Alberto Gonzales Defense Fund Begins

Supporters of former attorney general Alberto R. Gonzales have created a trust fund to help pay for his legal expenses, which are mounting in the face of an ongoing Justice Department investigation into whether Gonzales committed perjury or improperly tampered with a congressional witness.

The establishment of a legal defense fund for the nation's former chief law enforcement officer underscores the potential peril confronting Gonzales, who is one of a handful of attorneys general to face potential criminal charges for actions taken in office.

Just out of curiosity, how is this fund set up for tax purposes? It cannot be a charity since it is for the benefit of a specific person. Are the proper gift tax returns being filed by thoses making large donations to the fund? Does Mr. Gonzales pay tax on amounts spent on his behalf? If not, why not?

Boy those Republicans really take care of their own, don't they? What a nice 'thanks for perverting the justice system on our behalf' gift.

Now I know why Republicans fight so hard to prevent brain damaged poor children from getting health care.

They are spending all their money keeping their cronies out of jail.

Republicans.
A culture of corruption, cronyism, criminality, incompetence and immorality.

Is it legal to send a bag of shit through mail? I want to contribute.

Watergate really got interesting when they busted Attorney General John Mitchell. Then the shit REALLY hit the fan. I don't see the same thing happening here, but it's nice to dream. Gonzo is much worse than Mitchell and Dumbya is much worse than Tricky Dick. And once again it was the people in the United States that paid the price.

Will he make as much as scooter??

[ZHarris]

I like how the contributors, who are limited by law to how much they can contribute to the campaigns of BushCo, can make unlimited contributions for the defense of the crimes they committed while they served.

I betcha Gonzales contributions will get you more than a night in the Lincoln bedroom.

Since Republicans insist that it's not torture and that it's a successful interrogation technique, let's start a fund to water board Gonzales!

[wsblake]

I hope for his sake his lawyer doesn't also believe that the US Constitution is just an oudated,quaint useless piece of paper.

I have a few ideas I'd like to "contribute"
