For all those who revel in the fact that there are 374 days until President Obama finally gets the hell out of the White House, a cautionary note: Obama and his colleagues are rigging the bureaucracy so that their unique brand of "hope and change" extends far beyond their tenure.
The latest evidence: Attorney General Loretta Lynch told New York Magazine this week, "My goal is to position the [Department of Justice] where it will carry on in all of these issues long after myself and my team have moved on." She was responding specifically to questions about how she planned to prosecute gun sellers under Obama's new executive actions.
Lynch, unlike her predecessor Eric Holder, isn't a bomb-thrower. Like President Obama before his self-deification, Lynch hides behind vagary and a general sense of reasonableness. "We went in thinking We're going to ask her the toughest questions we can come up with," says Steven Edwards, a lawyer who interviewed Lynch for a local bar publication. "And we couldn't lay a glove on her." As New York Magazine states, Lynch simply ran out the clock on Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-TX) questions to her during her confirmation hearings.

A complete Tabula Raza of all federal departments is necessary after B. Hussein’s departure.
I have no thoughts they would not.
That is why all these depts need clearing out
They’ve already done this in the Intel and Military communities.
At least at EPA we can shut them down and void their regulations.
Bush never dared to do that. And unless Trump or Cruz want to spend their entire terms in office fighting class action wrongful termination suits backed by Big Left Money, they probably won't, either.
That’s why all the US Attorneys need to be told “You’re Fired!”
And whole departments need to be closed. Millions of overpaid federal “workers” need to be fired and their pensions defaulted. We are at $200 Trillion in unfunded liabilities.
There isn’t that much money in the world.
I wonder if the Obama people will remove the ‘T’s for Trump from the keyboards, like the Clinton people removed the ‘W’s for Bush. Just askin.
Make note next President. Total, full scale purge of DOJ on day 1. They have completely corrupted this organization.
The new administration can select their management, offer retirement packages to those they want to replace, cut budgets, stop promotions and pay increases, give poor yearly performance reviews and much more. Those supporting the lefts agenda in the DOJ will be frustrated, unhappy and powerless. Lynch will not have her way once she leaves you can bet on it.
I agree. I think only Trump has the Kevlar to do this-—don’t know if he has the contact roladex. That’s why he needs Cruz on the ticket. This would precusely be Ted’s strength.
Reagan did it, more or less. I am as worried about GOPe holdovers as libs.
Public sector unions are losing their power...
Unions Appear Headed for Supreme Court Loss

Braggadocio from one loser for another.
“Obama’s work”. Sticking it to da honkies.
Congress has allowed all this for too long.. and will continue to do so.. UNLESS there is some personality who will be brave enough to take all this on... and do it quickly.. Fire who he has to, change what he has to, fight this fight to restore us again... and you know who has the will to do this... Trump! Cruz, maybe... but the rest are not strong enough to fight against all this.
Are keyboard keys still removable without whacking them on the desktop even harder than Lois Lerner slammed her laptop?
My prediction is that the interior of federal gov't offices will look like Detroit crack houses if Trump wins. (I'll also predict that unlike Bush, Trump will prosecute them.)
They are reviewing history and saw that W left all of klintoons lackies in-place to maintain the effect.
They now must be basing their plan on Yeb “3” getting in and pulling the same dumb stunt.
And some even here in FR think Lynch will transcend her total devotion to Obama by indicting Hillary.
It is to laugh.
Trump is likely to be the one to ‘not worry about those low level folks’ and leave them all there as he will egotistically assume they will fear him so much to not work in the shadows to undermine the undoing of nobama’s tyranny.
