Buh... buh... but Clinton!
Uhhhh, no. The pajama-clad troglodytes are too busy playing with themselves in their parents' basements to worry about stuff like that darn pesky reality stuff. From McClatchy:
The Bush administration and its defenders like to point out that [the Boy King] isn't the first president to fire U.S. attorneys and replace them with loyalists.Fun fact: The attorneys Bill Clinton fired soon after he took office in 1993 were appointed by Reagan and Bush the elder. Dickheads.
While that's true, the current case is different. Mass firings of U.S. attorneys are fairly common when a new president takes office, but not in a second-term administration. Prosecutors are usually appointed for four-year terms, but they are usually allowed to stay on the job if the president who appointed them is re-elected. So fuck you, pukes.

There is no precedent for this, since in previous admins, replacements still had to be approved by Congress. The secret amendment to the Patriot Act changed that.
Fun Factoid: Attorney General Gonzales' chief of staff, the guy he said was responsible for The Purge, and who has resigned, is STILL on the payroll.
