The impossibility of being fired by George W. Bush

[dubyaD40web]

It must be nice to have a position in the Bush Administration. You get paid large sums of money, can break the law when you please, and never have to worry about getting fired. Where do I apply?

A list of resignations in no particular order:

I know there are many, many, many more I could list here but I don't have all day. Here are just a "few."

1. every administration has turnover.

every administration calls firings "resignations"

[Atman]

2. Bush has no power to fire anyone.

The people he's appointed to his goon squad often have even more power than he does by virtue of the goods they have on him. That's why half of them are there, as rewards for their loyalty, fealty and keeping their mouths shut. The rest were put there by Cheney and Rummy. Bush is just a stooge for the real power players.

3. He only fires those less competent than he is

So far, the list is blank.
