converted the Justice Department into an arm of the Republican Party by firing meritorious federal prosecutors who refused to base decisions on whom to prosecute on political considerations--to help Republicans win election, an offense James Madison discussed in a speech to the Senate on June 17, 1789, in which Madison said, "The danger then consists merely in this, the president can displace from office a man whose merits require that he should be continued in it. What will be the motives which the president can feel for such abuse of his power, and the restraints that operate to prevent it? In the first place, he will be impeachable by this house, before the senate, for such an act of mal-administration; for I contend that the wanton removal of meritorious officers would subject him to impeachment and removal from his own high trust." http://www.gwu.edu/~ffcp/mep/displaydoc.cfm?docid=fc11904 http://www.commondreams.org/archive/2007/03/27/113/print/;"" phil burk*
