Gap in Justice, White House e-mails raises questions

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A 16-day gap in e-mail records between the Justice
Department and the White House concerning the firing of U.S. attorneys last
year has attracted the attention of congressional investigators.

In an investigation into whether seven U.S. attorneys were fired for
political rather than professional reasons, the Justice Department on Monday
handed over 3,000 pages of documents to the House and Senate Judiciary
committees.

But the documents included no correspondence about the firings in the
critical time period between November 15, 2006, and December 2, 2006, right
before the attorneys were asked for their resignations.

Who cares?

Bush2 could've pulled a Bill Clinton and fired all 93 and he still wouldn't have to answer to anyone as to why he did such a thing. Do everyone a favor and bury this witch-hunt and find something better to bitch and moan about.

How dare you tell the the truth like this Oedipus? The left wants and scandal, it doesn't matter if these people serve at the pleasure of the president, the left wants it and therefore it must be. I am pretty sure that their next attack will be to present definitive evidence that the president actually uses the bathroom, and that is just out of line. We cannot have that kind of activity in the whitehouse. ROFL

The truly sad part of this is that the left will pick up and try to run with anything, no matter how foolish the charge, thus my silly scenario above. It shows desperation and hatred, the new foundation of the democratic party.

This is why our Do-Nothing Congress hasn't gotten anything done. They're too busy with witch trials and exacting revenge because they think they were "wronged" for being out of power for so long.

Nonsense. That's what libs are good at.

That's politics, I'm afraid. I don't remember anybody on the right denouncing the GOP-controlled congress gleefully embarked on any and every excuse to "investigate" Clinton. (Remember Dan Burton shooting watermelons trying to "prove" Vince Foster was murdered?)

The Bush administration has brought this problem upon itself, by not being able to keep their story straight. There's also the concern that the attorneys were fired for not going after Democratss aggressively enough, or for going after GOPers. That would raise reasonable questions about the impartiality of the DOJ in criminal prosecutions.

You are probably correct in this regard.

That would raise reasonable questions about the impartiality of the DOJ in criminal prosecutions.

On this point however every bit of the commentary is speculation.

Perhaps this Demoncrap witch hunt is a good thing... at least the amnesty for the GD illegal aliens among us will be on the back burner for a while longer. If it gets pushed back far enough, there won't be an amnesty bill making it out of Congress before the political season gets into full swing.

Good point. Maybe it's a good thing they are consuming themselves with this nonsense. It keeps their attention off of the country so they can't fuck it up.
