Hindsight is always 20/20

Bloomberg.com: U.S.:

"William Moschella, a Justice Department official, told the House panel the prosecutors were ousted for legitimate (like they weren't "team" players?) reasons, including poor management, differences over death penalty policies and failure to crack down on illegal immigration. Cummins was asked to leave to create an opening for a former aide to Karl Rove, Moschella said. (Yet these attorneys all had great performance reviews...before being fired)

Poor Handling

``In hindsight, perhaps this situation could have been handled better,'' (You think so?) Moschella said. The agency's failure to explain the firings to the U.S. attorneys ``only served to fuel wild and inaccurate speculation about our motives.'' "
