From ThinkProgress.org:
During yesterday's hearing, Gonzales claimed that he has since learned most of the firings were due to poor management issues of the former prosecutors. Yet US attorney Rachel Paulose saw four of her top staffers step down in protest oh her "dictatorial management style" with the intention of sending a message to Washington that she is in over her head and managed to retain her position. Instead, the AG's office issued a statement reaffirming their support of Paulose while the eight prosecutors have lost their jobs based on manufactured evidence. Given Paulose's background it is easy to see why she got to stay: she is a former special assistant to AG Gonzales and is good friends with Monica Goodling. The message this sends is it is okay to do a terrible job as long as you know the right people.
