May 17, 2007, 7:48 p.m.Great, one of the promotors for the Iraqi war and corrupt crony of Bush will resign. It's a time for celebration.
Now Gonzales, the despicable perverter of our constitution should be next. His smirk smile is enough on the daily media outlets. He should retire to hades and serve Satan. Excuse me, he already serves Satan, Bush.
This war is a conservative hawk war that will come to conclusion if the American public continues to speak out. After Gonzo Bush should be the next target for Americas wrath. The illiterate nationalistic hawks are losing and the tide is now flowing in the proper direction.

May 17, 2007, 8:05 p.m.It was not "we" who were able to force this guy out.
It was the world leaders outside the U.S.
"We" have not yet been able to oust anyone favored by Bush no matter how foolish, arrogant, wrong, corrupt, crooked.
This guy may well believe he acted correctly and for the best.
But, as with most of the administration, he has no concept of how to behave; no idea that the rules apply to him.

May 17, 2007, 9:37 p.m.Wonder where "libssuck" is ? It is starting to unravel. Gonzales is next. Then maybe Karl Rove {Elmer Fudds evil Twin} will feel the heat.

May 17, 2007, 9:38 p.m.You should all be outraged that the WORLD BANK exists as well, along with the for profit FEDERAL RESEVE, IMF; all created by bankers so that bankers can reap even bigger profits by financial enslavement of the masses.

May 17, 2007, 11:02 p.m.What I want to know is why his overpaid slvt girlfriend gets to keep *her* loot and her job. Isn't she at least as sleazy for accepting huge pay hikes from her filthy weasel of a boyfriend?
