Positive JOB evaluations and still fired? You gotta be kidding!!!!!!!!


Former U.S. attorney Bud Cummins, above, said officials crossed a line by publicly criticizing the performance of his well-regarded colleagues. Deputy Attorney General Paul J. McNulty, right, recently told a Senate panel that six U.S. attorneys had been dismissed for "performance-related" reasons. (By Danny Johnston -- Associated Press)

All but one of the U.S. attorneys recently fired by the Justice Department had positive job reviews before they were dismissed, but many ran into political trouble with Washington over issues ranging from immigration to the death penalty, according to prosecutors, congressional aides and others familiar with the cases.

Two months after the firings first began to make waves on Capitol Hill, it has also become clear that most of the prosecutors were overseeing significant public-corruption investigations at the time they were asked to leave. Four of the probes target Republican politicians or their supporters, prosecutors and other officials said.

So were these the attorneys that were "conveniently" seeking search warrants to search Republican politicians during the campaign despite them not doing anything wrong?

Naw, maybe they were only seeking search warrants to prove their theories correct. And what were those "theories"? Did you read the article? Probably not. The lemmings never questioned the command to dive over the cliff either.

Is it "convenience" or jurisprudense with which you object, avatar4321?
