excellent conclusion, but a stupid thread.

If you want criminal frauds, unpunished and WIDESPREAD (not anecdotal like yours), that cost Human-Americans $Ts in continuing, lost wealth, check out the financial sector, with special emphasis on its lawyers.

Until he retired in April after learning he was under federal investigation, Beale, an NYU grad with a masters from Princeton, was earning a salary and bonuses of $206,000 a year, making him the highest paid official at the EPA. He earned more money than Gina McCarthy, the agency’s administrator and, for years, his immediate boss, according to agency documents.

In September, Beale, who served as a “senior policy adviser” in the agency’s Office of Air and Radiation, pled guilty to defrauding the U.S. government out of nearly $900,000 since 2000. Beale perpetrated his fraud largely by failing to show up at the EPA for months at a time, including one 18-month stretch starting in June 2011 when he did “absolutely no work,” as Kern, Beale’s lawyer, acknowledged in his court filing.


Nor was that Beale’s only deception, according to court documents. In 2008, Beale didn’t show up at the EPA for six months, telling his boss that he was part of a special multi-agency election-year project relating to “candidate security.” He billed the government $57,000 for five trips to California that were made purely “for personal reasons,” his lawyer acknowledged. (His parents lived there.) He also claimed to be suffering from malaria that he got while serving in Vietnam. According to his lawyer’s filing, he didn’t have malaria and never served in Vietnam. He told the story to EPA officials so he could get special handicap parking at a garage near EPA headquarters.

From the article. He didn't go to work and made up stories as to why he wasn't there like that he was a spy. As a liar yourself, I am curious why you would paint him as a 'complete' fraud when he was lying as to why he was not there. Could it be that you want to deceive people as to what he is actually lying about?

Oh, Gee!!

I would think it would bother you, someone who believes climate change is a serious problem, that this man was pretending to be a CIA agent, rather than doing his important work.

Don't shoot the messenger. This was a NBC headline this morning.

Your thread title was not the headline nor the title of the piece.

I imagine you got it from your facebook or the like and regurgitated it here. I don't see you as clever enough to have read the article and couch the guy's actions as your title does as opposed to what the article says.

Nonetheless, you're posting misleading shit once again. It's like a constant with you.

It's a politics board. I don't think a standard of honesty regarding actual policy is asking very much.

You display little honor though.

It is not as if this is even the 10th time you have posted doctored bullshit and passed it off as something else. You also have a routine of posting articles that you clearly have not read but you liked the headline and posted it anyway. And you now are arguing degrees? You really are a steaming pile.

So the side who (over)relies on the fallacy of appealing to the notion that "the experts all agree" to prove just about anything don't think its relevant when one of those experts is shown to be dishonest?

lol.

the "notion" is that a vast majority of scientists agree that global warming is real AND that it's anthropogenic. One criminal fraud doesn't change that.

All you right wingers here believed the "experts" who said that the Feds/CRA caused the Banksters Great Depression by forcing the banks to make bad loans . :lol
