A Political Fragging

Documents released from the House Judiciary Committee’s two year investigation into the U.S. attorney’s scandal reveal that New Mexico U.S. Attorney David Iglesias was fired at the insistence of Karl Rove because he refused to use his office to advance the partisan agenda of the Republican Party during an election cycle. I discuss the case with Iglesias and DemocracyNow’s Amy Goodman on today’s program, and I come back at the end for a discussion of the rendition of Raymond Azar. (The segment in between on the healthcare town hall meeting at Bucknell University is excellent, too.)
