The Hammer on the purge
Tom DeLay says the White House invited trouble by letting Donald Rumsfeld go.
Tom DeLay says the White House is at least partly to blame for the uproar over the firing of eight U.S. attorneys last year — but not in the way you might think. Appearing on the “Today” show this morning, the disgraced former House majority leader says the “made-up scandal” over the prosecutor purge is “just a taste of what [it's] going to be like for the next two years.” The reason: “The Bush administration sort of showed their weakness when they got rid of Don Rumsfeld.”
