breaking on faux from Gonzales

[Laura PourMeADrink]

"I will not resign"

[EFerrari]

1. Hmm. Torquemada is toast. n/t

[opihimoimoi]

2. Acting DEFIANT is NOT COOL....Whats wrong with this dude...? Hardheaded?

Blind? Deaf? Stupid? 75% of the People want his ass and he still wants to stay?

Sheesh....

[Eurobabe]

11. He took lessons from his Master, the DECIDER.

[rodeodance]

3. Is he on Fox?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

15. it was in a speech somewhere from last night - don't know why

they called it breaking today...

[Pryderi]

4. Gonzales may know where some Texan bodies are buried and has leverage.

[pwb]

5. who cares what the radical right repub-lie-cant network says about anything?

[Dr.Phool]

6. A friend of mine used to have a saying,

"They start acting like that right before they get shot".

[saltpoint]

7. There will be some confluence of circumstances which drive him out.

Gonzales is over with. He fell in with the wrong crowd years ago in Texas and has disgraced his office.

His own party's top guns are tellingly silent about his performance. Amost no one has risen to his defense.

And the subpoenas have the potential to make things terribly interesting in coming days.

[WinkyDink]

8. Ah, but evil can influence only those with already-blackened hearts.

[saltpoint]

9. Yes, but Gonzales is outnumbered.

The sheer logistics of survival in office depend on who's at your back.

The GOP voices are silent.

[Eurobabe]

10. I am not a crook n/t

[peaches2003]

12. Bush pushed him

Gonzo would never go before the press and make such a statement w/out Bush/Rove putting the words in his mouth and pushing him out there. The man doesn't have an independent thought in his head and is a flunky.

Faux went to play the piece and there was no sound. It must have embarrassed even them.

[Crankie Avalon]

13. "You'll have to actually fire me!" Not even a hint of dignity for Gonzo and his exit. nt

[Solly Mack]

14. Yeah? Rumsfeld said the same thing (LINK)

Rumsfeld says he won’t resign

MANAGUA, Nicaragua - Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, coming under renewed fire for his management of the Iraq war, said Sunday he is not considering resigning and said the president had called him personally in recent days to express his continued support.

He said that in Oct of 2006...he resigned in November of 2006

Bush called Rumsfeld too and expressed his support.

[nadinbrzezinski]

16. We are getting more and more Nixonian

Lordly, lordly...

[Marr]

17. Thank god.

This really keeps the corruption on the front page, and makes it even more clear that Gonzales' crimes are Bush's crimes as well.

[Nikki Stone1]

18. Same thought myself

...

[Rydz777]

19. Same here

I hear the sound of a slow drip, drip, drip.
