Firedoglake - Firedoglake weblog: "RUSH: But not only that, (former Republican congressman) Duke Cunningham is in jail. Patrick Fitzgerald was not fired! All of these allegations that these attorneys were fired because they're working on corruption cases against Republicans? Carol Lam was a campaign manager! These people would normally be made ambassadors, but Clinton put her in as a US attorney. This is the kind of people that Clintons and Democrats appoint as federal judges. What I was talking about earlier, is their attempt here to insulate Democrats and liberals from election results. Now, Bush could have gotten rid of this woman when he took office. He chose not to. The new tone, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Next up, Russert says, 'Senator Leahy, let me ask about a comment Senator Hatch made. Do you have any shred of evidence that any case was interfered with by the dismissal these eight US attorneys?" [my bold]
Lam was appointed in 2002.
