Gonzo'z gone. Now let's go after Cheney (Dave Lindorf)
Let’s be clear. Alberto Gonzales is resigning as attorney general not because he’s become an embarrassment to the Bush administration—which has repeatedly shown itself to be beyond embarrassment—but because he is no longer useful. Exposed as a serial liar and an administration hack, he can no longer be relied upon by the Bush administration to carry forward its criminal agenda of subverting the Constitution, the electoral process and the Bill of Rights, because his every step is being watched by the public and the Congress.


-snip-


But this is no victory unless the Congress follows up by pursuing those who put Gonzales up to his crimes.


The whole reason felons and hacks like Gonzales resign from office is to bury their misdeeds by leaving town.


If Congress then obliges by moving on to other things, the resignation will have succeeded.
