Repub #3 calls for Gonzo to resign...Rohrabacher

[charlyvi]

CBS:

More Republicans called for his ouster, and one Republican strategist close to the White House told CBS News that Gonzales is “finished.”

Congressman Dana Rohrbacher became the latest Republican to say Gonzales should go, reports CBS News White House correspondent Jim Axelrod. “Even for Republicans this is a warning sign … saying there needs to be a change,” said Rohrbacher. “Maybe the president should have an attorney general who is less a personal friend and more professional in his approach.”


Stick a fork in him....he's done.

1. Interfering with an on-going prosecution is obstuction of justice

Lim's sin was in prosecuting Duke Cunningham. Rove didn't like that. This administration is so dirty.

[charlyvi]

3. They got too cozy with the Rubber Stamp Congress.

They don't seem to have adjusted too well to the new one.

2. Holy shit, Rohrbacher is a hardcore neocon.

Adios amigo.

[charlyvi]

5. Yep. He's probably covering his ass.....

He sees the writing on the wall.

9. He is kind of nutty...

Rep. Rohrabacher: Global Warming May Have Been Caused By ‘Dinosaur Flatulence’
This week, Congress held its first hearing on the landmark IPCC report on climate change. That report concluded that global warming is “unequivocal” and human activity is the main driver, “very likely” causing most of the rise in temperatures since 1950.

During the hearing, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) — one of the 87 percent of congressional Republicans who do not believe in man-made global warming — questioned the authors of the report about a period of dramatic climate change that occured 55 million years ago. “We don’t know what those other cycles were caused by in the past. Could be dinosaur flatulence, you know, or who knows?’

17. No kidding, he's one of the LAST neocons I'd expect to hear that from...

23. That IS surprising

Rohrabacher is one of the biggest Kool-Aid-addicted brainwashed psychopaths in his party and, sadly, he is the Congressman who represents the district where I live (taking a vomit into my waste basket).

4. Wow, even the Rethugs want him to resign. I like that comment

"less a personal friend..."

[rurallib]

7. MAybe Ashcan er -Ashcroft can return?

"Let the Eagles Soar"

[charlyvi]

10. LOL. n/t

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

24. They should solicit Ashcroft by reminding him of those naughty naked statues

that so tempted him before and with which he used to sneak under the tarp at night to have secret statue sex.

6. I hope * digs his heels in like he usually does.

That will be impeachment.

[Catherine Vincent]

8. hmm...once republicans start asking Gonzales to step down, it's bad

It would be different if it were only Democrats and they would say we're playing politics but republicans are starting to ask for his resignation? Wow! It may be as early as tomorrow.

[charlyvi]

11. Possibly. Tomorrow's Friday....

and we know how they love to dump important news on Friday. I think maybe people will notice this time, though.

12. Ten million jobs were lost under the Cheney/Bush cabal.

People are fired and laid off every day due to the wretched exploitation of the 'ownership class' and these people treat a "resignation" of abu Gonzo as some kind of penalty?? (Gimme a break!)

Why is it that when one of these despicable, corrupt bastards violates a public trust and is complicit in crimes against the Constitution that they treat the loss of that job as some kind of extreme punishment?? The fucker belongs in prison.

[Disturbed]

14. I bet most Rethugs want Gonzo to resign.

They want him gone before the real shit hits the fan ans splatters all over them.

[aquart]

15. Apples and oranges.

You know you can't oust a President for crappy economic policy, unlike a CEO.

[Jack Rabbit]

25. You can't oust a President for crappy economic policy

No, but you can oust him for abuse of power. It doesn't look like we'll have to dig too deep to find the Frat Boy's fingerprints at the scene of the crime nest to the Boy Genius'. A plan to oust all 93 US attorneys at the start of Bush's second term couldn't have been discussed as it was without His Imperial Incompetency knowing about it. He's the one who would either have to reappoint some or appoint new ones. I can't imagine that His Imperial Incompetency -- as imbecilic as he is -- would not have been furious if this came on him as a surprise.

[Jack Rabbit]

13. Dana Rohrabacher is usually a right wing sycophant

If Gonzo has lost Rohrabacher, he doesn't have enough friends to suvive.

Stick a fork in him is right.

[AlCzervik]

16. and no one outside of his districe knows who he is even though he thinks

he's one of the cool surfer kids.

[Jack Rabbit]

20. I don't live in his district (part of Orange Co, I believe)

I know who he is.

He's best known as an obnoxious homophobe.

[AlCzervik]

22. but thats you and besides us here he's not well known. Lungren is my

rep and i bet many people have never heard of him either.

[charlyvi]

21. He's on Bill Maher sometimes.

He also made the MSM with his "dinosaur farts caused global warming" theory.

[Jack Rabbit]

26. I thought I had heard about him saying something dumb recently

I had.

[HRC_in_08]

18. i know Sununu did. who was the second?

thanks.

[charlyvi]

19. Sen. Gordon Smith, I think. n/t

And Norm Coleman is close to joining them.

[niyad]

27. if even "dinosaur farts" dana has this figured out--WOW
