Ex-Director Pierson

She represents the type of government we all fear. Uncaring. Unconcered. Unmoved by the effects of her actions.

Secret Service Congressional HearingDid you see the director of the Secret Service resigned? Julia Pierson was more likely pushed then jumped. Same result.

She was promoted to clean up the mess from the South American prostitution scandal. Instead, the Secret Service’s ability to do its main job is now in question.

The only perfect security systems are run by villains in James Bond movies. Even those go down in the end. No one’s perfect. But today the Secret Service doesn’t seem to rise to mediocre.

I watched some of Director Pierson’s testimony before Congress yesterday. She represents the type of government we all fear. Uncaring. Unconcered. Unmoved by the effects of her own actions.

She danced around questions, copping an attitude. It was horrible. I was stunned.

I’ll say it. She didn’t give a shit.

Nobody wants to experience the humiliation Ms. Pierson experienced yesterday, but I can think of few more appropriate occasions.

I’m hoping for better in the future.

  1. From the moment this woman opened her mouth-I knew she was incompetent of running anything. I would really like to know-who put her in charge? That person should resign too! Pathertic!

  2. Many of these government agencies have bureaucracies that just are rotten from the inside out, not just the top down.

    Hopefully the person brought in to replace her will do a much better job.
