Schlozman: disdainful and vitriolic

TPMmuckraker has the lowdown on brad schlozman...

"He was universally despised by career people. He was the most disdainful and vitriolic guy I've ever dealt with, and he had it in for everybody."

looks like there's no longer any doubt, the justice department was merely a branch office for the white house, which, in turn, was merely a wholly-owned subsidiary of karl rove inc. and the republican national committee...

Schlozman was appointed to be the interim U.S. attorney in western Missouri on March 23, 2006 -- just two weeks after the president had signed the USA Patriot Act into law; the bill contained a provision that allowed interim U.S. attorneys to serve indefinitely.

Schlozman, who had zero prosecutorial experience, was installed as the U.S. attorney in western Missouri -- where Jim Talent was battling Claire McCaskill in one of the closest Senate races in the country. The administration appointed him suddenly and without consulting the senior Republican senator in the state, Sen. Kit Bond (R-MO). A spokeswoman for Bond said that "Senator Bond was informed of Mr. Schlozman's appointment when he was named as interim U.S. attorney for the Western District of Missouri."

"most disdainful and vitriolic" is quite a statement... i've observed folks like that in action in the private sector and it isn't pretty... sure, you take a lot of shit from them that you should never have to take out of fear of losing your job, but, what it amounts to, without beating around the bush (pardon the pun, please), is nothing more or less than verbal and emotional abuse... what's usually worse is that THEIR bosses are often aware of such behavior and do nothing... needless to say, that kind of boss NEVER behaves that way in front of HIS boss, so HIS boss just writes it off to whining employees...
