Excellent swing Duros!

Now Bush is stupid cause he didn’t fire all those disloyal slime right up front!

I love argueing with liberals!

Well, if this was a “pogrom” to excise political opposition from the US attorney’s stable, it would probably work better closer to an election year, not 6 years into your term. Kind of late in the game to find monsters under the bed. Especially if they are doing their jobs effectively.

I feel your confusing Duros but here is what actually happened, as opposed to what you read on Media Matters:

“Bode did note Reno’s unprecedented decision to fire all 93 U.S. Attorneys “has become a highly visible test of how political the Justice Department will be under Bill Clinton and Janet Reno.”

See, THATS an old school pogram. Bush has fired what, 6-7 attorneys?

Puh-lease…..

“He “fears retaliation”? He’s already been fired. What else does he think they’re going to do to him? Burn down his house? Kidnap his children? Key his Beemer?

This is exactly the kind of lame-ass charge that disgraced ol’ Joe McCarthy. You got names? Let’s hear ‘em.”

OK. just where is the real Quaker? What have you done with him? (stealing a line from somebody)

Hold on a second.

Problem is Pedro, they are doing it to attorneys who are doing their jobs.

Oh, Pedro and JWG know that — they knows all about Carol Lam and how she brought down a major chunk of the GOP’s K Street Project (Duke Cunningham-Dusty Foggo Wing). That’s why they’re glad to see her go.

if Bush had just run a virtual Pogrom of US Attorneys and kicked out every one that the democrats appointed,

Ok, I’m confused. I thought that was waht was going on.

So, just to be clear….if Bush had just run a virtual Pogrom of US Attorneys and kicked out every one that the democrats appointed, that would be OK?

It’s just bad that he is doing it to attorneys that aren’t doing their jobs?

Cause I mean, NOBODY who gets fired EVER thinks it their fault….
