So what is the stink over Bush firing eight attorneys now? He only fired eight, this means the rest are a bunch of Clinton hold overs. In my opinion Bush should have fired them all *the same way Bill Clinton did.* (Yeah, but there is a scandal...) There is no scandal here.(But they were investigating corruption of Republican officials which is blantantly partisan.) Well nine months ago you were telling us that the FBI couldn't investigate elected Democrat officials, so why is it that attorneys can?
Yeah, you remember that incident right? Seems that Representative William Jefferson (Democrat New Orleans) was being investigated for taking bribe money. The Feds wanted to search his office, but Congress threw a hissy fit at the time saying they were immune to such things even as it was revealed that while the city of New Orleans fell in to chaos, Jefferson was using army rescue vehicles to go to his house and hide the evidence. Interesting the change of heart now.
Bush did nothing wrong. Gonzales did nothing wrong. If it's a crime for a President to fire 8 people that work for him, then Clinton's firing of 93 is more than 10 times worst. And those 93 people were working on everything from corruption in high office to charges of racism. You can bet that the first Lib President who gets into office after Bush will can attorneys that don't tow the liberal line and no one will say anything.
I can't believe that lefties get so self righteous about no laws being broken when there are tons of real laws being broken all the time - overwhelmingly by them.
