The Raw Story
One of the nine U.S. attorneys whose firing has led to an investigation into the Justice Department alleged a government cover-up of the real reason he was ousted.
John McKay, who was a U.S. Attorney in Seattle during a disputed 2004 Governor’s race in Washington, said over the weekend that he may have been sacked because of insufficient pursuit of criminal charges against Democrats related to that ultra-close race.
“I can see why they would want to come up with an explanation other than the governor’s election for why I would be on such a list,” McKay said in a speech to a group of moderate Republicans in Wenatchee, Wash., according to a McClatchy Newspapers report.
