NASA IG Takes Heat, Stands Firm

NASA Inspector General Robert "Moose" Cobb said at a joint House-Senate hearing yesterday that he's going nowhere, despite calls for his resignation by members of Congress and associates who, the Washington Post reports, describe him as "abusive, vulgar, unprofessional and seemingly beholden to top management of the agency he oversees." Cobb has been the subject of 24 formal complaints and an ethics panel concluded earlier this year that he should be fired or otherwise punished.
