One anon suggested that Since Obama was not legit president, then so are none of his appointees....thus a need to reboot any good ones to make them legit. If they go that rout then there are many other appointees that are not legit.
While I can see them taking that rout with Obama if they decide to prosecute any of his crimes, as it would make it easier to deal with the public if he was not legit from the get go, I think the real reason for the reboot is just the normal answer.... It is common practice for all of the previous administrations prosecutors to turn in resignations so the next administration can chose their own people and re-ask those they think are a good fit.
Or maybe the guy just wanted a vacation before he came back to work? ;-)
Great point! Thanks!
But if rebooting is just normal, SOP, then why would Q mention it?
I agree. Standard resignation.
Might have cut him loose just to see how he would react...leak write a book, go on tv. He didnt so they trusted him.
