>>> The US Attorney is a political office; where the president appoints the head. Republicans appoint like-minded prosecutors and Democrats appoint like-minded ones, such as the cover-up artists Clinton appointed to bury his Whitewater scandal and Rostenkowski's crimes.

The only mistake Bush made appears to have been when he chose to be compromising with Democrats and appointed a Democrat to head the Seattle US Attorneys Office. In retrospect we now see that was a mistake, and while Bush is completely within his rights to correct his misstep, leave it to the Demorats and the media to portray his actions as wrong.

Clinton fired all 93. The Bush administration appears to have only considered it, but... chose not to follow Clinton's precedent. And for that Clinton's actions were ignored and Billary is calling for Alberto Gonzalez' resignation?

When are Republicans going to stop letting the Demorats and the media spew their lies and double-standards? I for one am tired of it.

I for one am wondering if Bush's calls to rebuild the party include fighting back for a change?
