Dems seek no-confidence vote on Gonzales
New calls for resignation follow word of Ashcroft hospital
confrontation
Updated: 11 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - Two Senate Democrats said Thursday they will seek a
no-confidence vote on Attorney General Alberto Gonzales over
accusations that he carried out President Bush's political agenda at
the expense of the Justice Department's independence.
Sens. Chuck Schumer of New York and Dianne Feinstein of California,
who have led the investigation into the conduct of White House
officials and Gonzales, said the attorney general has become too
weakened to run the department.
'It seems the only person who has confidence in the attorney general
is President Bush,' Schumer told reporters. 'The president long ago
should have asked the attorney general to step down' . . ."
" . . .Five Republican senators have called outright for Gonzales'
resignation, including Sen. Norm Coleman, R-Minn., who added his voice
Thursday. Several other Republicans have suggested that Gonzales
consider stepping down.
One of the latter group, Sen. Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, has left
no doubt that he thinks Gonzales should leave. But he told The
Associated Press that he wanted to see Schumer's resolution before
saying he would vote for it . . ." - http://tinyurl.com/26aopp

It begs to question if that smirking chimp Bush can still hear those
"voices" in that warped skull of his?
" . . . I hear the voices, and I read the front page, and I know the
speculation. But I'm the decider, and I decide what is best. And
what's best is for Don Rumsfeld to remain as the secretary of
defense." --- George W. Bush, Washington, DC April 18, 2006
