Just in from yahoo news---initial news on testimony of Gonzales.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070419/ap_...tors;_ylt=AodaNb2m1yL6VuZjxk1MV2Ks0NUE
But the part I find hard to believe is the emphasis on the question if Gonzales was in the loop
regarding the firings of US attorneys---or only played a minor role.
Either way the question still boils down to were the firing justified---or has Gonzales allowed a culture of partisan politics to have any inputs in what is still the American people's dept. of Justice. And when the scandal broke it was incumbent on Gonzales to either re-hire the fired attorneys and fire those partisan elements within his own department---or to endorse the decision and now defend it.---------straddling the fence will not do it.
