IG's who are employees of the Department they audit is a big problem.

Exactly. Criticizing the firings of IG's blindly is a classical example of IWI thinking: the assumption is made that these IG's were just cranking along and getting things done.

They weren't. Witness the Pentagon, which aside from the Marine Corps has failed every audit they've tried for several years now. In what universe is it okay to allow a bureaucracy to get so big it can't keep track of itself? These are the problems we need to tackle. An independent IG corps that rotates around is a step in that direction.
