Whiny Unemployed Feds
Have you read the latest whinings of the unemployed? Apparently some folks got fired because they were crappy at their job, and now they're whining with help from Democrats. Well, if you're going to whine, and you want advice on how to do it, Democrats are second only to the French in skill and ability in that area.
And since it's Democrats that are whining, you know who's to blame, right? Absolutely: Bush. First, a little lesson for Democrats and anyone else who doesn't understand the US Constitution: The government is divided up into three branches. Two of them are the executive branch and the legislative branch. The legislative branch, which includes Congress, gets to make laws. The executive branch, which includes the president, gets to enforce laws. There's another branch, but I don't want to confused the small-minded. The Justice department falls under the executive branch. This means that all the people in that department work for the president. Most of the people in the justice department serve at the president's will -- that means that the president can fire those people when he wants to. This is why there is so much turnover in the cabinet and at other high-level posts when a new president is elected. Any questions so far? Okay, in this article, various fired federal prosecutors are complaining (with help from Democrats) that they were fired for political reasons. They also claim they felt pressured by members of Congress to do certain things. First, remember who they work for? They work for the president. So if the president wants to fire you, he can. And yes, the president is a political position. Therefore, there's nothing wrong with being fired for political reasons when you serve an elected official! That's how government works. I wish MORE government employees were fired when the elected officials changed. Next, the "pressure" claim. They claim that members of Congress called them and pressured them. If I call you, the good reader, on the phone right now and tell you that you should look out your window or your job will suffer, how much pressure do you feel? Apparently the fired prosecutors don't realize that they don't actually work for the Congressmen (I know the Democrats think they do, but that's another story). If you don't work for someone, how can they "pressure" you? And if you feel threatened, call the police, that's what they're there for. It's just another reason to bash Bush and literally nothing more. You'd think the Democrats would realize that they were in power by now.
