Gonzales to Resign

[aimee]

They have found pretty strong evidence that Gonzalez committed perjury in the Ashcroft case.

Who are They?

I think it is fair to compare the treatement of Janet Reno with that of Alberto Gonzales to see the unpleasant difference in the way the two parties deal with their political opponents. Gonzales was not the best of AGs but Reno was surely one of the worst, despite which she was never treated like he was.

I totally agree with this assessment.

I am interested in the upcoming hearings and anticipate the following question to be somewhat of a litmus test to be passed by the next A.G….

“Sir, if chosen to be Attorney General, would you approve an investigation of the previous activities of the Justice Department?”

Yeah, the new Congress (with its whopping 15% approval rating) promised to investigate all sorts of Bush Administration misdeeds.

Other than giving Henry Waxman something to do, how’s THAT working out?

(FTR, I’m not too sorry Gonzalez is gone. He didn’t have much of a spine.)

Could all this simply be a case of “what goes around, comes around?”
A little look at the recent past may hold the answer.
I don’t approve in either case, but…
