I don't get it. Such a short statement? Did he forget his reasons for resigning? Did he forget to say he wanted to spend more time with his family? Did he forget he has a family?
What you want in an Attorney General is a pit bull who will fight to the death in defense of the Constitution. What we have had for the last sorry ass years was a Labrador retriever hired to fetch for the president. And one who was too damned dumb to swim at that.
The notion that a radical is one who hates his country is naive and usually idiotic. He is, more likely, one who loves his country more than the rest of us, and is thus more disturbed than the rest of us when he sees it debauched. He is not a bad citizen turning to crime; he is a good citizen driven to despair.
Reverend G R Gleig, survived the First Anglo-Afghan War to write in 1843:
...a war begun for no wise purpose, carried on with a strange mixture of rashness and timidity, brought to a close after suffering and disaster, without much glory attached either to the government which directed, or the great body of troops which waged it. Not one benefit, political or military, has Britain acquired with this war. Our eventual evacuation of the country resembled the retreat of an army defeated.

ReplyDeleteOh, No! Our children will no longer be protected from Internet predators!
ReplyDeleteThat was exactly what I expected, short, full of BS and a mad dash before any questions could be asked.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't matter who is appointed next, unless of course, Bush is running out of puppets.
Worst. AG. Ever.
