If standing up for the Constitution makes my a whiner, then I'll be a Weiner before standing aside as Bush and Schumer agree on a liberal AG.
"Oh, he didn't nominate Pat Buchanan to be AG, he isn't conservative enough for me."
"Bush wants immigration reform, I'm voting/voted for Tom Tancredo."
"Bush won't drop a nuke on Mecca, he is sucking up to Muslims".
"Bush says civil unions should be left up to the states, he is trying to court the fag vote."
"Bush won't round up and execute every illegal alien, so I'm going to go nuts on an Internet forum and vote for Tom Tancredo."
Sadly this is what a large number of people here say on a regular basis. Sure I've made it a bit sarcastic but the truth is not far from what I've said.
Gonzales will do fine as AG. He is not going to be writing laws or interpreting the laws. His job will be to enforce the laws, even the ones he might not agree with. Had he been appointed to the Supreme Court, it would be a different issue. AG is a job for a good lawyer and administrator who knows the law and will enforce it.
