He’s a Lousy Leader
That’s good enough reason for Alberto Gonzales to resign. He evidently had a closed door meeting in Chicago with Federal prosecutors.

That’s good enough reason for Alberto Gonzales to resign. He evidently had a closed door meeting in Chicago with Federal prosecutors. The meeting was hosted by Patrick Fitzgerald, and was attended by US Attorneys from the region. The NYTimes article indicates that the prosecutors at the meeting did not make it comfortable for Mr. Gonzales. They are evidently miffed about some personnel issues. . . but also about some decisions where they weren’t even consulted. I love the way in which Mr. Gonzales reportedly responded, that he wasn’t even aware of the policy decision. That’s become a standard for the Bush White House, to deny knowledge of anything, even if it is an important part of their duties.
Yes, he is a lousy leader.





The die has been cast, the dog has been hung, the bell has been poured as a strange looking Russian walks around mumbling some kind of enigmatic gibberish and the subtitles flash by too quickly to give us a clue. But not to worry, as the worm has turned and, yes, what was only a pipe dream of cryptic scrawls rendered by the nubbins of a discarded Ticonderoga #2 pencil in some smoke filled opium den of iniquity is now poised to be a reality. The plumbing gentlemen of the Democratic party will commence repair of the broken GOP shit pipe, with final sealing and inspection instigated 2008. The next step? The realization of a dream as seen through a smoky dark glass of fettered ambitions. So who gets the first flush? Is this the first blush (flush?) of spring? Oh plumbing fellows, mister plumbing gentlemen, purveyor of plumbing apparatus chaps, could this be the end of little Georgie? As Roy Rogers proctologist said, “Happy trails to you.”
