Mr. Attorney General: I know that it was completely your decision and no one else's to fire those attorneys. I'd just like to give you this space to explain the factors that went into your decision making.

The information you request is Classified as a matter of National Security. While I would very much like to respond to your inquiry in great detail, it would be inappropriate for me to do so at this point in time.

However, rest assured that The Truth always runs deeper than it appears on the surface.

I will reiterate my earlier message: we at the Justice Department felt there were several jurisdictions in which the performance of the U.S. Attorney's Office could be enhanced. To accomplish such a task, I appointed my trusted Chief of Staff to conduct a comprehensive review within the Justice Department. He recommended we part ways with eight (8) members of our staff, which I personally signed off on. End of story. The firings were not politically motivated, nor were they intended to interfere with any ongoing investigations.

Now, some of these individuals have complained they were not informed of their sub-standard performace, and that their removal was rather "surprising" or "sudden." To that I can only reply, this is America. The greatest nation in the history of the planet. To ensure the American Way of Life, we have entrusted highly qualified men and women to maintain a system of Justice all Americans have come to honor and cherish. If these individuals were not aware they were derelict in their duties, they should never have been placed in those positions to begin with.

I await The President's response to this "crisis."

The President is busy filling out his brackets. He will get back to you later.

[Oh My!]

Something tells me W was told to pick Florida. After all, that gun-shaped state is why he's in office now anyway.

[Raging]

Actually it was Ohio who won it for him, so he probably should have picked the Buckeyes. But my guess is he picked the 'horns, since I've seen him give out a few "hook 'em" hand signs to some UT fans, but that's just a guess.

And wasn't it Clinton who picked Florida and Ohio State to win??? hoyatalk2.proboards48.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=pro&thread=1174069319&page=1

;D ;D

Mr Attorney General, I think I speak for the minority when I say we stand behind you 100%
