Bit of a Stretch.

August

What a shocker! AG Michael Mukasey has declined to prosecute anyone who had anything to do with the childish – and illegal – politicization of Bush Justice Department hiring practices. Mukasey told the American Bar Association that he considered the use of a political litmus test in hiring prosecutors to be a bad thing (eh, bad/criminal, what’s the difference…)
Perish the thought, but he has inadvertently I’m sure, created the appearance that he isn’t prosecuting anyone in the justice department because there are no non-Republicans left to purge. But that can’t possibly be the case, can it.

Just because your mis-guided, wrong-headed interpretation believes that there was something illegal in what the Bush Administration did does not make it so.

What part of the notion that the AGs serve at the pleasure of the president don’t you understand? President Clinton fired all of the except one, including some that investigating shady dealings by Hillary and Bill and you didn’t cry like you are now …

1) It was a violation of labor law. Period.
2) Even though there is almost no comparison, (I won’t waste bandwidth splitting hairs) I drew cartoons about Janet Reno cleaning house.
