WHO KNEW THE INTERIOR DEPT KNEW HOW TO PARTY?

woo hoo! let's talk about forestry management, yeah!
"Wide-Ranging Ethics Scandal Emerges at Interior Dept."

Some gems from this investigation:

“A culture of ethical failure”

"a dysfunctional organization that has been riddled with conflicts of interest, unprofessional behavior and a free-for-all atmosphere for much of the Bush administration’s watch."

"officials accepted gifts from energy companies whose value exceeded limits set by ethics rules — including golf, ski and paintball outings; meals and drinks; and tickets to a Toby Keith concert, a Houston Texans football game and a Colorado Rockies baseball game."

"several of the officials “frequently consumed alcohol at industry functions, had used cocaine and marijuana, and had sexual relationships with oil and gas company representatives.”"

"The culture of the organization “appeared to be devoid of both the ethical standards and internal controls sufficient to protect the integrity of this vital revenue-producing program."

Message to the Dems: Jump. On. This. You. Fools.
