What's behind Obama's sudden attempt to fire the AmeriCorps inspector general? | Washington Examiner

What's behind Obama's sudden attempt to fire the AmeriCorps inspector general? | Washington Examiner:

There are a number of unanswered questions today about President Obama's abrupt decision to fire the inspector general of the AmeriCorps program, Gerald Walpin. Obama sent letters to House and Senate leaders yesterday informing them that he was firing Walpin, effective 30 days from the date of the letters.

'It is vital that I have the fullest confidence in the appointees serving as Inspectors General,' the president wrote. 'That is no longer the case with regard to this Inspector General.'"
