Typical of neo-cons to spout off how Clinton (and other presidents) fired 91 US Attorneys (not Attorneys General.
Bush did this, too, when he was installed by the Supreme Court.
Never has a president fired a USA for political reasons.
Only 7 or 8 USAs have been fired by ALL PRESIDENTS COMBINED with the first 42 presidents. But none was fired because they weren't doing the political bidding of the POTUS.

He should have simply said, " Changing AG's is not against the law, they serve at the Presidents discretion and they were removed" No reason is needed. Not required by law, Totally legal. Clinton got rid of all 93 attorneys, and so did Reagan and Bush 41 if I recall correctly. If anyone says it's political, damn right it is, Was set up that way and both parties have used it to their advantage. There is nothing illegal in this but presenting it as such is just Demo smoke screen.
Who here can quote law where this is not allowed?
I rest my case.

Get real - Gonzo just conveniently forgets whatever gets either he or Bush into trouble in the first place. If he is that forgetful maybe he is suffering from Alzheimer's. If that's the case what in the world is he doing in his present job???

It is called convenient memory. Politicians have it alot. Anyone else would be diagnosed with Alzheimers.

It's believable. After all, he studied law and still managed to forget all about the Constitution.

Oh, he remembers alright. He is just a loyal Bushie and is protecting the big guy. Watch "W" give him a medal of honor.

He is a proven liar. Of course, that's a requirement for a job with the Bush Administration.

No one cares.
Except for just some little whiny-butts.
It's just political-games.
Everyone knew that Clinton was a pathological liar. No one cared.
I loved it.
It was fun to watch Clinton make fun of the little sexual-freaks that elected him.
Cool!!!!!
