Sampson quits and stays on the payroll. Why quit?
At his press conference today, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales acknowledged that his former chief of staff Kyle Sampson, who resigned over the scandal yesterday, remains on the Justice Department payroll. “His transition — as a technical matter, he is at the Department as he transitions out and looks for another employment.”
More Gonzales: “I acknowledge that mistakes were made here. I accept that responsibility, and my pledge to the American people is to find out what went wrong here, to assess accountability, and to make improvements so that the mistakes that occurred in this instance do not occur again in the future.”

Why not Rummy is still on the pay roll and someone should check if Libby is getting his pay check. Friends of the White House leave but still get pay as part of the loyalty they have to the Liar-in-Chief. If Powell had kept his mouth shout he would still be getting paid.
