Time Line For A Scandal

Tpmmuckraker has published the best time line of this scandal so far. It looks like this mess all began in the White House. For some reason back in 2005 people were a little hacked at the operations of the US Attorneys around the country. Harriet Miers proposed canning all 93 of them. Alberto said no, that would be too disruptive. She put her head together with her buddy Kyle Sampson at the DoJ and came up with a hit list of 12. That list changed over time. Analyzing that list is going to be fun. Any bets as to the common theme. How about a refusal to knuckle under to local Republican demands for investigations of Democrats?

I wonder why Harriet wanted to can all 93 US Attorneys? Maybe somebody should ask her.
