    Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., said he's concerned like others in his party that the resolution, sponsored by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and up for a test vote later in the day, was a Democratic effort to embarrass Bush and push Gonzales to resign.

    But Specter has long said that Gonzales has exercised poor leadership on a host of issues, from the firings of eight federal prosecutors to the Justice Department's handling of wiretapping authority under the USA Patriot Act.

      So what does specter suggest; that democrats do nothing about anything so they aren't perceived to be 'political?' Absolute nonsense, considering only a complete dolt wouldn't see that gonzales has no business being the Attorney General. Who cares if it's seen as 'partisan?' Nothing democrats can do about the idiots who try to deflect from the point. They just need to do their jobs and ignore the real partisan BS; coming from CONS.

        What a wormy little torture-monger he is...

        The Japanese in WWII used to insert a glass tube up a prisoner's penis and if he didn't talk the would shatter it and the guy would have to rip off his own penis to "survive." We hung a lot of Japanese for that kind of thing.

        THAT'S THE KIND OF TORTURE GONZALES AND BUSH WANT FOR AMERICANS!!!
