He is going to make his people work. plain and simple. and in case you havent noticed people cant get rich working on a governmanet salary. Federal Executive pay is capped by the govmt. These people didnt attend some community college.

They didn't jump, they were pushed.
Ashcroft gets replaced by someone who approves of torture and locking people up without charges or an attorney.
Powell gets replaced by someone who will tell Bush what he wants to hear instead of what he needs to hear.
Goss wants a CIA "supportive" of this administration in an organization that should be apolitical.
No dissent, no differing opinions, no real thought.
Just what GWB wants.

Better to resign than die in a plane crash Text
Seriously though, the appointments are generally considered a single term appointment, and they aren't so much resigning as "not being asked to remain."
I think Tom Ridge is the only one that actually resigned that the administration would have preferred remain, but he's also a potential 08' presidential candidate & it's hard to run as president if all people remember about you is those stupid warnings.
I suspect the Administration would have preferred Powell remain also, but he's made it well knwon for ~1.5 years that he planned to leave.

I strongly disagree with your statement about Powell. He has been a thorn in the side of this administration since Iraq came on the table. Bob Woodward does a good job of describing how Powell was cut out of the decision making process.
It has been Cheney, Rummy and Wolfie against Powell, and Powell didn't say a damned thing Bush wanted to hear.
