Patrick Leahy is a rockstar

This is ridiculous. Previous admins have fired them all coming in. Political rhetoric

Clinton fired all 93 when he came into office
then hired an intern in a blue dress

blue and white

If this is what it takes to finally make the Bush administration accountable for its actions, then I'm perfectly okay with agreeing with them that Clinton shouldn't be emulated in all ways.

i may be wrong, but the issue isnt the firing, its really the re-hiring.

If Clinton fired all 93 prosecutors, he still had to go through senate to get the replacements in the door. (not fact-checked)

This administration was allowed by congress to name federal prosecutors without senate confirmation. Who would have thought that he would abuse this authority?

Watching Tony Snow trying to dodge the shithammer today filled me with both sadness and mirth. Looks like the Whitehouse only selectively hates transcripts.

This was just a vote; wait until they actually issue the subpoenas - then the shit will realy hit the fan :)

This wotak moment in the house is brought to you by acme rattles incorporated. Acme rattles have been banging off every high chair in the country for over 40 years.

Wolfer-like behavior detected, abort, abort.
