Did the Obama administration try to silence whistleblower agency on energy policy? « Hot Air: "As the WSJ concludes, the FERC apparently wants NERC to protect the reliability of energy distribution without considering threats to its reliability.  Or, probably more accurately, FERC doesn’t want NERC to publicly disagree with the Obama administration.  Obama appointed Jon Wellinghoff as the chair of FERC, and he repaid the appointment by ordering the audit — without putting it to a vote by the board.  Another Obama appointee, Cheryl LaFleur, criticized that move, but the message has already been sent: dissent from the Obama agenda will be punished severely."
