Bushies Try Something New, Honesty
It is amazing what a change in the majority parties of the House and the Senate will do for honesty. The White House admits tthe firing of seven U.S. attorneys were not because of performance. Justice Department officials admit that Alberto Gonzales approved the terminations. Republican Senatator Pete Domenici told the New York Times that he asked the Justice Department to fire David C. Iglesias.
Democrats scared the shit out of the Bushies after issuing subpoenas. The Bushies know they are screwed and realize it is better to be candid in the media than under oath. I don't see how Gonzales is getting out of this untainted. Gonzales was horrible testifying to the subcommittee with a Republican majority. I don't see his speaking skills suddenly improving. Gonzales also is deeply connected to the torture policy.
He could quickly become a liability for Bush. Gonzales is not a star (and never will be) in his own party. He is boring and the base doubts he is a social conservative. Let's not forget the base hates Latinos. Gonzales is equal parts Mel Martinez and Harriet Miers with more baggage.
Update: Pete Domenici was previously asked about accusations that he had a hand in David Iglesias's termination.
In a brief interview Thursday, Domenici also denied the accusation. "I don't have any comment," he told The Associated Press. "I have no idea what he's talking about."
No idea my ass.

It's hard to say this: That's an insult to Mel Martinez and Harriet. LOL !! (I loathe them equally) but I can't evenn stop at loathing for gonzalez ... I go numb with anguish and outright antipathy when I look at him. I have never heard his voice. I believe him to be sub-human and/or robotic like his latex face will fall off or hang crooked one day.
That gives me the idea of posting the Daily Show video ofGonzales's confirmation hearing. If I can find it. Viacom took a lot of stuff off Youtube.
Your hatred is noted. The NY. Times is a liberal rag that you believe publishes the truth. I wonder why you accept what they say and not say the Washington Times or Fox News?
