposal will hurt GAO’s ability to do oversight. The committee report concedes “it is evident that many of the services provided by the GAO will be curtailed due to reductions in staff and resources.”
The logic of the committee’s proposal is tough to decipher. Yet, it is clear shooting the messenger (GAO) won’t make the message go away. And the message coming from our citizens and the international financial community is this: if we want our economy to survive and recover we need live within our means. GAO’s recommendations are the place to start cutting, not GAO itself.”
Congress doesn’t like the message…
so it kills the messenger.
is that leadership?
