This morning embattled US Attorney General Alberto Gonzales announced his long overdue resignation. It's about time!!!!
Gonzales refused to answer questions posed to him by a Senate committee about his involvement in and knowledge of the US Attorney purge. The administration tried to protect the Attorney General (and most likely higher ranking administration officials) by repeatedly invoking "Executive Privilege". Mr. Gonzales was involved in a disgraceful incident when as White House Counsel he and Chief of Staff Andy Card went to the hospital to badger then Attorney General John Ashcroft into approving surveillance measures President Bush claimed he needed to fight his faux "War on Terrorism". Mr. Ashcroft had just underwent Gall Bladder surgery and was incapable of making decisions and had turned over his authority to his second in command James Comey. When Mr. Gonzales was asked to testify about this incident he apparently perjured himself by making knowingly false statements about the nature of the visit, statements which were shown to be untrue by Robert Mueller's sworn testimony in front of a House committee.
Mr. Gonzales should be disbarred and never be allowed to practice law again. The black cloud which enveloped the DoJ, resulting in many resignations within the DoJ, has been lifted. One can only speculate about the permanent damage done to the DoJ by this incident and can it ever recover it's credibility. Finally was Mr. Gonzales another in a long line of rats abandoning the sinking ship or was he pushed overboard to protect the scurrilous Captain and First Mate?
