Understood and respect that.  But.. I think their mission should be what the mission statement of what the agency is for.  I work in a corporate environment and my company’s mission statement supersedes my personal beliefs.  It is apolitical.  Basically inarguable.  I have a hard time believing that a 593 to 1 is in congruence with a mission statement that...impartiality isn’t happening.  And it doesn’t help when somebody says I’m going to sue to protect this instead of trying to bargain some.
Wouldn't the nature of the position (government work in an agency advocating for consumers in their dealings with banks/lenders) likely attract more left leaning folks (who tend to believe more in government, less business/market deregulation) than right leaning (who tend to believe in less government, more business controling its own markets)?
I would imagine most of the folks working in social services would be left leaning, or folks working in the military would tend to be more right leaning.
The nature of the agency tends to attract people of a like mind. I don't think that makes them unable to be impartial, maybe even more suited to do the tasks of the agency. Just my anecdotal experience, but I'd guess an easy 3 out of 4 people in state and federal Ag lean more to the right. Which makes sense as you would expect Ag related folks to tell Ag industries how to operate (as opposed to the more typically left approach of bringing in a broader and probably unrelated spectrum of staff who may have good intentions but not much Ag experience).  If that number (75%) held true, I don't think it would be a good idea to bust up the Ag Dept. just because it didn't have a more left leaning voice.
