Interesting transcript between Homeland Security Inspector General Clark Kent Ervin and Rep. Mark Soulder R-IN.

Homeland Security Told to Clean Up Act

Two week's resolution??? We can only hope!

A congressman (gasp) on OUR side?! YEAH! Hopefully our almost two years of turmoil is coming to a close.

I find it to be embarrassing that the DHS got into this. I thought that their goal was to keep America safe from terrorists, not non-profits. just hope that in two weeks OBC can have had all their transfer worries gone away. smile

Judy,

This is just about the best news I've heard since the announcement about the 2005 Reunion. Thanks for letting us know. And please keep us posted.

I wonder if the IG person was speaking out of the corner of his mouth. The OBC has done an outstanding job and certainly deserve to be treated better. Hopefully the issue will be resolved expeditiously and in OBC's favor. smile

It's appalling that the precious time of Homeland security is being wasted by a number of jerks who could care less about lighthouses but just want to get their claws into the monies and money source. mad

Yippeeeeeeeeee!!!! Wouldn't this make a great news story on National News since we are concerned about terrorists and Homeland Security is involved in a petty issue. Maybe we should send it to Dan Rather.

Goes to prove there are some good elected officials laugh (they just don't get much press).
