>> "Although Bush and President Bill Clinton each dismissed nearly all U.S. attorneys upon taking office, legal experts and former prosecutors say the firing of a large number of prosecutors in the middle of a term appears to be unprecedented and threatens the independence of prosecutors."

That's liberal news media spin.

WTF difference does it make whether it is at the beginning of a term or later on?

That's just stupid.

CJ said it was unprecedented and clearly it is not. If they were, as he claimed, civilian employees not subject to firing then Clinton couldn't have done it, either.

The fact is they're employees of the Executive Branch and a president can fire anyone who works there. Period.

This is the same old "Do as I say, not as I do" hypocrisy that you and CJ and Koan are so well known for.

Stop being an idiot.
