Clinton canned 49 (probably exceptional) attorneys for no reason other than that he felt like it. Pity.
If Bush wants to fire his own (probably) guys, so be it.
There's no story in this story.

There are two stories here:
Mid-term firings are pretty rare. The first story here is that Bush can't even get his own appointees to do his dirty work any more. Poor George.
The other story is that the Republicans managed to change the law so mid-term appointees won't need Senate confirmation. Just one last little dirty trick for the old tricksters - just like the mid-night appointments that still tarnish John Adams' name.
