I'm wondering what it would take for the president to state that an appointee no longer has his full confidence and support. He has stayed loyal, even when his appointees have obviously failed the country—-Gonzales, Alphonso Jackson, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld……

Edit doesn't work worth beans...

My revised comment was meant to say:

The President believes that the Attorney General answered all of their questions honestly and forthrightly. I can understand there are some people who still don’t want to support the Attorney General; that is their right. But he has done a fantastic job at the Department of Justice. He is our number one crime fighter. He has done so much to help keep this country safe from terrorists. He has worked determinately to prevent predators from attacking our children. He has worked — they have a fantastic record of fighting corruption in government and in keeping gang violence off our streets.

And I could go on and on, but I think that following the hearing and following the tension that was in the room, I think on this new day I think — hopefully people will be able to take a step back, realize that there was no credible evidence of wrongdoing, that the Attorney General has apologized for how it was handled, and that he has a job to do, and he’s been doing it very well. And the President has full confidence in him.

Thanks for revising your view DLS. You seem to have come closer to the truth this time 'round.

If you watched Gonzo in action at any of the Senate hearings, it would definitely make you question the man's credibility. He came off as either a total idiot for failing to remember numerous recent key meetings and phone calls about the fired attorneys, or a pathological liar, who was obstructing justice. His non-answers to the Senators' pointed questions led to jaw-dropping disbelief and cynicism for anyone watching. He destroyed his own reputation for W— hope it was worth it!

Simply being a yes man doesn't qualify him to be a lobbyist. [grin] And it indeed is interesting how he is viewed as toxic waste, or at least unappealing, to so many.

Another reason law firms aren't lining up for Gonzales is that he viewed the AG job as a way to give Bush what Bush and his administration wanted. He was a yes man for Bush. The AG should ensure justice for all Americans and keep the government in check.

I would question Gonzales' ethics, he placed personal interests (the Bush administration) ahead of the interests of the coumtry. He definitely did not show good judgement as a lawyer and all the world saw it.

Good for law firms for not wanting to be tainted by a bad lawyer with poor priorities.
