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.

I'm not making it up. I heard it. He said that Bush should have cleaned out the DOJ of all the Democrats. Just like some of the stupid posters on this site who don't understand the difference between political appointments and civil service employees. And please don't pretend to say that Rush has been supporting this President. Because he hasn't.
Yep; one can only imagine what a confirmation hearing for a Bush nominee for VP would be like.
alot of people on this forum have screwed themselves more then they realize
The dems are playing for keeps
Today I was able to get through to a White House Comment Line (1-202-456-1111) operator and give my quick take:
We who voted for this president twice, in 2000 and 2004, are outraged at what we heard today, that the "White House hopes Attorney General Alberto Gonzales remains."
It's well past time for this president to make it clear all these attorneys serve at his pleasure, that Clinton fired 93 U.S. Attorneys in--
[At this point the operator cheerfully blurted out "1993! Good comment!"]
It is truly--TRULY--the Twilight Zone when the White House Comment Line Operator makes your point for you.
The New Tone has become "Why Not Take All of Me".
I am ready for an SOB to replace the civil, the compliant, the polite--the doormat.
I said, "So we are left to the tender mercies of the likes of CHUCK SCHUMER in sound bites every hour on the hour--"
And the comment line operator laughed--with me--and thanked me for a great comment.
The lights are on at 1600--but is it a timer.
BUMP.
Ive come to the conclusion that since Bush wont stick up for conservatives nor himself, Im done sticking up for him.

And our side wants to set a new tone..:-)
From the looks of having a new tone in Washington, I'd guess the next nominee will be someone that has been vetted by Leahy, Schumer, Kennedy and Specter to ensure smooth sailing during the hearings. We'll be lucky if we get even a RINO.
Me too. Since I don't think he is a coward, there has to be another explanation. It is quite worrying.
If they think that their efforts are going to leave this county stronger, they are sadly mistaken. We are in a world of hurt. And 2008 is going to be ugly.
Did you hear his crap today about Obama and that stupid jingle he made up?
I rolled my eyes because it will come back and haunt us .. not him
We will have plenty of time for these inter party scuffles. At this time, the only thing we can do is call the bustuds we elected and tell them to "fight, for our military's sake"....God knows the leftist media want to see our boys come home maimed and defeated.
Those kids are the only thing worth fighting for now. We can't let this turn into a Vietnam with our brave young men and women the pawns. The surge is stemming the tide and the anti American media and Dems don't want the American people to know it. Fight for our courageous military in Iraq and Afghanistan.
That should have been done years ago.
And please don't pretend to say that Rush has been supporting this President. Because he hasn't.
Rush supports this president on many things. There are many things he doesn't agree with Bush on. Namely border security. Rush, like me, doesn't believe in third parties or staying at home on election day, like many stupid posters on this site believe.
Yet another idiot reveling in what he has "wrought" on this country.
Put a sock in it. I highly doubt YOU brought anybody anywhere.
I want Mr. Majority Maker to take a long vacation. A long, long one.
No, I didn't. I literaly had his program on for 2 mins, heard his complaint about what the Bush administration didn't do in the past, and OFF he went again.
Howlin, you know I love you, but you'd never throw the towel in. 18 months ago you said you would if Harriet Miers was withdrawn. I'm trying to find the female Supreme Court justice currently on the bench nomimated by President Bush in 2005.
