This all seems so mundane but......
Why is this administration tripping all over itself and mounting no defense nor going on the offensive?
Why is there suddenly a "big fight" over closing Gittmo and Gates, Cheney, Gonzales and the President's conversations about it all over the tube now?
Is somebody leaving the Oval Office doors open or are there a bunch of moles in the White House?

I still can't believe this is still 'news'.
This is not about the "news".
This is not about what's right or wrong.
This is about creating the appearance of wrong-doing on the part of the administration. The public for the most part doesn't care to find out the facts. Most of what the public hears is a 30 second blurb on the news or on the late-night shows about how the administration is up to wrong-doing again. The democrats know how to play this game very well and they win elections with those tactics. The USSR and the Chinese and Cubans and North Koreans used or continue to use the same tactics to keep their population ignorant and under control.

Sorry for the rant, but just because this is a lame duck administration is no reason to turn our country over to the liberal media and the terrorist, traitors they support.
C'mon guys......get up off the mat and fight!

I think certainly the latter, and possibly the former (ok, they are idiots, but I think they understand that this is a non-story).

THIS IS MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING. Clinton & Dyke Reno fired all the U.S. Attorneys when he took office.
These people deserved to be fired. You should have seen the O'Reilly Factor last night. He laid it all out in the open and explained why they were fired.
The Prez and his administration need to get some 'nads and tell the Dems in the Senate to drop dead.

"Many conservatives burrowed within the Department of Justice have long complained that Gonzales has permitted career government employees and hold-overs from Democratic Administrations to remain in perches of power and thereby water down conservative directives from the top. As one conservative and Federalist Society member in the Justice Department told me: This is definitely not Ronald Reagans Justice Department, I assure you.
You have holdovers from Clinton calling the shots in a lot of places here. "
To: pitinkie
Where's the contradiction? And what is the big deal? They were fired - probably should have been.
The media continues to display its overwhelming hypocrisy and dishonesty. Clinton fires 43 U.S. attorneys and it is portrayed as cleaning house and portrayed positively - fluffy interviews with Reno on the subject and the like. 8 U.S. attorneys get fired in the Bush administration and it gets reported as a major scandal.
To: popdonnelly
Of course he did.But he said last week, if the article can be trusted, that he "was not involved in any discussions about what was going on." Now perhaps he simply didn't recall this meeting, but I bet otherwise.

Attorney General Alberto Gonzales approved plans to fire several U.S. attorneys in a November meeting, according to documents released Friday that contradict earlier claims that he was not closely involved in the dismissals. So what!
Lack of Iraq bad news prompts stupid headlines by the MSM.
Let the MSM augment the liberal insistence to destroy themselves politically.
They are good at it.
