This is about using US attorneys to damage Democrats

and protect repuglicans. Paraphrased from Josh Marshall at www.talkingpointsmemo.com.

And he's right. The rest is just mumbo jumbo. This is the fact that needs to be front and center. This is what it's all about. And it's big.

with KKK's associate getting appointed there just in time to leak an "allegation" or initiate some bogus investigation of her during her time in Arkansas.

2. Starting with the $700 million in fake DOD contracts to

companies that don't provide a service other than turning around and giving the money to republican congressional races or republican organizations.

Building their one party system with taxpayers money is almost complete.

5. Thanks for the link

The more you dig into this, the more fascinating it is and the more terrifying. Of course we at DU can't get enough of all the details and twists and turns. But for the average person, I think we should distill it into a soundbite, and then build from there. At this point, all the average person knows is that some attorneys were fired and there may have "politics" involved. They need to know that the republicans were actually trying to stop criminal investigations against themselves.
