[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Umm, what's wrong with any of this?[/quote]

The part where it says “How would you help advance the President’s Executive Orders and policy priorities in this role” is the [i]last[/i] thing any of us should want for federal hires. This is asking explicitly for people who have a partisan leaning. Why would it be good for the country if we hire only people who have a political bent? That’s exactly what the current administration has been trying (incompetently and ill-advisedly) to find and weed out. [/quote]

Umm, you work for the President. If you can't work with his priorities and orders, then you shouldn't work for the Government. [/quote]

That's not true in any sense. Is your post satire...or are you genuinely this ignorant?[/quote]

I can’t believe this. When I first came to DC I asked a guard how to get into the Supreme Court. He said, “through the front doors. It belongs to the people.”

Honestly I weep for the low expectations. Have some awareness of what’s ours as Americans. Don’t tread on me refers to the government, not liberals. [/quote]

I don’t live in DC, but my family spent lots of time there several years ago because dh is a fed. I loved how we could just wander around federal buildings, historical sites, and museums. It really made us feel like it was ours, and we took pride in it. We had such a love for this country back then.  Our kids learned so much during that time about our government and our history. Obama was president. It felt so calm and peaceful. Now I won’t even go to DC. Not until he’s gone. [/quote]
