McKay suggests his ouster was ‘possibly illegal.’

“Fired U.S. Attorney John McKay said Sunday he believes the Justice Department is covering up the real reason for his ouster. … ‘I still don’t know if the 2004 governor’s election was the principal reason I was asked to step down,’ McKay said in a speech. … ‘If it was, I think it is an entirely improper and perhaps illegal reason for my termination,” said McKay.’”

    You shut your mouth McKay.

    Shock and Awe!!


  2. Republicans are the Fear and Smear Party says:

    Of course it was. And Bush and the DoJ don’t care if you know it.


  3. Devil's Advocate says:

    Go McKay! I am glad the fired — Republican — USAs are not taking this lying down. I am also glad to see that there are some Republican left in this country actually have integrity.

    Further commenters: scroll by #1 — it is yet another pee-stained troll (thanks for the expression, whoever came up with it).

    The President serves at the pleasure of the American people…

    and, right now, we’re not very pleased.

    Gone-zales, you’ve had your presidential pleasure, now go back home.


  5. Kay says:

    Don’t tell me : something illegal actually happened during Chimpy’s administration.

    Tell me it isn’t so.

    (sarcasm off)

    I have a question that maybe someone here can answer…..it’s about the Ashcroft incident……if Comey had the reins at Justice why would they (Gonzo and Card) be trying to get Ashcroft to sign anything. The only thing I could come up with would be some document that maybe they had backdated to the date before Ashcroft became ill. This is the only reason at least what I can think of would you have Ashcroft sign anything because Comey was now at that point in charge. It must have been something they needed a signature on before Ashcroft went under.


  7. President Bush says:

    Devil’s Advocate,

    You shut your mouth as well you pee on peasant.

    I’m trying to look out for you here. If you can’t understand why my stacking of the Justice apartment with partisan hacks is good for you, then I guess there’s no explaining it.

    But I’ll try anyway…. (I can’t believe I have to dummy it down you)

    Americans want single party rule. Particularly my party. Since I know they wont vote that way because of the damn liberal media giving the masses those liberally biased facts, I must combat the facts with people who will bring charges against anyone necessary. This will help to insure that even if your tax and spend DemocRAT party does turn out the vote, then my people will be there to void the result!!!

    Shock and Awe!!!

    “Mr. Resident Tush, sir?
    You’re the party of 3, yes?
    Your trough, excuse me, sir, I meant table is ready, right this way…
    Hope you admire the view of the Bollinger shipyard, yes, aren’t all the Coast Guard vessels magnificent. Yes, slightly bowed amidships where they did all that cutting and welding….
    But, well what can one expect for guest workers from the Indian subcontinent, eh? at least it didn’t cost much to house them, being able to quarter 40 workers per converted shipping container…
    Sorry, sir, I digress, would you like a drink to get started, and how about you, Mr. Chainee, the usual Bloody Puppy?
    Mr. Rove, the magnum Dom Perignon?”


  9. President Bush says:

    heyzeus,

    Your english is almost as good as mine!!!

    Shock and Awe!!


  10. Ben Dover says:

    WHAT?? The Bush Administration doing something illegal?? Say it isn’t so.


  11. Crump's Brother says:

    Oh my. Republican who cares for his country. I thought they had all gone quiet!


  12. Mr. Bush Goes To Hell says:

    McKay needs to tell Congress the WHOLE STORY.

    Time to impeach the consigliere Abu Gonzo

    Bush will NOT have a problem getting another Attorney General confirmed, as long as they are BIPARTISAN and represent

    the PEOPLE of the USA, NOT the WAR CRIMINAL of a “president”
