Parsing the Administration, Part 8,312

NP: CMJ New Music Monthly

The lead of the NYT editorial reads "Attorney General Alberto Gonzales’s claim that eight United States prosecutors were fired for poor performance was always difficult to believe. Now it’s impossible." But did he ever actually say poor performance, or did he just say it was "performance issues."

I'll admit I haven't been looking very closely at it, but I think my early reads of the reporting point to the latter, which intentionally leaves the quality of the performance out of the equation entirely.
