I repeat myself, you really do need to brush u on your reading comprehension skills. Where do I write that Ted Kennedy being an amoral windbag was the reason for keeping Gonzales in?
Teddy does need to keep his big, fat, amoral trap shut. The man has no standing to criticize ANYONE. Mary Jo's assassin should have done the right thing, if he was a moral man, and resigned long time ago.
Why do YOU think that Gonzales needs to go, othern than there is a chorus of Dem hacks calling for his head?

I agree, there is no doubt about that.

I am not surprised at your lapse in memory.
No President in recent history ever fired ALL U.S. Attorneys. His actions were intended to put his cronies in strategic places. Of all Presidents in recent history, Clinton, more than any other, used the Justice Department to advance his ideological agenda and to silence his critics.
Such wholsesale firings interfered with ongoing prosecutions. This was especially galling since Billy-Janet had no ready replacements for many of the fired U.S. Attorneys.

And Janet did? She was the biggest political hack ever to fill the position of AG. She had no prior qualifications to hold the position. Being a second-rate prosecutor in Miami does nto cut it. She only got the job because, nominally, she is a female.
Her performance as AG was abysmal. She was willing, based on faulty and incomplete intelligence, to kill, shoot and burn children in order to separate them from their parents. Yet, the same Janet was willing to drag a child, at gunpoint from the home of his relatives to return him to kastro and that "workers paradise." Her legal arguments in the Elian case (espeially in light of her past performance) strained all legal credulity. Everyone knows that she was acting on Billy's order. Return the boy to kastro and thus punish the Cuban-American community for their support of Republicans. Great job!
You know, all politicians are bad, some are worse than others.
I just want honesty. Admit that you are a hack and a whore (I don;t care if you are conservative or liberal) and just move on. Abandon all pretense to holding the high moral ground.
If billy-boy had said, "Yes janet is a hack doing my bidding and yes I screwed around with Monica" I would have a great deal more respect for him.
I just get tired of all of these sanctimonious whores calling for Gonzales' lynching when in the past they have supported other AG who were incompetent, crooked hacks.
Wrap your head, if you can, around that concept!
