The Gonzales E-Mails

Not everything gets leaked to the Washington Post.

Attorney General,

Yes, I do remember the time you drove in that run! Thanks for reminding me again, I hadn't thought of that since our conversation about it last Friday. Good times, good times. So, I was thinking of other possible downsides to firing all U.S. attorneys, and ones that I see are: 1) Losing the entire prosecutory capability of the United States government at once. 2) Losing the Republicans we've worked so hard to put in those positions over the past six years. 3) Massive political opposition from the Democrats. 4) Fired attorneys might be reluctant to contribute to your campaign for governor of Texas in 2010.

Harriet,

Working on the plan to fire all U.S. attorneys. A couple questions. If we fire all the attorneys, what if we have to prosecute someone? Also, can we wait until I've collected my first round of donations for my gubernatorial race?
