McClatchy reports tonight:
Fired San Diego U.S. attorney Carol Lam notified the Justice Department that she intended to execute search warrants on a high-ranking CIA official as part of a corruption probe the day before a Justice Department official sent an e-mail that said Lam needed to be fired, U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein said Sunday.
Feinstein, D-Calif., said the timing of the e-mail suggested that Lam’s dismissal may have been connected to the corruption probe.
Justice Department spokesman Brian Roehrkasse denied in an e-mail that there was any link.
----->Feinstein said Lam notified the Justice Department on May 10, 2006, that she planned to serve search warrants on Kyle Dustin "Dusty" Foggo, who'd resigned two days earlier as the No. 3 official at the CIA.<----
---->On May 11, 2006, Kyle Sampson, then Gonzales' chief of staff, sent an e-mail to deputy White House counsel William Kelley, asking Kelley to call to discuss "the real problem we have right now with Carol Lam that leads me to conclude that we should have someone ready to be nominated on 11/18, the day her 4-year term expires."<---------

Well now we know why Ms. Lam was fired. The paper trail and to stop a criminal from being charged. Rove didn't work fast enough this time. Gonzo got the title and now will return to which he came. I don't think a law office will hire an ex Attorney General who didn't know the law. No good for business. So many people have spoken up to support the corrupt as we find out their dumb as door knobs. Lam is good real good and Americans should be proud we have a lady as smart as she is working for the United States. This lady could go anywhere and succeed. I was thinking the fired lawyers are so brilliant in law anyone of them could be Attorney General.
All road lead back to Gonzo and Rove and a very corrupted Administration.
