Clinton's firing of all US District Attorneys upon taking office in 1993
National Review Online ^ | 3/27/00 | Jonah Goldberg

Posted on 10/09/2003 10:32:15 AM PDT by ConservativeColoradoCatholic

Okay, so: the buried LaBella memo, the improper contacts between the White House and the Resolution Trust Company, the almost 1,000 improperly obtained FBI files on the Administration’s opponents, the firing of Billy Dale, the releasing of Linda Tripp’s personnel file, the haircut, Vince Foster’s discovered suicide note, blown-up aspirin factories, cattle futures, no controlling authority, firing all the U.S. district attorneys, ...

I have often heard & read that Clinton did this, and I believe it, but I am looking for a reference to an authoritative source still available on the Internet to prove it. I am arguing with liberals who deny that this is an historical fact. Please provide a source, if you know of one. Thanks!

This is the first reference on the Downside Legacy:

April 5, 1993

Last Tuesday, after being on the job only 11 days, Attorney General Janet Reno had the Justice Department moving and shaking. She requested the prompt resignation of all 93 U.S. Attorneys around the country "to build a team" that represents "my views" and those of the President.. Time 4/5/93

I'll look for more...

Second hit:

The New Australian No. 118, 5/10- 16/99 Peter Zhang "....The most frequent question is: "What was in it for China." Though I had raised the same question myself, it was only in a rhetorical sense as I thought, at least by now, that the answer was obvious. Clinton gave Beijing a free reign and a guarantee that its activities would not be interrupted during, what he quaintly calls, his "watch" so that China could clear out America's military and high-tech secrets. Simple..... His approach to power and people is truly medieval, minus the noblesse oblige. Given this fact, and his support in the media, it is not surprising that reports made out to Chinese intelligence suggested that Clinton would be favourably disposed to dealing with Chinese representatives - for a price. Intelligence assessments were supported by Clinton's action, shortly after entering (or is it soiling?) the Oval Office, in asking all US Attorneys to resign. This unprecedented and dictatorial move gave the Clinton administration control over the prosecutorial machinery of the federal government in every judicial district in the US. No need to tell you who was impressed by this breathtakingly brazen move. Why Clinton even tried to appoint Webster Hubbel to the post of Attorney General. Imagine where that would have led. But what struck a particular chord was the way the American media acquiesced to the Clintons' manoeuvres. Beijing does not underrate the power of the Western media, especially in America. That, with the exception of a few lone voices, it was prepared to collaborate with the Clintons gave further assurance to Beijing that Clinton was able to deliver. ..."

The arrogance of the Clinton Administration knew no bounds. This last election should have sent a firm message of the repudiation of all things Clinton. Thanks Alamo-Girl for your awesome work.

Liberals deny all historical facts. Is there a particular one that troubles you? BTW, try a Google search on any of the above - I can't do all your homework for you.

You're quite welcome! I'm hoping he will get back to us so we'll know if it was what he needed or if more research is necessary.

Does any fool still think that throwing out Bush 41 was the best thing to do for our country?
