Default Big Trouble at Los Alamos Labs

CBS News carried the story tonight of how in the course of his job at
Los Alamos (as an auditor, I think) this poor fellow uncovered millions
in government waste. When he was told by his superiors to stop, he
reported it. CBS also showed before and after pictures of him. Why
hasn't his story made the Google News front page?

What's your prediction? Will the Republicans in Congress give it any
more than lip service? (You know, the Grassley brush-off.) Will Bush's
new Attorney General do anything about it? Will the FBI ever jail
anybody?

How many crimes will have to go unpunished before people get some
respect for trying to save lives in the course of their work, or for
reporting "Drano" trails in federal expenditures?

Hmmm....

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Authorities said Thursday that the beating of a Los
Alamos nuclear lab auditor outside a bar was unrelated to his status as a
whistleblower.

My prediction is that our Whistleblower may need to go back and take some
Drivers Education classes.

The investigation is "leaning?" That's precariously loose terminology.

Since you're speculating, I'll add my two cents. To me, it seems rather
late for news of a struck pedestrian to be surfacing.

They say you can't fight "city hall." Nevertheless, didn't someone
successfully fight Tammany Hall?
