In this module, we are asked to read about the firings of seven United States attorneys in late 2006. We are asked whether or not these attorney’s have statutory protection from the Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) against dismissal, our personal feelings on whether this move was “fair”, and what we feel the implications could be for public administration if the issue is let go. In researching the current status of this case, I did find an article that was released within the hour of typing my case, and like most federal cases involving the upper echelon of government, it is still ongoing. This latest headline states, “DC Grand Jury Issues Subpoenas in Probe Into U.S. Attorney Firings”, in which these subpoenas are expected to be for documents and e-mails. And, one by one, those involved seem to be resigning, and with the upcoming administration change, more people will be replaced. (Leopold, 2008) And in another article published today, The New York Times writes that the new Attorney General will have to keep up on this investigation once approved and sworn in. (The New York Times, 2008) In the end, I hope to answer these questions without much vagueness as is so the norm of the U.S. political system.
