Gonzales is Gonzo, for real.

I just watched the speech by the president in reaction.

"...his good name was dragged through the mud for political reasons."

I SHIT YOU NOT.

Link?

There will probably be video of it in a little while. I was watching it on CNN.

Gonzo's Greatest Hits, vol 1

holy fuck, I laughed so hard that I spat coffee all over the keyboard........!!!!!!!!

I burst out cheering and swearing in the middle of a conversation when I read this. I ha to apologize to the person. FUCK YOU ONE LAST TIME, GONZALES!!!

I can't find a direct link, but it's on CNN video, under the title, "Bush on Gonzales resignation".

After a shitty night's sleep and the prospect of a lousy day at work - everything is suddenly OK.

next theory.........'
perhaps Gonzo resigned now so that when congress reconveins in September and finally corners his ass on all of the illegal activities.......Bush can pardon him........can't pardon the AG for crimes committed as AG while he is still AG......... well maybe chimpy has a signing statement about that.......

Someone who understands how this administration thinks.

I wouldn't doubt this is too far from the truth.

I'll miss you Gonzo; you raised incompetence, and contempt for our justice system to an art form. No one will be able to "not recall" the way you do.

*sheds single tear*

you can factor in the same theory about Rove too..........

Quotes from bush's speech:

"Al Gonzales is a man of integrity, decency and principle."

"Under his leadership the justice department has... made enforcement of civil rights laws a top priority..."

"Aggressively and successfully pursued public corruption"

"It's sad that we live in a time when a talented and honorable person like Alberto Gonzales, is impeded from doing important work because his good name was dragged through the mud for political reasons."

Stewart and Colbert are going to have a field day with this.

I am absolutely giddy with anticipation

A practice he has polished to perfection.

Does this mean theyll get those cowl pics back up from those certain sg sets they took down.

LONG time ago.

Gonzales will never be indicted for anything relating to his tenure as Attorney General, nor should he be unless any substantial evidence of his commiting an actual crime is presented by his Democrat tormentors in Congress. Incompetence is not a crime. That having been said, his departure is welcome.

I'm not even so sure about that. That one was "Great," after all.

I disagree. Gonzales can't hold a candle to the Great Gonzo.

Gonzo, Rove, Craig - and that's just in the last week or so. Seems like a lot of Republicans headed for the exit.
