Bu$hCo Human Resource/Loyalty Department

All the coverage of Abu Gonzalez and his DOJ showing some U.S. Attorneys the door reminds one of how this administration tends to handle personnel. Ignore Michael "Heck of Job" Brownie and Bernie Kerik (allegedly facing jail time these days) and Harriet Myers and ... Let's turn our eyes to where historians will often first look when examining this disaster of an administration by looking at Iraq.

Imperial Life in the Emerald City : Life Inside the Green Zone by Washington Post reporter Rajiv Chandrasekaran appears to the left and may be purchased or at least pondered at Amazon. Both Mr. Chandrasekaran's own reporting in The WaPo and Tom Regan's in the CS Monitor can help you get a handle on the mess that was Bu$hCo's Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq.

James O'Beirne, perhaps known by many as the spouse of frequently booked GOP apologist Kate O'Beirne (Old Sixty Grit herself, likely still earning most of her pay at The National Review I'd venture), did the hiring and it should be clear that loyalty and ideology was the foundation of the staffing effort. Peace ... or War!
