Congress can turn in their own resignations at the same time. Who in the hell cares anymore?

I wish they’d all resign.

...a "sizable number" of GOP lawmakers would join Democrats in expressing their lack of confidence in the attorney general.

Call them patriots.

I wish we got to express a Vote of No Confidence in Specter and the rest of the sell outs in the supposedly “GOP” Senate Caucus. Why doesn’t this scumbag simply change parties? He does nothing but harm to our side.

Well, at least he won’t be the next SCOTUS nominee.

I have to hand it to Gonzales.....he got in a scenic, expensive and now worthless European junket before he says adios to his job.

I'm so glad he's going, if this is true. Who gives a damn if it looks like a "victory" for the Dems? Bush has been handing them victory after victory for years, so what difference does one more make?

Rip van Gonzales is the second worst AG in my memory......with you-know-who being first and Ramsey Clark chuggin' along in third.

Gonzales' legacy will be for what he never did rather than what he did do.

Gonzales is a very weak leader, explaining and apologizing for doing perfectly proper and legal firings.

The one area he’s tough, is when persecuting US Border Agents and protecting illegal alien drug smugglers.

It will be good to see Gonzales gone.

Oh please, you haven’t had an original thought in your life. You merely are pouting because I point out what a complete ass you are on Iraq.

From, of all people, Gore Vidal:

Then it is back to politics, the crisis facing America and the folly of detention without trial. ”A few weeks ago, the administration got rid of Magna Carta and habeas corpus... That is Mr [Alberto] Gonzales, our Attorney-General, who thinks he’s Attorney-General of Mexico. Where he belongs. No, that is not a racist remark. But it’s on the edge.”

I hope he doesn’t, because there’s really no reason for him to do so. That said, he’s been so low-keyed and ineffectual as AG that nobody would notice.

Bush needs a bulldog there.

Could be. They need something to take the focus off immigration.

Why deprive the Senate of the opportunity to vote? Are the Senators afraid? If they’re so convinced he shouldn’t be in office, they should be willing to vote the courage of their convictions.

I’m firmly convinced that professional politicians are some of the most worthless people in society.

Congress, having a 28% approval rating, holds a non binding no confidence vote on Gonzo.

Tell me what's wrong with that picture.

Who cares!!! Adios Senor Gonzales and take Bush with you!!

If Gonzales and Bush were on a skyscraper and both fell off at the same time, who would hit the ground first?

Answer: WHO CARES?

Same with the rest of the congress. This country is going to hell in a hand basket and these jokers do not have a clue.

I certainly hope Gonzales is on the way out. He is only hurting the administration he works for.

I guess we can expect the next whining tell-all book about how nothing was his fault 6 months afterward.

The Justice Department STILL has not administered a lie-detector test to Sandy Berger.
The Justice Department is corrupt to the core, and Bush apparently likes it that way.
Good riddance to bad garbage. Buh-bye, Gonzales.

This isn’t a parliamentary system, a “no confidence” vote is (or should be) meaningless. The Senate already had a shot at the functional equivalent of a no confidence vote when they confirmed the guy, they shouldn’t get a “do over”. There are a lot of us who would not be unhappy to see Alberto go, but let’s be careful what we wish for, for his removal would only whet the appetite of the Democrat predators (and set the stage for the Bush and/or Cheney impeachment). Anyone who thinks that the next AG the President might appoint would be any less pro-illegal immigrant or more willing to prosecute Democrat law-breakers than AG Gonzales, is deluding himself/herself.
