You can't see the difference between someone being replaced for failing to uphold civil rights laws and someone being replaced because they're prosecuting your political cronies and not prosecuting your political enemies? Come on.....

Sure I can:

1. I finally got the time to review the firings ... up to this point I was arguing more about general principals - firing all 93 at once, firing those who are not enforcing laws that the administration thinks they should - than specific incidents.

2. The Arkansas firing seems to the worst. Pure Cronyism at its worst. The Washington State firing seems to be the most legitimate ... he should have investigated some of the election fraud that took place. All the others are somewhere in between, and at best smell bad, which is not good.

3. I don't think this is the major scandal it is being made out to be, just as I wasn't nonplussed when Clinton let all 93 go at the same time. Seems to me that they way they did this is clumsy politically, and the Arkansas one stinks, but to me the other ones aren't so specifically targeted to make it too big a deal. Politically damaging, a little. Damaging to our justice system, not really.
