The best thing about the Attorney firings is the inability to claim national security
as a defense. That's what makes this so important to investigate.

1. No, the WORST thing about this is to not be talking about national security,
the war, the soldiers. It could be a big, fat distraction; meanwhile, people die. :(

2. I totally disagree. All we have heard for the past seven years is
that everything that has gone against the Constitution has been because of national security. The NSA spying, redactions in Yellow Cake gate, etc. But this, this is separate from that and that's good. Yet, it still proves how corrupt the Pukes are.

3. Hoping special prosecutor can claim nat'l security
so s/he can have access to the NSA wiretaps and the data-mining.

After all, national security concerns would include an attack on the White House, or the Congress. They should likewise include an attack on the justice system.

5. They will have the ability to claim anything
and tie it up in the courts.
Another special prosecutor would be nice
but not Fitz, that would take another 4 years.

Look at Enron, Plame and all the other cases, there must be another way around this and that is congress.

It has been proven by the Gonzales e-mails today that they lied
which gives the senate judiciary committee two strong aces
to use politically and publically to make them
testify under oath.
