Interior is dark and dirty

Dark as oil and as dirty as a hog wallow. The latest in a series of investigations into Interior Dept management reveals some good ol' boys & girls doing bidness the old fashioned way. The NY Times has the details.
The Justice Department is investigating whether the director of a multibillion-dollar oil-trading program at the Interior Department has been paid as a consultant for oil companies hoping for contracts.

The director of the program and three subordinates, all based in Denver, have been transferred to different jobs and have been ordered to cease all contacts with the oil industry until the investigation is completed some time next spring, according to officials involved.
But really, this is a Republican administration, did anyone expect anything else from this crew?
