Do you really believe this bullshit about Gonzales ?
Edited on Sat May-27-06 08:13 AM by kentuck
About how he was going to "quit" if he didn't get his way on the Jefferson investigation? When has he ever done anything without the consultation or approval of this White House? He is not that type of "independent" thinker. But why would that story break now? And who would break it? And who benefits from this story? A few questions that I have....

3. It is all smoke and mirrors
They want the hype to continue, the story to stay in the headlines.
Why?
Because the search was done on a Democrat Representative?
Do they want exploit the fact that they raided a Democrats office, Make like the Dems are dirty too?

5. Agreed !!!
The Bush admiistration is expert at playing both sides of the fence. To keep this from looking like the real fuckup it is, they want to pretend that Gonzo would resign because he feels that strong about it. But this came from Bush with Bush'c connivance, to take the heat off the Repubs. Notice they didn't do it to Mey or Delay?? Delay is under actual indictment, something Jefforson isn 't.
I'd like to see it happen!! (Gonzo's resignation)

6. Total BS...Just another way to keep the "corrupt Democrat" on page one.
That also explains Bush's magnanimous 45 day hold...this story will run all the way up to the midterms.

Does anyone really believe that Bush didn't sign off on this raid in the first place? Of course he did. Everything since then has followed the Rovian script to keep the (single) corrupt Democrat on the front page/lead story in the MSM.

7. Gonzales has no integrity
There is no way he would quit over anything.

He'll have to be dragged out, preferably in shackles.

8. Gonzales
Yes this whole thing really smells funny.

Why would someone resign on principle WHEN THEY DON'T HAVE ANY????

Gonzales only stands for helping Bush BREAK THE LAW. Not the best principles to live by, in my book.

Does get you mildly curious to try to understand the strategy here, if there is any?
