Fired U.S. attorneys say politics led to their ouster - I guess Obama admin is going to forget about
Edited on Mon Feb-08-10 08:15 PM by JohnWxy


the political prosecutions by the Bush administration and the purge of U.S. Attorneys who wouldn't go along with going after innocent people but the U.S. attorneys who were fired won't forget about it.

Five of the U.S. attorneys fired by the Bush administration in 2006 told law students at Arizona State University that there's no place for politics in the courtroom.

The former prosecutors, among nine fired at the time, were asked to talk to the students about the role of prosecutors and the ethical considerations they face. They appeared to agree that politics were behind the firings.

1. I think you're wrong. Right now Sen. Shelby has a hold on
at least 76 Obama nominees, and I know for sure one of them is a guy to replace the Pub in LA. I have no ideal who all the others are, but I suspect some of them are to replace some or all of the Shrub appointees!

That LA is the father of one of the guys accused of trying to disrupt Landreau's office and was presented to Shrub by Senator Diaper Man.
