    I got no problem with this. It shows foresight and planning by the administration.

    Get rid of the U.S. Attorneys that might give you trouble.

    Appoint lackeys.

    Lackeys need jobs, too.

    I wonder why Bush didn't fire them all when he took office like the previous president did?

    Maybe Bush's lackey mentor program was lacking.

    He fires a whole bunch of lawyers, and the biggest, slimiest, dirtiest fuck up of 'em all, Johnny Sutton, gets to keep his job. I wouldn't let that dumbass represent me in traffic court.

  9. Oh, and this seems to reach into the WH, too.

    This just in: It seems the attorneys all were fired because of catty postings on a law school message board.

    The administration lives to screw up another day.

    Attorney General Lickspittle checking in.
    Yeah, I'm convinced.

    What struck me in the article was that the attorney generals, or former attorney generals, were subpoenaed to testify before congress. They didn't want to testify.

    So no bitching that they're grandstanding or coming forward with some agenda. That's an order.
