my prediction:
We the taxpayers are going to pay this guy $400+ an hour for several months.
This will result in a final report validating the administration's story,
but it will contain mild criticism about better oversight being needed (in order to appear objective).

You nailed it, spot on, but the attorney is a woman so it will be $800 an hour.

UPDATE to this news story.
The Justice Dept's response
I think the response is inapropiate. I blame Issa and the republicans because if the tables were switched, the democrats and media would most likely be screaming for a special prosecutor, IG type of investigation.
The Justice Dept's response
quote:
The Justice Department contends that there was nothing improper about naming Bosserman to lead the investigation and that taking her political leanings into account would have been inappropriate.
“It is contrary to department policy and a prohibited personnel practice under federal law to consider the political affiliation of career employees or other non-merit factors in making personnel decisions,” DOJ spokeswoman Dena Iverson said in a statement. “Additionally, removing a career employee from an investigation or case due to political affiliation, as Chairmen Issa and Jordan have requested, could also violate the equal opportunity policy and the law.”
