Did Obama, Clinton, or Bush have an AG that willfully showed insubordination and encouraged it to their subordinates? I'm surprised her action didn't get more

  Did any of the three of them dash off a quick little EO with no warning or legal counsel? And it's not insubordination to refuse to do something that you, the head lawyer for an entire nation, find to be illegal. It's doing your damn job.

  In March of 2004 John Ashcroft's Justice Department determined that the Bush Administration's Stellar Wind surveillance program was illegal. While Ashcroft was in the hospital being treated for acute pancreatitis, President Bush sent White House Counsel Alberto Gonzales and Chief of Staff Andrew Card to tell Ashcroft to sign a document overturning his department's ruling. He refused. He remained Attorney General until February 3rd, 2005, when he resigned the office.

    The Acting AG at that time? The current FBI director, James Comey. Truth is stranger than fiction.
