Dear Mr. Gonzales:
Please do the country a favor and resign now. The Senators are not the only people who do not have any confidence in you. Most Americans do not have any confidence in you either.
Your remarks to Senator Durbin regarding the your contention that he was attacking career members of the Justice Department was particularly appalling. He was only attacking the political hacks the Bush administration has appointed, such as yourself.
Sincerely,
Laurie D. T. Mann
August 27, 2007: Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales Resigns (and there was some rejoicing)
September 29, 2008: After a lengthy investigation, prosecutor appointed to probe attorney firings. Interestingly, this was announced on the morning of the day that the Bush bailout of Wall Street was defeated.
