New Allegations of "Hijacking of Hiring" at Justice Department for Entry Level Lawyers, not just U.S. Attorneys

A BUZZFLASH NEWS ALERT

An anonymous letter sent to the House and Senate Judiciary Chairmen, signed "A Group of Concerned Department of Justice Employees," thanked Democrats for exposing the "overtly political" firing of United States Attorneys, but warned that the Department was also politicizing the non-political ranks of Justice employees.

The letter claims that the traditional, objective process of hiring top students from law school was being superceded by top officials. After mid-level employees painstakingly pored over applications and resumes to select the best candidates as usual, senior Justice officials dramatically purged the final list in an unprecedented manner.

The letter charges that "Most of those struck from the list had interned for a Hill Democrat, clerked for a Democratic judge, worked for a 'liberal' cause, or otherwise appeared to have 'liberal' leanings. Summa cum laude graduates of both Yale and Harvard were rejected. . ."

Pat Robertson "ethics"...

And you can see the great job Pat Robertson's "christian" college did teaching ethics to folks like Monica Goodling. Truth and honesty must not have been on the program or she would not be so concerned about testifying under oath.

Bush has obviously brought his personal brand of ethics to the whitehouse that he must have learned from one of Hitler's business partners, grandpa Preston Bush.

Karl Rove ( real name Roverer) is the grandson of a Nazi war criminal. It runs in the family.
