Quite possibly the only Mexican-American liberals want to kick OUT of the country...and he's legal!

Uhh, did I imagine this - or was it real? I THINK that CNN just said that a member of the Bush Justice Department was planning on taking the fifth... since when does the freakin' JUSTICE DEPARTMENT get to plead the fifth?! I mean; wtF?! Don't their TARGETS usually try to plead the fifth? This is like a catcher in the world series jumping up from behind the batter & running the bases, then promptly calling himself "safe" after he slides into home plate. How do you even score this kinda bush-sh|t?! It doesn't matter because the umpire & his seeing eye dog are too busy watching a hockey game that suddenly broke-out in a boxing ring next door to the stadium. Where is the REALITY CHECKER?!

Albert Gonzales is a lying sheesh-of-pit. Typical Peee-rublican. Kakistocracy Bushiite.

Alberto "Sleezy" Gonzales was Dubya's personal lawyer & he once got Uncurious George out of jury duty when he was Governor of Texas - being subjected to jury duty would have legally required George W. Bush to disclose all previous felony arrests, several federal investigations into tax violations & securities & exchange examinations of multiple allegations of illegal stock trades & any previous illegal drug use. (insert "cocaine.MP3" here)

Had that jury duty swearing-in actually happened, that blatant, overt act of criminal perjury could have prevented George W. Bush from becoming the a$s-hat Dictator-in-Chief of the Former United States of America - and the Republican Party MIGHT have still been a viable political party TODAY.

We liberal Democrats salute you, Alberto. Now get up there to the Investigative Committee rooms on Capitol Hill & lie like there's no tomorrow, because FOR YOU, there may NOT be.

From the moment out-of-his-element-looking Alberto Gonzales stepped behind the podium to replace John Ashcroft, I was struck with a profound question: WTF????

Alberto Gonzales: What happens when reality catches up to the fairy tale you've been living. Poor 'berto, caught up like Peter Sellers in the movie "Being There" but with a crowd that would make Satan proud to call "fiends."

George Bush: No talent for spotting talent.

Description of this administration: your down-home-y Kakistocracy (http://www.bartleby.com/61/49/K0004900.html) serving the will of Sociopathic Plutocrats world over.

Not this time for him. I believe Bush is looking to ingratiate himself (at long last) with his base of conservative republicans and will stay away from Gonzales for now. I believe Gonzales will be the 3rd nominee during Bush's presidency.

I see pluses and minuses with Gonzalez: the pluses being that he's be confirmed recently by the Senate, he'd be the first Hispanic justice, he'd be a consensus pick if Bush doesn't want a fight (even Harry Reid said he'd vote for him). The minuses have primarily to do with the conservative base of the GOP, and the fact that he'd have to recuse himself from some cases and the Court could potentially find itself in a 4-4 deadlock. I don't think he'll be the pick (this time.)

Though he's reportedly an odds on favorite of George Bush himself I personally would be dismayed by the choice. Gonzales has proven he can execute the laws and I trusted he would do so as attorney general. However his rulings from the bench leave much to be desired. He refused to uphold a parental consent law for abortion and his highly favorable of the unconstitutional practice of affirmative action. I think this would be a poor choice for our highest bench.

Isn't this the guy who signed off on the torture memos? If he gets on the bench, de Sade should be made Chief Justice
