He also insisted that Griffin never argued with Garver.</i> <br><br><i>\u201cWe are working extremely well with the transition team,\u201d he said.</i><br><br><i>However, Shank acknowledged Griffin was concerned that the six-member team \u2013 all with space policy backgrounds \u2013 lack the engineering expertise to properly assess some of the information they have been given.</i><br><br><i>Garver refused comment about her conversation with Griffin -- and his remark that she is \u201cnot qualified\u201d -- during a book-publication party at NASA headquarters last week. Obama\u2019s Chicago office \u2013 which has sent similar transition teams to every federal agency \u2013 also had no comment.</i><br><br><i>People close to Garver, however, say that she has confirmed \u201cunpleasant\u201d exchanges with Griffin and other NASA officials. \u201cDon\u2019t worry, they have not beaten me down yet,\u201d she e-mailed a colleague.</i><br><br><i>And this week, Garver told a meeting of aerospace representatives in Washington that \u201cthere will be change\u201d to NASA policy and hinted that Obama would name a new administrator soon, according to participants.</i>", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2008-12-11_13:08:18", "killed": false, "user_key": "Justice58", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": false, "votable": true, "date": "12 months ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 13, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "4324908": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "No you didn't evoke Effie White!!

He also insisted that Griffin never argued with Garver.</i> <br><br><i>“We are working extremely well with the transition team,” he said.</i><br><br><i>However, Shank acknowledged Griffin was concerned that the six-member team – all with space policy backgrounds – lack the engineering expertise to properly assess some of the information they have been given.</i><br><br><i>Garver refused comment about her conversation with Griffin -- and his remark that she is “not qualified” -- during a book-publication party at NASA headquarters last week. Obama’s Chicago office – which has sent similar transition teams to every federal agency – also had no comment.</i><br><br><i>People close to Garver, however, say that she has confirmed “unpleasant” exchanges with Griffin and other NASA officials. “Don’t worry, they have not beaten me down yet,” she e-mailed a colleague.</i><br><br><i>And this week, Garver told a meeting of aerospace representatives in Washington that “there will be change” to NASA policy and hinted that Obama would name a new administrator soon, according to participants.</i></div>\

Especially when that last space shuttle blew up due to incompetent mechanics working on it.  I\'m surprised Griffin\'s ass didn\'t get canned then, but this is the Bush Administration and since they don\'t want to cooperate with Team Obama, Obama would do well to just clean house and promote the career people who went on 20/20 or some documentary discussing the incompetent at the top of the NASA organization, and how low morale was as a result.</div>\
