Marked by Karl Rove,
Fired last December,
Not Senate Reviewed,
and Rachel K. Paulose
… who is the U.S. Attorney for Minnesota, the District where several senior attorneys recently demoted themselves to get out from under her control and her Bible quotes. She was previously the Senior Counsel to Acting Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty and was a Special Assistant to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. Her best pal at the Justice Department was Monica Goodling, [former] Senior Counsel to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales [Goodling resigned yesterday]. When Rachel was appointed to fill the post, her swearing in was described by her colleagues as a "Coronation," held in an Auditorium with a Choir – a real first.
While Rachel was not appointed to replace one of the fired Attorneys, she’s a Republican Operative from the Central Office filling a spot in one of Rove’s targeted States – suggesting her appointment was part of the Plan [Recall that Sampson’s first strategy in his January 2006 email was to offer the U.S.A.’s a chance to resign on their own first, before firing anyone]. Let’s hope the Congressional Investigators call these disgruntled attorneys ASAP to hear their take on Madame Attorney Paulose…
