REI CEO to head Interior?

[MThuntr]

Will the whole department start wearing sandals to work? Granola in all the vending machines?

A lot of them already do

How much actual say do you all think she'll really have in setting policy? Given this administration, and how Washington works generally, she'll go along with whatever policies and views are en vogue with the ruling party. Whoever gives the President and his party the most money is who sets the policy and Jewell will carry it out, else she'll be replaced.

So, don't expect much.

Another Obama puppet.

If I remember correctly, wolves were delisted under the Obama Administration, and I remember former Interior Secretary Ken Salazar taking a lot of heat for that when he announced the decision. So by your line of thinking, hunters gave more money to Obama than the wolf huggers?

*shrug*

I could be wrong. Strange and unexpected things sometimes happen with the government, I know I work for it, but eventually things revert to the mean. I hope she turns out good for hunting, and lord knows I've spent a lot of money at REI, but despite your example I'm staying skeptical for the time being.

Will Dept employee's be driving Subaru Outbacks?

'Detroit' is where all the vehicles have to come from. Yet, bailing out Detroit was one of the reasons DOI employees pay was frozen for a couple of years.
