Read the source document, the Bush administration's DoJ IG report on the firing of the US Attorneys....the juice on Iglesias starts at page 182. It is hard to be more definitive since the key parties involved (Rove, NM members of Congress) refused to cooperate with the investigation, which in itself did not serve the public interest.

The character assassination of Iglesias...The White House stating publicly that he was fired for poor performance, despite having the highest internal review ratings, and for being absent too often, which was the result of his being in the National Guard and called to duty. As noted in the DoJ IG report, the pressure to fire Iglesias was political.
