lou dobbs, AG alberto gonzalez is a honduran native whose mother came to

[flordehinojos]

this country (illegally, perhaps?) though they may have papers now, they are browned skinned, the AG works to kiss bushes derriere and rubber stamp whatever evil and repression the bushit boy and his poppy want for this country?

should he be returned to honduras? i am just wondering what your thinking on AG alberto gonzalez and his migratory journey is or should be.

3. Huh? Is this an April Fools thread? GONZALES' parents were Mexican

and GONZALES was born in San Antonio. What's this about, again?

both his parents were children of immigrants from Mexico with less than a high-school education themselves.

5. ooops you are right, though i had read that he was the son of some

immigrant from honduras ... still and all ... he does not seem to have a very good character as attested to by the following:


"The article points out that Gonzales may have left out many details that would be considered critical for then-Governor Bush to determine whether a prisoner would be executed such as factors of mental illness of incompetence, childhood abuse, remorse, and rehabilitation. Additionally, investigations found Mr Gonzales "repeatedly failed to apprise the governor of crucial issues in the cases at hand: ineffective counsel, conflict of interest, mitigating evidence, even actual evidence of innocence". Consequently, the State of Texas has executed more prisoners during Gonzales’ and Bush’s term – 56 of them – that included Terry Washington, a 33-year-old mentally retarded man with the communications skills of a seven-year-old.

In 1999, Governor Bush appointed Gonzales to the Texas Supreme Court. This was a surprising and controversial announcement given that Gonzales had no prior judiciary experience. When Bush was elected to his first presidency term, he appointed Gonzales to his general counsel. He has served at this position prior to his nomination for U.S. Attorney General."


and as far as his biography goes ../ this is what it says:
"Born on August 4th, 1955 in San Antonio to Pablo and Maria Gonzales. Both parents were hardworking Mexican migrant workers. Alberto was one of eight children. He grew up in North Houston in a house built by his father and two uncles, sharing two bedrooms with 10 family members.

He returned to Houston after receiving his law degree and began work at one of the premier law firms in Texas, Vinson & Elkins. In 1994, Gonzales was named general counsel to then-Texas Governor George W. Bush. He worked that position until 1997, when Bush named him Texas Secretary of State. As Governor Bush’s counsel in Texas from 1994-1997, Gonzales was responsible for reviewing all clemency requests. Recently an article in The Atlantic Monthly in 2003, alleged that Gonzales gave insufficient counsel, failed to take into consideration a wide array of factors, and actively worked against clemency in a number of borderline cases."

so i wonder what sort of hatred runs through his veins that has him authorizing such vindictive measures against people. i wonder if he is just as much of a sociopath as bush is. and i wonder who is he symbollically putting to death by denying clemency to people and authorizing the torture of other human beings.

in my book alberto gonzalez is not a good seed. that is why he and bushit boy make such a good mix.

4. Did she come to the US legally? That should be easy to determine.

6. actually, his parents were Mexicans ...it seems i had soem misinformation.

though, this is what his biography says

"Born on August 4th, 1955 in San Antonio to Pablo and Maria Gonzales. Both parents were hardworking Mexican migrant workers. Alberto was one of eight children. He grew up in North Houston in a house built by his father and two uncles, sharing two bedrooms with 10 family members."


it refers to his parents as Mexican Migrant Workers... Migrant workers usually are undocumented, though i don't know, given the fact that i seem not to have had the correct information on his native country, or that of his parents, whether they came here legally, or illegally.
