It's not a question of substance it's a question of double standards and hypocrisy. It's a fact that when Clinton (in a highly unusual manuever) fired 92 federal prosecutors mainstream media barely blinked an eye. This is a media fueled issue that would go hardly noticed if polticians on both sides weren't compelled by the major news outlets to express their "outrage". Fortunately some people have the ability to see it for what it is which is more of same old BS plain and simple.

But Clinton's actions weren't highly unusual. Bush did the same thing in 2001 and you didn't hear a peep from the evil liberal media then did you?

Firing a large and select group of prosecutors mid-term appears to be unprecidented. The quite serious ethics violations that appear to be present, and the lame attempt to cover them up are the problem.

But if blaming Clinton for all of Bush's failings helps you sleep at night...
