Democrats hungry for Bush blood – could care less about serving the people
In this New York Sun piece, Senator Leahy of Vermont and sadly the Judiciary Committee chairman, seeks to attack the White House for the firing of Federal prosecutors from the Justice Department. The fact that every president does this and that the president has the right to do this doesn’t faze Leahy.
“They’ve chosen confrontation rather than compromise or cooperation,” Leahy had the nerve to say as he completely ignored the fact that the aggression comes from the Democrats, not the White House.
The “issue” is whether or not the White House exerted undue political influence in the firings. My only question is why these people were not removed immediately when Bush first became president. This could have avoided this non-scandal that the Democrats are so desperate to use to hurt Bush. But better this, I suppose, than for them to spend their time and energy dreaming up new ways to tax us or destroy our values. And they certainly aren’t there to serve the people.

Haven’t been following this one closely, huh?
451 blogger Chuck Thompson has an excellent post on this subject (http://www.leftnewsandviews.com/the-real-dangers-of-gonzalesgate/) which I urge everyone to read.
The Department of Justice and the White House certainly are fighting tooth and nail to cooperate and get out the facts behind this “non-scandal,” aren’t they?
This is just another example of why many say this the most corrupt administration since Nixon’s (some would say it is even more corrupt: see John Dean’s Worse Than Watergate.).
