A roundup of Gonzo's Testimony last week.....
In case you missed Alberto Gonzales's electrifying testimony before the House Judicary Committee last week, he's been getting some rave reviews. Here are the highlights:
But let's be fair. It wasn't all bad.
"The attorney general went up and gave a very candid assessment, and answered every question he could possibly answer _ honestly answer _ in a way that increased my confidence in his ability to do the job" -- George W. Bush.
"A pathetic performance!" -- The Capital Times
"Mr. Gonzales came across as a dull-witted apparatchik incapable of running one of the most important departments in the executive branch!" -- The New York Times
"The overwhelming impression Mr. Gonzales left was that of an out-of-touch executive who had little idea why these prosecutors were fired in his name!" -- The Dallas Morning News
"Gonzales said more than 70 times that he could not recall the details of the prosecutors' firing!" -- The Houston Chronicle
"Attorney General Alberto Gonzales looked like an ineffective, and at times clueless, leader!" -- The Seattle Times
"Really deplorable!" -- Sen. John Cornyn, (R-TX)
"Why is your story changing!" -- Sen. Chuck Grassley, (R-IA)
"I believe the best way to put this behind us is your resignation!" -- Sen. Tom Coburn, (R-OK)
But let's be fair. It wasn't all bad.
"The attorney general went up and gave a very candid assessment, and answered every question he could possibly answer _ honestly answer _ in a way that increased my confidence in his ability to do the job" -- George W. Bush.
