First of all, you are confusing federal attorneys with state attorneys. A states attorney works for state government.
There are over one hundred attorneys working for the state department, so the eight or nine who were fired is not going to put the government in a bind. The state dept. is a department of the federal government .

There is only one attorney general the others are called U.S. Attorneys. I believe there is somewhere around 98 of them totally.
By the way the plural for Attorney General is Attorneys General.

I believe there are 93 of them. The media and the democrats
are making a big deal. The administration has not done
anything illegal. The President has the rite to fire the attorneys
Bill Clinton fired 93 of them and the media didnt say anthing.
Bush only fired 8.

There are 98 attorneys at the federal level that is being brodcast to death. The bottom line is that the president hired them and he has every right to ask for their resignation. I think the increasing cost of heating our homes, lighting our homes and running our cars is much more important than the millions that will be spent on this political witch hunt.

Clinton fired 93 Federal Attorneys at one time.
The News Media didn't say a word.
It was okay.
