I don't necessarily blame the administrators for that. I think the guy should have been fired, but that is a gesture more than a fix.
But his predecessor/replacement (Kiley) has been saying it was this new guys fault, and that it all happened on his watch (like all of these bad things happened since August). It was _that_ behavior I was criticizing. That Kiley and his superiors have chosen one guy to be the blamed individual, and probably have ordered him to fall on his sword. If it is a matter of money, why the hell didn't Kiley look into the camera during his primetime TV interviews and say that? I know it is not cowardice (even though I called him that before). But I just have never understood the "stay within the system, don't rock the boat, and pass the blame downhill" mentality he is showing. Where the hell are all the "patriots" now? All the politicians, talking heads, and drum beaters? Where the hell is Cheney, Rumsfeld, and his whole group on this issue? I gave $50 to the fallenheroes fund. Not enough, but what I could at the time. I wonder how much they gave? I plan on giving more, regularly. It isn't much, but better than nothing. If I had _any_ say at all in where my tax dollars went, not a penny would go overseas, and not a single piece of pork would be bought, until these debts of honor were paid. It probably means very little, but I tremendously appreciate the sacrifice. Thank you for your service. And tell your "boy" thank you for his service. I won't apoligize to him or you for not doing enough. Instead, I will promise to write my congess people tonight, and each week until something moves on this.
