sentenced four Democratic Party workers to jail Wednesday for slashing tires on 25 vans rented by Republicans to take voters to polls for the 2004 presidential election.
Calling the vandalism more than harmless hijinks; What appears to have happened was a prank, a silly prank that went too far,"

It's the same thing with the fired U.S. Attorneys. Alleged rapist Bill Clinton fired all 93 when he took office in 1993, yet Bush fires 8 and all hell is breaking loose.
Someone should ask some of the Democrats if this was OK in 1993.

The President has the right to remove anyone for any reason. It's part of the 'power' of the President.
The President does not need to explain himself.

Ok, why? personal gain? same as clinton, no difference.
As for the voting, dems resort to all kinds of tactics, from giving out cigarettes to voters to helping crackheads get some crack for their vote.
I believe the dems are the worse of the two evils.

Dead Wrong on all above.
Every administration cleans house after a year. It's traditional. See every damn administration that has taken office.
These particular firings were political and intimidation was at the root of them. This is more than unusual why this adminstration is stonewalling why these attourneys were fired. and why do you think no one is going after LAM? Because Cheney gave the 140 k for Cunningham to get his boat. It's all abused power worse than anything you think that the Clinton Administration did.
The votes for crackheads, is a racist and stereotypical myth for a different racial genetic makeup. And you have to realize X Philes that was engineered in some G.O.P. head quarters. Have you heard of caging lists? That's a reality not a myth. Know about Jim Crow? Same injustice different clothing. They do the same similar tactics to their peers like Mccain and his "BLACK" baby. Do you know about what happened in Ohio? Probably not.
Republicans investigated Democrats 5 to 1 in the last six years. They were able to find literally not that much. This whole administration was paranoid of the "D"in front of a name of a elected official. And it's what is going to bring them down in the end.
Now wait and see what Waxman is going to uncover. Face it Republicans are more overreaching and corrupt than Democrats. It's only been 3 months since the Democratic Party has been in power, and Walter Reed and The Department of Justice is already out in the open. I hope the Democrats do something about it. But letting these hearings take place is important and vital to a democracy. Otherwise X Philes you might as well put on some jackboots and a brown shirt.
I think people are mad who voted for this administration because we got the most toxic one in America's History. It's been literally corrosive for Americans.
And while you obsess about that D in front of the name, more corruption and outright theft from war profiteering, more tax breaks for the top 1 percent,no bid contracts,incompetent cronies in every seat of this administration.
You need to open your eyes,X Philes. Henry Waxman is doing a service for this country. People need to be held accountable when you overreach on America with a authoritarian power. I remember when the Republicans wouldn't hold any hearings and made the democrats hold "meetings" in the basement floor.. You know why? Keep your eye out and see how many more things that this party is guilty of.
You chose the worst party for this country and you need to understand we can't afford a Republican majority any longer for this country.
I'm sorry but that's the truth. And when William Buckley and George Will say this is the worst president and the worst foreign blunder in American History? It's over. The architects of conservatism have spoken.
