Schumer and his moonbats and nutroots have their wish. They have ridden another member of the administration out of town. This a case of Washington politics at its worst. The Democrats have their pound of flesh, and the United States has no Attorney General.Gonzales will have to be replaced but the question is who is going to replace him. Or better yet, who would want to replace him given that this administration has only 16 month left in power. At best it will be a temporary assignment for whoever is lucky (unlucky) enough to make it through the Senate confirmation gauntlet.
Gonzales by all accounts was an effective AG. His only true fault was being too nice. A trait that is of little use in the circle of Capital politics. He should have simplt testified the facts. US Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the President. Period.
This entire fiasco is worse than the Scotter Libby witch hunt. It reveals the depths to which politicans will sink in order gain politcal advantage. There was no crime, no conspiracy. The resources and manpower wasted on these useless investigations highlight why DC needs a thorough house cleaning.
