The Guardian writes 'Hazy Memories' Cited in Attorneys Probe
"The latest e-mails revealed between White House and Justice Department officials show that Rove inquired in early January 2005 about firing U.S. attorneys. They also indicate Gonzales was considering dismissing up to 20 percent of U.S. attorneys in the weeks before he took over the Justice Department."
"Presidential press secretary Tony Snow previously had asserted Miers was the person who came up with the idea, but he said Friday, 'I don't want to try to vouch for origination.' He said, 'At this juncture, people have hazy memories.'"
"'The story keeps changing, which neither does them or the public any good,' Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Friday. 'They ought to gather all the facts and tell the public the truth.'"
