Where's Alberto Gonzales?

There's a new game that can be played in DC, and it's called "Where In The World Is Alberto Gonzales." On Wednesday he published an op-ed in The LA Times on the very subject he managed to malign more than support: equality. The Washington Post's, Al Kamen, looks into other activities Gonzales - aka Fredo - has taken part in since he left the Justice Department almost a year ago.

First he popped up at Friday night's baseball game between the Nats and the O's. Next thing you know, he's in the Los Angeles Times on Wednesday as an op-ed columnist.

So, is this the beginning of an Alberto R. Gonzales re-emergence in public, 10 months after he resigned from a somewhat-less-than-successful 2 1/2 -year tenure as attorney general? Is there a job announcement coming?

The only job that he could qualify for is that of a politician. And in Texas, he would probably get elected. However, with his memory fading due to the bulge in his back pocket where his wallet is he has nothing to worry about. The right wing nuts will find him a good 7 figure job so that he can live in the style that he is accoustomed(sp?)

Wow, I'm surprised he was able to author an op-ed piece in light of his mental problems, I seem to recall he had a severe case of selective amnesia. This administration has made a mockery of the rule of law, as Alberto's tenure as Attorney General certainly attests to. He belongs in jail.

I have a job suggestion: Latrine orderly in the prison he's sent to. I know...it's too good for him, but it's a job someone has to do.

The Democratic Party in the Congress is so spineless - it will let anyone get away with anything. I agree that Nancy Pelosi did not want the distraction of the Impeachment Brigade to distract her agenda but to cave in like a pack of cards is cowardice - to let people like Gonzo, GWB and DC get away all the time is UNPATRIOTIC too.

We DO know he's not where he belongs - in prison, along with most of Dubya's cronies.

Maybe he's in the witness protection program - like Vicki Isenman (was that her name?).

Did they write "somewhat-less-than-successful", the Laker's run to the playoffs was"somewhat-less-than-successful" ARG's 21/2 years as theAG was criminal at it's best , then he gets up and play dumb in front of the world...Gitmo would be to good for the whole gangs of thugs and sycophant.

He is going to run the collection for the Bush Library in Texas. They are building on the old Branch Davidian compound and there will be a wing devoted to the deep thoughts of the President -- all in fingerpaint

I project Gonzo will be popping up on Faux news any day now. They tend to take in those republicans whose lives were tied to someone before like Bush.....Just look at the friends there for him Rove will be besest buds again! Yep my psychic powers tell me he's going to be on Faux as the consulting legal advisor!

"a somewhat-less-than-successful 2 1/2 -year tenure as attorney general?..."

This was found in the dictionary as the definition of the word "understatement".
