The way I see it!

1-There was once, perhaps it still applies today, a saying in the business world, refered to as the "Peter Principle." It went something like this, but there could be several renditions...one advances up the success ladder until you reach the level of you incompancy. Example: The recent top CEO/President at P@G Bob McDonald "fired" after <4years OJT. He didn't produce the growth and profitability required by shareholders. 2-Notice the above was about the business world. Anything goes, if one is a civil servant. Screwup and you will be promoted. Case in point: Victory McNuland of DOS kept refinding and refinding the SOS, NSC, CIA, FBI SOD talking point over a deadly incident known as the Benghazi Debacle, so as to have little or no impact to the POTUSA who was running for relection in < 3 months. Another case in Point: Ms Lois Lerner at IRS in charge of Tax-Exempt status CTPR groups and hiding news from Congress, is up to her neck in IRS alligators and is slated before the Senate Investinging Sub-Committee. She shows up, tells the world she is innocent, immediately takes the 5th, and leads a trail of lawyers out of Senate Hearing Room. I bet she return to testify soon. 3-There is another IRS person, Shara Ingram is also tied up in the above IRS scandal is being promoted to head up the IRS inforcement of O'Care. This person will also testify before Congress following Lerner.
