Congratulations Democrats?

Question

Are you proud now that you have forced a fourth high ranking Republican from office by constantly hounding and investigating, with zero proof of wrong doing, or any proof of any law being broken?

Gonzales, whom Bush once considered for appointment to the Supreme Court, is the fourth top-ranking administration official to leave since November 2006, following Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, who had a high-ranking Pentagon job before going to the World Bank as its president, and top political and policy adviser Karl Rove.

Congratulations. You must be so proud. Which honest, hard-working servant of this country will you go after next?

By the way, did libs not notice that is parents were migrant farmworkers? You would have thought he would have gotten a free pass no matter what he did.

Answer 1

No wonder this congress has such LOW ratings,they spend all their time investigating non-crimes,having witch hunts,trying to pass bills the public don't want,disrespecting our troops,trying to make deals with foeiegn countries ( Pelosi )( state dept job,not theirs ) and going on vacation.

Oh,I forgot to mention,getting caught with their hands in the cookie jar,right,Mr. "Cool Cash Jefferson ".

Answer 2

He was held to account for potential wrongdoing, and when questioned he was dishonest and evasive, you reap what you sow. The larger picture could be that the Senate is getting closer to many details of wrongdoing or crimes perpetrated by the Bush administration and this may well be what is forcing the hastened exodus of so may high level people from the Bush/ Cheney administration. I sense that something very significant will occur when the Senate goes back into session in September. In politics as in business, timing is everything, so I guess we will see what the near future brings.

Answer 3

let see
who do we go after next ?

How about anyone else that tries to manipulate justice?

Mr. Bush ?
Mr Cheney?

Are you proud of what the republican party did when they went after Clinton?
I bet you see the two as totally different.

So do we Clinton was outted by the Republicans for a BJ
and to the shame of the country
Republicans opened their mouths on a matter that was personal and involved the oral sex discussion in every classroom in America.
Republican are the blame for that NOT CLINTON.

It used to be folks had enough decency to overlook sexual pecadillos of other adults, but when you guys couldn't find ANYTHING ELSE---well the rest is history and in the history books, BECAUSE OF REPUBLICAN OVER ZEALOUSNESS

Answer 4

Personally, I think the congratulations belong to Mr. Ashcroft. I never thought much of Mr.Ashcroft when he represented me when I lived in Missouri...but he has earned my respect.

Even as he lay in a hospital bed hounded by Gonzales and others to support an action, which he knew to be contrary to the laws of the United States...he held firm to his convictions and did his country a great honor and service.

So pass these congratulations on to an honorable American, Mr. John Ashcroft. Indeed the American Eagle is soaring today.

Answer 5

The committee that investigates these things is made up of Republicans and Democrats, not just Democrats. There must have been SOME reason they felt he needed to be investigated. And as far as I am concerned, no one should get a free pass to break a law.

Answer 6

Sarcasm well noted. However if he gave no reason to suspect wrong doing the Congress, including some Republicans, would not have investigated him. It is never something to be proud of when someone in our government is corrupt and decides to leave before he embarrasses himself, the Administration, and the country any further. No Democrats are not proud. We just wish it was not necessary to have to investigate the corruption of the Bush Administration.

I know you giggled like a tickled little school girl when Clinton was impeached, although not found guilty of anything, and when we spent millions of dollars and countless hours investigating the private life of Mr. Bush's predecessor. But we are not like that. We are disheartended that it became necessary for all of those people in the Bush Administration to find it necessary to resign. Colin Powell was the first of the bunch to go and then, slowly but surely, more and more of them have seen the writing on the wall. Too bad, they had the potential to hitch a ride on a rising star but that rising star was just a meteor that is crashing to earth.

Answer 7

The fact that "Bush once considered (Gonzales) for appointment to the Supreme Court..." speaks volumes about this administration's lack of concern over accountability or honesty. Gonzo is just one more dishonest hack who had to go. America wins a small victory, Bush loses a little hack.

Answer 8

All he had to do was be honest. Unfortunately, had he been so, VP Dick and President Bush would have been implicated.

I admire him for taking one for the team. Too bad so many have had to do so for this inept administration. Al seemed to be an intelligent guy but in way over his head politically. But that is a big part of the job.

Answer 9

Is it our fault that he doesn't have the guts to stand up to criticism? Face it, he left because he couldn't take the heat of what is about to be made public. He is a liar and everyone knows it. Who gives a damn who his parents were? That doesn't make him special. Oh yeah, here we go. Lets bring up Clinton's administration when we can't justify our own party. Damn babies.

Answer 10

Documents have shown the Gonzales has lied to Congress, last time I checked, lying is a form of wrong doing, or is lying OK when you're a Republican?

Answer 11

Zero proof of wrongdoing? Are you serious? Wow, perjury certainly rang the Republican bells when Clinton lied. Now perjury isn't so serious when it's a Republican lying to Congress? Congratulations to you for still finding a way to drink the koolaid. You want to keep an Attorney General who lies to Congress? What sort of American are you then? Is partisanship more important to you than the truth? I'm not even a Democrat and I can see what disgrace this fool brought on the office of Attorney General. I prefer that criminals do not run our country, especially when it comes to justice.
