Thanks ND.
President Clinton, through Janet Reno, fired all of the U.S. Attorneys after he was elected. Clinton used the mass firing as a means of covering up his real intention -- to fire the U.S. Attorney in his home state of Arkansas. They didn't call Clinton "Slick Willie" for nothing.

Oh puh-leaze. Even if Gonzalez did anything worthy of being fired, I wouldn't want to get rid of him with Harry Reid's filibuster-happy crowd in control of the Senate. They haven't yet voted on a replacement for John Bolton, have they?

I'm seeing conflicting reports on this and I don't remember myself which is correct:

Did GWB also fire all (or most) US Atty's following is election or did he not?

My father-in-law(a liberal) just said that the clinton administration did not get rid of the US attorneys. Any help in refuting him will be greatly appreciated.
