In-Depth Gonzales Coverage
If you’re like me and only watching/listening to parts of the Gonzales testimony, or if you’ve missed it altogether, you can catch up at TPM Muckraker, which has ongoing coverage with summaries and video.
If I had a dollar for every time Gonzales has said “I don’t recall” or “I have no recollection of that” (regarding events that took place in November and December of 2006, fer cryin’ out loud), I’d have a buttload of money already.
His stonewalling and backpedaling are not going over well with committee members of either party. Arlen Specter (R-PA) wondered how he could have made false statements at the January hearings and at his March 13th press conference if he had properly prepared for those events. Lindsay Graham (R-SC) accused him of making up reasons for the firings after the fact.
I think Fredo may need to update his résumé.

I bet you he is the first politician to ever say “I don’t recall”. Can’t say that I blame him, given today’s political climate.

Yeah, poor baby, he’s just a scapegoat. That’s why all the Republicans on the committee are defending him and demanding that his name be cleared. Oh, wait — they’re not.

I kind of hope he hangs in there for a while, so it keeps this whole disgraceful scheme in the public eye.

Well, I’m not sure what I want. I’ve been vascillating. Where, oh where, have all the Honest Abes gone? Are they buried in the annals of our history? Is there no one left to steer the ship?
