Quote »Former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales repeatedly violated federal secrecy rules by mishandling documents containing "zealously protected" secrets about government's warrantless wiretapping program, then lied to investigators to cover up his actions, [iJustice Department investigators reported Tuesday.[/quote] (emphasis mine)

Actually, it's dated 9/2/08 and presents new information on the issue. Another reason for change.

I'm confused. Bush isn't running. Did Obama have something to do with Gonzales?

And he was prosecuted and convicted(plead guilty actually) to a crime...so your saying that Gonzalez should have the same thing happen to him?

@96 a couple points1) no hes not, but the party that saw him as a fit candidate to nominate and then renominate is. Its still about Bush's judgment as long as the republican party supports him

2)The sitting president is a member of your party and you have him speak at your convention before the networks start broadcasting live...wow your so embarrassed by your last candidate your trying to hide him why should we expect any better this time?

3)Bush is still in charge, hes a very relevant politician in this country. This isn't the election forum its the political forum. I'm sorry you don't like him/are embarrassed, maybe the people who voted for him should all sign a really big apology card to everyone else in the world who didn't if that is the case.

this concept that Bush is irrelevant is absurd. The republican party insisted Clinton was relevant during the gore campaign...the guy your running voted with him 95% of the time...don't make me break out the hug picture again

Doesn't wash, sky.

You smear Bush with Gonzales, then try to smear McCain with Bush.When I question that, you smear the entire Republican Party with Bush, because Bush hired Gonzales.

That's simply BDS (Bush Derangement Syndrome).

If your point is that you have no respect for Republicans because of what Gonzales did, so be it. It's hard to argue with that logic. Otherwise your post makes no sense.

I'm washing by implying that the people who fought to elect a man should be responsible for what he does?

I don't think so and this continued argument that any comparison to Bush is invalid and irrelevant is just lame.

^ So this "Politics" forum is limited to only those people/issues involved in the 2008 United States Presidential election?

A very valid point. All political subjects are valid in here, including the politics of any foreign country, or historical political discussions, or anything similar.

Sorry, I don't mind at all if someone wants to bash Bush.

I'm just more interested in the NEXT President at this point. Neither McCain nor Palin nor Obama nor Biden have anything to do with Bush and Gonzales.

And since they don't, I'll leave this thread to those who like to bash Bush instead.
