The media and Democrats are in heaven over the 8 US attorneys fired for not tampering with elections by indicting Democratic candidates prior to the 2006 midterm election. Add into this that the Republican members of Congress that pressured these US attorneys, also Republican Bush appointees, potentially could be legal due to an aide of Senator Arlen Specter slipping language into the Patriot Act that gave more presidential power.

Many aspects of this reaffirm the values and ethics of Republicans in Congress and the administration. However, the media is so far completely missing the most disturbing aspect of this whole issue:

All members of Congress signed the Patriot Act into law without reading it! This is their one job and none of them are doing it!
