Dems & media call for Gonzalez to step down

... after the firing of 8 (eight) of Attorneys General.

But they were okay with Janet Reno firing all 93 (NINEY-THREE) at once in 1993.

Some selections from the March 24, 1993 issue of Time, explaininghow it is okay for Democrat administrations to fire Attorneys Generalat will.

"Attorney General Janet Reno today demanded the prompt resignation of all United States Attorneys, leading the Federal prosecutor in the District of Columbia to suggest that the order could be tied to his long-running investigation of Representative Dan Rostenkowski, a crucial ally of President Clinton."

"All 93 United States Attorneys knew they would be asked to step down, since all are Republican holdovers, and 16 have resigned so far. But the process generally takes much longer and had usually been carried out without the involvement of the Attorney General. Battles of the Past "

"Ms. Reno is under pressure to assert her control over appointments at the Justice Department. She was Mr. Clinton’s third choice for Attorney General and arrived after most of the department’s senior positions were already filled by the White House."

Good thing Reno didn't have to step down over this, or she wouldn't have been able to protect our country as a member of The Most Ethical Administration in History by burning the Branch Dividians alive and grabbing Elian Gonzalez at gunpoint to send him back to the totalitarian country that his mother died escaping (and not incidentally, trying to free him from).
Go about your business. No hypocrisy to see here.... no hypocrisy to see here...
