Gonzales to Hold Press Conference
By Paul Kiel - March 13, 2007, 12:16 PM

Just over the transom... as calls for his resignation get louder, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales will be holding a press conference at the Department of Justice at 2:00 PM today.

1. Is Bush back in town yet?
I'm betting he won't resign until Bush gets back, but it wouldn't be the first time of many that I've been wrong.

4. I doubt he'd resign
He's one-a THEM, doncha know. Total arrogance--they never believe they've done anything wrong and even if they do, they don't care--they just keep doing it.

Now--please let me be wrong on this!

7. Dunno anymore--if it were still a Con Majority I'd agree
but the Libby conviction has brought to light how these guys work and, specifically, that Rove as usual had his hand in it. I'm not sure the WH wants live hearings broadcast on Faux for days on end detailing Rove's involvement over this as well.

But I have to admit, I'm really enjoying the can of worms that's been opened!

8. If he was resigning, he wouldn't hold a press conference
He'd just submit a letter. I can't imagine why he would face the press if he was resigning.

10. Have to agree
To borrow a phrase from Bob Dylan, that would be like selling postcards of the hanging. I don't foresee a resignation. But I'd love to be wrong.

12. I foresee a major distraction, or flat denial. If distraction, it'll be something like threat code
lavender paisley or something, with some janitors huffing ammonia and planting cartoon character lunchboxes full of peanut butter sandwiches.

go ahead, laugh, but I bet the reality is not much less fantastic at the press conference.
