An anchor from WUSA-TV began her interview with Gonzales asking "wouldn't it help your President and your party as they approach the 2008 elections if you did step down for the good of your party?"

He responded, "let us wait and see what the facts are. You know the question is whether these political appointees--were they removed for improper reasons. We have already provided a lot of information to the Congress. We are going to make DOJ officials available to come and be interviewed and to testify. We want to get to the bottom of what happened here."

Gonzales also repeated he has no intention of resigning. "I think I have been effective in this position. But I will leave it for others to judge as to whether or not I can continue here. I have to remain focused on what I am doing. I am confident that we can continue to do great things for the American public, and I am just going to continue doing my job," he told KDKA radio.

Gonzalez: "...great things for the American public..."

Definition of "American public":

Republican.

Straight.

Hypocritical.

White.

Rich.

Kool-Aid drinker.

Big business owner.

Members of minorities who have been deemed acceptable because they will move the GOP agenda forward. (After that, they are tossed out like trash.)

Anyone corrupt enough to perform a needed function and keep their mouths shut. (After said funtion is performed, they are tossed out like the minorities above. See Katherine Harris for details.)

All others need not apply.

3. As one of "those others to decide"...

I figure he can pack up anytime, and report to Congress precisely what he knows, then get tried, and if convicted of a criminal act, be sentenced to a term appropriate for the crime....That's my decision...

4. So the HEAD of DOJ wants me to believe he has no idea what's
