White House Seeking Gonzales Replacements

[240 is Back]

Republican officials operating at the behest of the White House have begun seeking a possible successor to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, whose support among GOP lawmakers on Capitol Hill has collapsed, according to party sources familiar with the discussions.

Republican sources also disclosed that it is now a virtual certainty that Deputy Attorney General Paul J. McNulty, whose incomplete and inaccurate congressional testimony about the prosecutors helped precipitate the crisis, will also resign shortly. Officials were debating whether Gonzales and McNulty should depart at the same time or whether McNulty should go a day or two after Gonzales. Still known as "The Judge" for his service on the Texas Supreme Court, Gonzales is one of the few remaining original Texans who came to Washington with President Bush.

This seems inevitable, there's too much of a firestorm over Gonzales for him to keep his job. Our President is having a tough run of luck in the last years of his Presidency.

I wonder what his legacy will be. I wonder how historians will treat him. It's interesting Bush 41 was only a one term President but I imagine historians will treat him far better than his two term son.

This seems as good a time as any to add...

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Neotaints here have said that Gonzalez did nothing wrong.

So, um, we have one of two scenarios happening:

1) You're wrong, and Gonzalez IS guilty, or

2) You're right, he is innocent, but the Republicans don't have the balls to stand up for their man.



So which is it?
