Why Carry Water For This Administration?
The whole obscenity angle on these firings is clearly a barnum, a distraction, and yet another attempt on the part of Karl Rove to divide and conquer public opinion on what should be clear-cut cases of multiple obstructions of justice.
These prosecutors were fired because they were doing their jobs properly and vigorously, not because they didn't prosecute enough child pornography cases.
Perhaps if the Bush Administration had not excelled at committing constitutionally pornographic abuses of executive authority in the first place, these prosecutors might have had more time to violate our civil rights in the new and interesting ways Alberto Gonzales has always intended.
