good question…

Posted on Thursday 21 June 2007

Why does Bradley Schlozman still have a job at the Justice Department? Why are taxpayers still funding his professional career despite a growing body of evidence that suggests he has brought nothing but shame and scandal and rank partisanship to the department? And if Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales can’t bring himself to demand Schlozman’s resignation, can he at least question his judgment?

It’s just another example of the appalling lack of accountabilty, leadership and honor at the Justice Department.

Karen Stevens, Tovah Calderon and Teresa Kwong had a lot in common. They had good performance ratings as career lawyers in the Justice Department’s civil rights division. And they were minority women transferred out of their jobs two years ago — over the objections of their immediate supervisors — by Bradley Schlozman, then the acting assistant attorney general for civil rights.

Schlozman ordered supervisors to tell the women that they had performance problems or that the office was overstaffed. But one lawyer, Conor Dugan, told colleagues that the recent Bush appointee had confided that his real motive was to "make room for some good Americans" in that high-impact office, according to four lawyers who said they heard the account from Dugan.
For that matter, why do these guys still have jobs?

    The people of this country need to knock the smiles of their (*&^@! faces. Honestly, they make me sick with their lies, their self-righteous and self-serving greed, and their illegal un-American actions. They just make me sick.
