Gonzales In The Hot Seat

So Alberto Gonzales is going to be testifying about the recent firings of several US attorney's. Democratic Senator Schumer says that this testimony will be "make or break", but didn't elaborate on what that means.

Gonzales has already admitted he "misspoke"

Gonzales said he "misspoke" at a March 13 press conference when he said he was not "involved in any discussions about what was going on" -- a statement later contradicted by his chief of staff, Kyle Sampson, who resigned amid the uproar.

"At that same press conference, I made clear that I was aware of the process," Gonzales' testimony will state, noting that Sampson was involved in the process for determining "weak performers."

Gonzales conceded his March 13 statement was "imprecise and overbroad, but it certainly was not in any way an attempt to mislead the American people."


Where I come from, that's called a "lie". This guy needs to be fired for his gross incompetence, flagrant statements about the rights of Americans, and he just comes off as a weasel. Funny thing is, as much as I despise this guy, no one seems to be putting William Jefferson in the hot seat over his bribery charges.
