Yes, if Bush would have done the same to Clinton’s leftovers, we might very well be toasting a new Republican President next month. Instead Bush wanted to get along with pro-abortionist democrats, believing if he were nice to them...they would reciprocate. He forgot “ never never seek love from the devil. “ Now we have a marxist on the way to The White House.

Will Obama fire all the U. S. Attorneys, as Clinton did and Bush should have but didn’t?

I thinks it's pretty sick that there are 600 political appointees in the Pentagon *alone*. We only need the SecDef, a handful of his deputies, the service secretaries and one or two assistants each. That's it. Generals get by with civil servant secretaries and admin folks, so can the High and Mighty. Of either party!

no mentioning of firing all US Attorneys (ala Clinton).
‘Course, it would probably take the wind out of the RAT sails re: Pres. Bush firing US Attorneys.
Still, that's exactly what's going to happen...Obama demanding 93 resignations.

Yeah, Bush’s cowardice in dealing with his domestic enemies is legendary.
In that way, he screwed America but good.

Here comes the return of the Clinton-era “panty-waist Pentagon”.
