If Perry Was So Fond Of HHSC Inspector General, Why Did He Not Reappoint Him?
By Vince Leibowitz on Aug 16, 2007 in HHS Boondoogle
Everyone knows that the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and its subsidiary agencies are all pretty much an unmitigated disaster. So, Governor Perry’s failure to reappoint Inspector General Brian Flood to his current post should some as no surprise.
But, for a governor trying to distance himself from an appointee, Perry isn’t exactly doing a bang-up job:
“The Office of the Inspector General has become a model for states across the nation,” Perry said in a statement concerning Flood’s resignation. “These accolades and accomplishments are a result of hard work and quality leadership and staff throughout the agency.”
Um hum. If he’s so damned good, why dump him?
