The most distinguished U.S. attorneys in the country (by their own admission)

TPMmuckraker comments on the "poor performance" of the fired attorneys...

The best bunch of prosecutors you'd ever want to fire.

I've said it before here, and I'll say it again. One of the remarkable aspects of the U.S. attorney firings is that the Justice Department didn't select a group of mediocre prosecutors and then try to smear them as underperforming -- oh, no. They chose from among the most distinguished U.S. attorneys in the country (by their own admission), and then announced to the world that they'd canned them for "performance related" issues.

when i first read "by their own admission," i read it as by the admission of the fired attorneys themselves... maybe it's too early in the morning and i just need more coffee...
