It is not just Clinton - they all change these political appointments when they get elected - though it takes more time in some cases because some appointments are for longer periods of time.

That is not really the issue here though. In fact, it is irrelevant to this issue, which is "Whether these US Atty's were removed for failing to prosecute a vaild matter?" For example, did the WH tell them to let some scandals involving Republicans die on the vine. If so, that is obstruction of justice - ironic isn't it.

The D's and R's were both wrong on this one and having the D's in power hardly would have changed that to any significant degree. just ask Bill Clinton, who still supports the reasons for invasion
course he does, he was attacking them constantly during his time as president. I dont get the republican or democrat thing. they both suck. clinton was a ****tard bombing them constantly, bush is much much more of one of course but if clinton is christian then he long ago gave up his place in heaven cause he's a mass murderer in his own right.

but seeing as the whole thing has come to a far far worse situation under bush the only chance for any slight improvement is with the democrats, knowing now what a disaster the last few years have been.

As for his legacy, who cares. RR died beloved by most
thats not really relevant though is it. everyone loves somebody when they die. everyone hates bush but if he died tomorrow people would conveniently forget everything he did and honour him. being dead almost guarantees being loved.

does "bb" stand for Beelzebub? (is that how you spell it?)

also, Jason, I get it that past presidents have removed previous appointees, but this blatant dismissal of only Democratic Attorneys is such an obvious political hatchet job that I personally am glad to see that the Bushies are taking heat for this. The more they are exposed for the evil-doers that they are, the better I like it.

Ya know, I had someone online ask me to name "one positive that I can attributed to Bush being in office".

That was simple - "The lyrical content of metal music in general has gone back to the anti-government views of late 80's/early 90's thrash metal - which was ALL anti-Reagan, anti-Bush, anti-War."
