Bush is at center of prosecutor purge
ribonucleic:
<< In the spring of 2006, [California senior Republican Senator Pete] Domenici told [Alberto] Gonzales he wanted [US attorney from New Mexico David] Iglesias out.
Gonzales refused. He told Domenici he would fire Iglesias only on orders from the president.
At some point after the election last Nov. 6, Domenici called Bush’s senior political adviser, Karl Rove, and told him he wanted Iglesias out and asked Rove to take his request directly to the president.
Domenici and Bush subsequently had a telephone conversation about the issue.
The conversation between Bush and Domenici occurred sometime after the election but before the firings of Iglesias and six other U.S. attorneys were announced on Dec. 7. >>

<< D. Kyle Sampson, Gonzales' former chief of staff, told Senate investigators over the weekend that the attorney general told him in early March that he and Bush had discussed U.S. Atty. David C. Iglesias' performance before the November election >>

I didn't give a crap about your hip replacement surgery - as advertised in your thread in the G&O board.
The difference is: I didn't waste everyone else's time by posting about my disinterest in it. :)
