It's not only the U.S. attorneys who are threatened by partisan politics. Since Day One, the Bush administration has been quietly dismantling the DOJ's Civil Rights Division.
  • Horrified

    For once during these dark times I am nearly speechless. The firing of 8 US Attorneys is nothing compared to what I just read in this article. Thank you, Salon for such an in depth and thorough piece, but I am mourning the massacre of a sacred institution. Checks and balances and our civil rights have been reduced to nothing but former dreams. WHY is there no independent counsel appointed to investigate these horrible allegations?
