More Red Cross questionable actions

The latest is an attempt to kill a GAO inquiry into Red Cross activity. Gail McGovern, the president of the Red Cross, wrote the following to the Congressman who had initiated the inquiry, “I would like to respectfully request that you consider us meeting face-to-face rather than requesting information via letter and end the GAO inquiry that is currently underway.” This despite an earlier statement from her lauding the organization's transparency, “we made a commitment that we want to lead the effort in transparency.” Plus, the fact that the GAO is explicitly empowered to investigate the group.

Will they ever smarten up?
