Were there other attorneys targeted for dismissal?

From Thinkprogress:

The Justice Department refuses to answer a simple question: Were more top federal prosecutors targeted for dismissal beyond the nine that have been publicly identified? The Blotter reports a new letter from the DoJ dances around the issue, saying only that the answer was contained in information shared earlier. At a July hearing, Gonzales admitted, “There may have been others” besides the nine already identified, adding, “I certainly find out.” Recall, all the U.S. attorneys were ranked based on their loyalty to Bush and Gonzales.

Of course, there were. The real question is how many more?

Yes many more and one was my little angel. The fruit picker knows it but his boss was to scared to do it. If the idiots in the White House knew how smart and detailed my little angel was he would have been stopped at day one. What you see isn't always what you get. There are some well educated honest lawyers in the DOJ they just don't go around talking about themselves.
