The How is related to the obscure provision in the Patriot Act that allows USAs to be appointed without Senate approval, and The Why seems to have changed from "poor performance" to "it's routine, standard procedure". Emerging information is starting to suggest that there were very specific political reasons for the firings that had nothing to do with cleaning house for a new presidency or performance shortcomings.

You should at least be as famous, as, well somebody. BTW, I think I have found a new strain of PDS. The symptoms are that "Everybody Knows" something, therefore I am naming it <strong>W</strong>idely <strong>M</strong>anifested <strong>D</strong>erangement <strong>s</strong>yndrome Since I am <em>positive</em> that this is a world-wide epidemic, those searching for <strong>WMDs</strong> in Iraq should have no problem finding it. Of course, since you'll also find <strong>WMDs</strong> in the USofA, maybe Murtha is right, and we need to redeploy the troops back home to deal with it. ~EdT.

Best to ignore such humorless trolls. FYI, Wikipedia has a nice write-up on<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webster_Hubbell" rel="nofollow"> Web Hubble</a> including his conviction in Federal Court in 1994 for mail fraud and tax evasion in connection with the billing records of the Rose Law Firm (he pled guilty). Gov. Bill appointed him Chief Justice of the Arkansas Supreme court in 1983, and later Prez Bill appointed him Associate Attorney General. He was Hillary's partner at the Rose Law Firm for many years. If there are those who for whatever reason, wish to believe that Hillary didn't even express an opinion on whether Web Hubble would be a good guy--<em>their guy</em>--at the DOJ, well, let them wallow in their credulity. Best not to even try to introduce the real world to them, even in jest. They can't deal with it. Polimom,

So, what TBogg said. You might be better off on the sidelines until you know the plays.
