Hey Randee, the ACORN canard is getting pretty stale.

This is why the Republicans don’t win elections:

Nobody likes them.

Masood,
I agree with you. With the criminal ACORN machine participating in the census, I’m sure the Republicans have not a prayer of winning any elections for generations.

Yes, Masood, we are rapidly becoming a Bananna Republic. Our trillion dollar “government stimulus packages” have predictably produced more record unemployment.

The Blame Bush First mantra is getting pretty stale.

Soon the dollar will be replaced by another currency–maybe the Euro.

George Soros must be a very, very happy man.

No true! But it’s amazing hpw this right wing media is jumping upon this story and as usual distorting it. They smell blood and want a republican in White House by 2012. In your dreams

Cerius,

All US Attorneys are asked for their resignation at the outset of each new adminstration. Before prancing around in your sanctimony, you should read a little about history. Let me say it again since I’m guessing you’re oblivious to facts – Every administration does it.

Nevertheless, the Bush Administration went further to clear the decks than any administration in history. If you can read the above article about Monica Goodling and the link below and not puke, you lack anything approximating shame.

Partisan purging of federal positions? Come again?

Did not Clinton summarily fire ALL U.S. Attorneys within the first several weeks of his presidency?

Where was the outrage then, Mr. Hendrix?

Partisan, indeed!

Do you people have certain reflex talking points that just spill out? Five cabinet members, Obama is the law, Acorn, Obamessiah, teleprompter, etc? And before talking about Obama seeing himself above the law, try giving a look at Bush’s suspension of habeas corpus that was duly slapped down by the courts: http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/2008/06/12/boumediene/

Or this:

We don’t even know what all the details are as of yet. And we have usual sad talking points trotted out.

In any event, if you compare this firing in the worst possible light to the partisan purging of federal positions by the Bush Administration, it looks like kid stuff.
