EXCLUSIVE: My on camera interview with fired US Attorney David Iglesias

From the news junkie. I just got this email from him a few minutes ago. Heading for a lunch appointment. Be back on the blog later. And the video is in his article to review again.

From Truthout.org:

Jason Leopold An Interview With David Iglesias

Jason Leopold interviews former US attorney for New Mexico, David Iglesias, one of eight US attorneys fired in December for reasons that appear to have been motivated by partisan politics. Iglesias says he believes a "smoking gun" exists that will lead directly to Karl Rove and blow the scandal wide open.

Great job, Jason! Cheers!

This is an incredible video. A reporter knows he or she is asking the right questions when the person interviewed says, "That's a good question." Iglesias was also very professional in answering the questions. There is not one hint of anger in his voice. I do not know how he could do that! If I got screwed like that, I'd be very angry.

Yes, that ws incredible video.

"I do not know how he could do that! If I got screwed like that, I'd be very angry."

I wanted to make a comment. Alot of people like you would be angry of being screwed like Iglesias. But, what matter is how you handle the situation. Do you get angry where you lose your character? Or do you get through the situation and know that there will be positiveness in the future. I saw Iglesias's interview with Timmy Russert. In one of the emails, Iglesias included in the end of his email a scripture. He told Russert that. The scripture was basically in the nutshell said that as one door closes another one will open. Iglesias is a very confident person. He knows who he is and where he is going. Each person handles situations very differently. But it is you as the person who decides how to handle a situation and hurt and pain. I admire Mr. Iglesias for speaking out but most importantly have a positive look in life. He is certainly not allowing the nimrod Administration to destroy his character and integrity.

Now, the other thing is that Iglesias can go to the private sector and make at least triple his salary. Not all of us can do that. Many people who are screwed out of a job have to hit the unemployment line.
