Like Bush didn't know anything. My ass! A recently canned former U.S. attorney, who has promised to name two lawmakers he says pressured him to build cases against Democrats, is scheduled to testify Tuesday before congressional committees. Former U.S. Attorney David Iglesias of New Mexico is one of eight federal prosecutors appointed by President Bush who were dismissed in a Justice Department shake-up last year.
At least six indicate they were summarily sacked after expressing differences with Washington. They were scheduled to testify Tuesday to Congress -- four before the Senate Judiciary Committee and two before a House Judiciary subcommittee.
The Justice Department contends they were fired because of job performance. A statement from the six testifying attorneys says they were given "little or no information" as to why they were dismissed and they will refrain from speculation.
Meanwhile, the director who conveyed the bad news to the attorneys has resigned, saying his decision to leave has been in the works since June. The Justice Department says the resignation is unrelated to the controversy. http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/03/06/fired.attorneys/
You can bet those attornies were pressured to build cases against Democrats and you can bet that now that they have been fired for disagreeing with Bush as is the standard case for disagreeing with his abuse and misuse, they too will be casually dismissed as disgruntled employees. The guy who fired them quit, what a surprise! When is the lying going to stop being tolerated.
Gonzales is a worm and action should be under way to pressure for his dismissal! He fires his top aide who of course will get the blame for Gonzales's shortcomings as always happens with his master and the shit will just continue. Gonzales must be replaced!
Democrats are examining e-mails they say prove the White House was far more involved in the firings of U.S. attorneys than it has acknowledged. Again you can bet they were but as usual the truth will be denied and never admitted to. http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/03/13/fired.attorneys/index.html
With the recent disclosure of what we all knew would happen under the chief idiot that FBI Director Robert Mueller and Attorney General Alberto Gonzales have been abusing the Patriot Act and to me only for Bush's Political gain there is a question of whether they can survive scrutiny.
They better not! We know for a fact that every aspect of the Patriot would be abused and misused under Bush. That was my original concern in Bush having this tool. The Patriot Act under anyone else may be okay but not in the hands of the Decider who is using it to follow his new order. He is doing that with the blessings of Gonzales. As such, Gonzales for his role in destroying our Democracy and "our America" should be replaced and quickly. http://www.bayoubuzz.com/...
