The first place to start with this is the hypocrisy. This from the administration that Fired a Department of Energy Employee for telling the truth to Congess after which the DOE strengthened protections for scientists

But it goes on. Forgetting about professional competence in a science and technology agency responsible for nuclear weapons, it hypes "diversity and inclusiveness"

It claims credit for supplying the country with reliable energy, something done by the commercial utility industry.

And this elitist policy wonk with degrees in political science takes credit for supplying science and technology to the country, which she certainly doesn't, but decides that "assembling and distmantling nuclear weapons is an "unglamorour job." http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3513108/posts

It all just says “blah blah blah” to me.

I’ll respect them. I want them all fired, but i’ll respect them if it makes them happy

There’s a price to pay for believing lies.

The first two departments that should be eliminated both have the same initials: DOE.

Anyone who thinks the Federal Government is not at least TWICE the size it should be is insane, pure and simple.

President Trump is being quite gentle when he only proposes a 20% cut.

I don't know whether they believe them, but they make them up and propagate them in wholesale lots.

Since you’ve had gainful employment you’ve paid their salaries - I’d say that’s enough respect.

Time to get them off of your payroll I’d say. And mine too.

How much respect do they show the citizens of this country? We are just so many peasants and serfs to them.

judge them on ideology rather than merit.

That's the funniest thing I've heard all week.

“Federal employees at the Environmental Protection Agency have been instructed to stop defecating in the hallway of a regional office.” I am a retired civil servant. I know how much respect the government deserves. Some are saints, most are time servers, and some cannot control their bowl movements. 20% is a low figure.

Not like the outgoing administration hasn’t judged lots of people on ideology rather than merit.

It’s about time that, oh say, 20% of them fine useful employment in the public sector actualyl producing something of value as opposed to pissing the rest of us off.

Neither the DOEnergy nor NASA need to be working on proving CAGW. Not one dime.
