"The firing of under performing attorneys is part of the job of the Administration. Firing 120 attorney's who have six year terms in eight years seems political. Firing eight in eight years does not. And yet circumstances tell a different story. It's become apparent that there was a political component for the eight also. Denying it, simply adds fuel to the fire.

<<While they wallow in the glory of their new found power, they will attempt to use more of the same to gain more power.>> Welcome to politics 101.....in case you haven't noticed, this is what ALL sides do.....it's called Governing. When you try and justify wrong doing (and that's what this whole firing scandal smells of) by stating "well the other guys did it too", then you compromise your principles. It's the old question of "do two wrongs make a right"? No.... No matter what side does it, bottom line.....it's wrong to fire any US Attorney on political grounds. Shame on Clinton if what you state is true but let's stop it NOW, while the issue is at hand. Gonzalez will be the fall guy on this one..... mon.
