I must confess that my first reaction, upon learning that the Bush Administration was firing US Attorneys and replacing them with political cronies was to blame the Senate Democrats. "Those lapdogs," I thought. "They have to confirm these appointments-- why are they letting this happen?"
Reader, I was wrong. The lapdogs don't have the power to confirm those appointments-- they gave it away in the Patriot Act. And I can't tell you how thrilled I am to discover that the henchman who is charged with carrying out this despicable chore is Buffalo's own Michael Battle.
