Attorney General Alberto Gonzales resigned today. Why today after so many calls for his resignation? I think, combined with the Rove resignation, that they know that the "other shoe is going to drop" with regard to one or another of the investigations that is closing in on them.

The thing that you had to shake your head about with Gonzales is his failed memory on very important meetings that he had. Hey listen, if Al had been at a party in college, which probably was over 30 years ago, and in a side room someone was smoking pot, and he can't remember anything about that, ok, I give that one to him. But come on, he's saying he can't remember really important meetings he had with big shot people talking about really important things? Meetings that most everyone there can remember? That boggles the mind.

Of course, the "I don't recall" excuse has become the dodge de jour of the neocon class. They wouldn't know the truth if it bit them in the ass. I honestly believe that Bush thinks that it is justified for him to tell the people any old lame thing as long as it keeps them from the truth. Afterall, why should we be burdened with what is really going on? Never mind that we are giving these guys many thousands of dollars a year in taxes.

Good riddance Alberto. You lost your credibility a long time ago. Why you stayed this long is amazing. You are nothing more than a political hack. But it isn't just the department of justice that has gone awry. It's about all of the executive branch agencies. They have decided that they hate the people, know better than anyone else what has to be done, and is going to force their opinion on the public no matter what dirty tricks they have to play? Sound like your home town? I bet. It's going around!
