Gonzales Says Again He Won't Resign
Gonzales Says Again He Won't Resign

POSTED: 11:40 am PDT March 30, 2007
UPDATED: 11:52 am PDT March 30, 2007

BOSTON -- U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales told reporters in Boston on Friday that he has no plans to resign, and maintains he merely signed off on the firings of eight prosecutors.

The embattled attorney general spoke to reporters after meeting with Boston-based U.S. Attorney Michael Sullivan and other local prosecutors.

Asked why he wouldn't resign, Gonzales said he thinks he's "fighting for the truth." He said every step he's taken is consistent with the principles of truth and accountability.

1. It's better for our standing in the world if we legally take him out
because it would show the world we do not support his actions!

4. Keep fighting Berto.
We don't want Bush making a recess appointment.
And we'd like to see other of your subordinates call you a liar.
And then we want you to be impeached.
So keep fighting Berto.

11. Translation - I don't have a cushy "job" lined up yet -
When Dumbya finds me one plus some immunity here and there - watch me scoot.

14. remember how many times people asked for Rumsfeld's resignation?
They constantly insisted that he would remain and then poof he was gone!!

I usually tend to believe the opposite of what these guys tell me. I mean, when was the last time they ever told us the truth about anything?

19. Works for me... The longer he clings desperately to power...
the longer Leahy, Conyers, Waxman, etc. will be able to use this scandal to dig deeper into the White House corruption. Keep it up, and not only will Gonzo be forced out, but so will Rove, Miers, Cheney and Bush.

IMPEACH!!!

20. Only what is best for Bush will happen.
You can be sure that no one counts in this mess but protecting Bush to the end. We, I can guess, will see our men die in Iraq until this man is out of office. Then he will blame it on every one else. AG will be just another man left to swing in the wind. It is not the first time Bush has let others take the blame. Look at his business doings. And you always have people who will aid the powerful as they go down just as when they were coming up.
