That job was a little gift from Karl Rove who made room for his man Griffin by demanding the firing of US prosecutor Bud Cummins.

13. And Sampson Makes Three...

Yup. Sampson matches the set perfectly. As he didn't come into play in this particular story, unfortunately, I didn't have the cause to include him in the "separated at birth" graphic I used with the article.

4. Man, these guys all stood in the "pasty-faced" line, didn't they?

And they were amply gifted there. Ugly, doughy, maybe charter members of the "Revenge of the Nerds" club. Yuck. What a bunch. They're as unsavory on the outside as they are on the inside.
