I read a couple of emails from USA Margaret Chiara, which she is pleading with her superior to tell the real reason for her firing or she will face "financial catastrophe," and will have a hard time finding a job. </p> <p>Chiara in one email wrote, "Of course, we do need to retain control of the Senate to facilitate confirmations." She would seem to be a loyal Republican to say such a thing. Too bad she didn't know about the Patriot Act provision that made confirmations unnecessary. </p> <p>The Bush mob has now sunk to the level of eating their own.</p> http://kirkcaraway.com/20/03/2007/republicans_engage_friendly_fire#comments U.S. attorneys Tue, 20 Mar 2007 08:25:31 -0700 kc 198 at http://kirkcaraway.com
