It’s nice to know that our public servants at the Department of Justice and White House are regular folks like you and me.  Even when they’re busy targeting U.S. attorneys who should be “pushed out” because they haven’t “exhibited loyalty to the President and the Attorney General” they can still observe the niceties of standard office e-mails, complete with “things have been crazy around here!” excuses for late replies, and regular mentions of the boss reviewing decisions he would review in any case — to make sure everyone knows that this work is important.  The only difference is that these pleasantries are being exchanged on the public’s time and the public’s dime.  And then there’s the question of how truly “political” political appointees in law enforcement should be.
