"It's time for an impeachment, not just to oust Gonzales, but as a salutary warning to his superiors."
Raw Story
It isn't enough to oust Attorney General Alberto Gonzales for his role in "Attorneygate," Congress should impeach him, Robert Kuttner writes in an op-ed published in Saturday's Boston Globe.
"Gonzales, the nation's highest legal officer, has been point man for serial assaults against the rule of law, most recently in the crude attempt to politicize criminal prosecutions," Kuttner argues. "Obstruction of a prosecution is a felony, even when committed by the attorney general."
Aside from his role in the firing of eight US attorneys, which "had multiple political motives, all contrary to longstanding practice," Kuttner writes, "[t]here are several other reasons to remove Gonzales, all involving his cavalier contempt for courts and liberties of citizens, most recently in the FBI's more than 3,000 cases of illegal snooping on Americans."

Yeah, Impeach Gone-Zo!!
Hi s-q,
Midnight at the oasis...
I felt a north wind hit and all of a sudden I read this...
Impeachment is good for Gonzo and Congress may not stop with him...
Porkrind(Rove) will get nabbed in the Process..
There's even a Precedent for it!
The thought comes to mind now that Bush has spoken up at least 3 times for Gonzo. That means that it is critical for Dumbya to have GONZO at DOJ...And it's sure not for the Kiddies...
But in his Arrogance Bush has locked himself into an Increased Scrutiny of his Administration!
WOW!! He can't be that Dumb sq ?
Could he ? LOLMAO*)
;)
s-q,
The Dogs are Cornered now...
Only choice for Bush and Cheney now is what they have done before...
"Distraction."
They could Launch an Attack on Iran or something else...
But Bush must remember that he said in front of America to the question of Unilaterally attacking Iran without Congress!
He said: "That's Absurd!"
Hey GEF!
Burning the midnight oil, huh?
Yep, the Dumbya is that dumb and I would bet there is more to this story...
Also, I think Porkrind is in for a big surprise too! LOLMAO
Gonzo lied and he obstructed justice by doing so! Can you believe it? The AG lying?? Those guys are all liars!
s-q,
I see you are too...
You got that story before it hit the pipes..
I'm gonna have to call you the Road Runner! LOL*)
As for Rove, Yep, He's gonna get Diarrhea when he reads it....
Congress is gonna pull in Rove like the Old Song Dancers that sucked used to get hauled off the Stage with a loop stick!
Road Runner? LMAO
Yeah, I guess I'm gonna have to get my 'license to tell stories now'! ROFLMAO
Turdblossom and Dumbya are going to be sweating bullets now! LOL
