1. He's a presidential apologist
with no regard for the law who considers the Constitution "antiquated." He's an embarrassment to the happy Hispanics in our country. He has lied under oath.

Makes me sick.

3. He admitted it
In testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, he said that as Attorney General "he was the President's lawyer (you can look it up as Casey Stengel used to say).

The AG is not the President's lawyer as we all know, he's the constitutional head of the Justice Department.

9. He was White House counsel before AG
Edited on Tue Apr-04-06 01:19 PM by Marnieworld
So technically he was the president's lawyer when he was justifying torture and dissing the Geneva conventions. His job was to find legal loopholes so they won't be tried and hung as the war criminals that they are.

How many people have suffered and/or died because of a few memos by Gonzales or John Yoo?

2. "Two different points of view"... UGH!!!
Edited on Tue Apr-04-06 12:16 PM by Marr
They are not "two different points of view", god dammit! One is clearly and demonstrably LYING, the other is pointing that lie out.

What the fuck is wrong with these self-proclaimed journalists? There's zero regard for FACT- only spin. It's like there is no reality.

Well, generally they don't qualify for the title of 'journalist'.
But whore will do very nicely.

12. link is good, i just watched it..
i'm amazed to witness this rare showing of courage by Pelosi.

I completely agree with the OP on this woefully ignorant commentary by the reporter - defining this as vastly difference of two points of view.

amazing ignorance and shilling these whores display.
