Documents Show Gonzales Approved Firings

I thought I saw the same modus operandi with the Clintons. They seemed to throw bodies out the back of the wagon too. I think it is one of the reasons Fox has such a anti Clinton Political analyst. What is his name - the guy who got caught with the Prostitute.

Is that what it takes to be president?

Quote from CaptainObvious:

As a Democrat I am appalled that my party continues to think like losers. Far fetched as it is, a Democrat might actually occupy the WH at some point in the future. Whatever restrictions we put on the current president, all future presidents will have to live with. Firing political appointees requires no reason, ever. Put restrictions on that for Bush, and the next Dem president will be unable to clean house when he comes into office. How's that sound to ya'? Radical lefties just can't think past the moment.

You're still parading around as a fake democrat? Nobody even voted for that option except yourself in your poll. Stop pretending and get real. You're a real loser.

Quote from fhl:

The clinton white house did not back off. Billy Dale and his staff remained fired, as I recall. Mr Dale was simply aquitted as to any IRS violations.

I am continually amazed at the logic you libs use. If someone you refer to as a wingnut does the exact same thing that liberals have done, you think they are pathetic. It's the old pot calling the kettle black type of logic.

It's not the lying that's pathetic, it's defending the lies by saying that Clinton lied too. That's really pathetic.

I don't recall anyone defending Clinton by saying that Reagan did it too.

Dick Morris. Hillary hated him, and the prostitute thing gave her the excuse she needed to get him.

Presidents and their wives seem to be pretty comfortable with the notion that staffers are kind of like soldiers in combat. In a battle, it's not unthinkable that you can lose a few of them. The first rule of being a political staffer is to protect the candidate at all costs, including falling on your own sword if necessary. That's one reason it is such a despicable calling.

So...you have no response to my assessment that Dems are acting like losers and the radical left is once again acting stupidly. Thanks for the support.

This is the kind of pathetic response from the wingnuts I was talking about. They blame everyone else except themselves for their lies.

This one even lies about his party affiliation.

Again, thanks for your support. Your inability to respond to my point only goes to show that I've hit the nail on the head. As a radical lefty you're demonstrating the weakness of your position, or lack thereof.

You didn't even have a point. You don't know why you're pathetic? For a self-proclaimed libertarian to defend a bunch of liars based on the reasoning that the president needs more power, is truly pathetic.

Where did I say the president needs more power? You really need to do something about your selective interpreting problem. I said, whatever restrictions we put on this president, all future presidents will have to live with. For radical left dems to over do it, as usual, would create problems for any future dem president. If this president has to explain every fucking move regarding political appointees, so will a dem president down the road. Has that sunk in through your thick skull?
