Nothing Improper |
Nothing Improper
By Alberto R. Gonzales
Sunday, April 15, 2007; Page B07
My decision some months ago to privately seek the resignations of a
small number of U.S. attorneys has erupted into a public firestorm.
First and foremost, I appreciate the public service of these fine
lawyers and dedicated professionals, each of whom served his or her
full four-year term as U.S. attorney. I apologize to them, their
families and the thousands of dedicated professionals at the Justice
Department for my role in allowing this matter to spin into an
undignified Washington spectacle.
What began as a well-intentioned management effort to identify where,
among the 93 U.S. attorneys, changes in leadership might benefit the
department, and therefore the American people, has become an
unintended public controversy.
While I accept responsibility for my role in commissioning this
management review process, I want to make some fundamental points
abundantly clear.
I know that I did not -- and would not -- ask for the resignation of
any U.S. attorney for an improper reason. Furthermore, I have no basis
to believe that anyone involved in this process sought the removal of
a U.S. attorney for an improper reason.
Given my convictions on this issue, I testified before Congress in
January and will do so again on Tuesday. I have personally spoken with
many members of Congress over the past several weeks to hear their
concerns about this matter. Additionally, I have instructed all
Justice Department officials to make themselves available for
on-the-record interviews with lawmakers and hearings before Congress,
and I have ordered the release of thousands of pages of internal
documents.
All of these documents and public testimony indicate that the Justice
Department did not seek the removal of any U.S. attorney to interfere
with or improperly influence any case or investigation. Indeed, I am
extremely proud of the department's strong record of vigorous
prosecutions, particularly in the area of public corruption, where
Republicans and Democrats alike have been held accountable for their
crimes.
I have nevertheless asked the Justice Department's Office of
Professional Responsibility to further investigate this matter.
Working with the department's Office of Inspector General, these
nonpartisan professionals will complete their own independent
investigation so that Congress and the American people can be 100
percent assured of what I believe and what the investigation thus far
has shown: that nothing improper occurred.
While I have never sought to deceive Congress or the American people,
I also know that I created confusion with some of my recent statements
about my role in this matter. To be clear: I directed my then-deputy
chief of staff, Kyle Sampson, to initiate this process; fully knew
that it was occurring; and approved the final recommendations. Sampson
periodically updated me on the review. As I recall, his updates were
brief, relatively few in number and focused primarily on the review
process.
During those conversations, to my knowledge, I did not make decisions
about who should or should not be asked to resign.
I am committed to explaining my role in this process and will do so
Tuesday when I testify before Congress.
I am also committed to correcting any management missteps that
occurred during this process. In recent weeks I have met with more
than 70 U.S. attorneys around the country to hear their concerns and
discuss ways to improve communication and coordination between their
offices and the Justice Department.
These discussions have been frank, and good ideas are coming out,
including ways to ensure that every U.S. attorney can know whether his
or her performance is at the level expected by the president and the
attorney general. Additionally, I have asked for recommendations on
formal and informal steps that we can take to improve all forms of
dialogue between the main Justice Department and U.S. attorneys
nationwide.
I am also telling our 93 U.S. attorneys that I look forward to working
with them to pursue the great goals of our department in the weeks and
months to come. During the past two years, we have made great strides
in securing our country from terrorism, protecting our neighborhoods
from gangs and drugs, shielding our children from predators and
pedophiles, and protecting the public trust by prosecuting public
corruption. As I have stressed repeatedly to our U.S. attorneys and
others within the department, recent events will not and must not
deter us from our important mission.
In part because of my own experience, I know the real strength of
America. It lies in our Constitution, our people and our collective
unyielding commitment to equal opportunity, equal justice, common
decency and fairness. With this same commitment in my mind, I very
much look forward to answering Congress's questions about this matter
on Tuesday.

What did you expect him to say? That he broke the law? That he really fucked
up? That he lied? That he took the shortcut AG's are not supposed to take?
That yes, he did act as personal counsel to the president after he was sworn
in as AG? That his staff was incompetent? That he did and said thing he
later denied? That he and his staff were not really "loyal buhsies?"
Or, that the job was to much for him, he was over his head and he could not
handle all the responsibilities?

Personally, I believe that 9/11 should have taught us the lesson that we
can't let these countries simmer endlessly in disillusionment without
doing something about it because people become susceptible to delusional
ideas and delusional actions. Iraq, in my view, is but the first of many
efforts, certainly not all military, to remake the very face of the
world as constitutional representative democracy.

The problem is there's no evidence for that. What you got is just a
little very reasonable clear the decks to try to finish the Bush
administration building up. It also means that any Democrat taking over
would have to fire these new Attorneys Eight before their four year
terms expired. Meanwhile, you don't care about clear obstruction of
justice by Reno under the watchful eye of Clinton when she stopped the
Smaltz investigation into Clinton taking bribes from Tyson Foods.

No, they had not.
They were all named when Bush took over six plus years ago, doff.

sworn
in as AG? That his staff was incompetent? That he did and said thing

later denied? That he and his staff were not really "loyal buhsies?"
What?
You're out of touch as well. Are you playing dumb?
Just answer the question.
The question was "what?"
What the ***** is that supposed to mean?
What don't you understand? That he acted as personal counsel to the
President after he was sworn in as AG? That he did and said things that he
later denied? That he and his staff are "loyal bushies"?
What don't you understand?
Prove that.

I'll say it outright: obstruction of justice.
The problem is there's no evidence for that.
There is a HUGE amount of evidence for that.
Sheesh you're fucking stupid.

Explain what law he supposedly broke.
Obstruction of justice.
By removing eight attorneys out of 93 after six years?
Actually more than 8 attorneys were fired in that six years - all 93 were
fired initially, then there were more before those 8. At any rate - it
isn't the number of attorneys removed, but WHY they were removed that's at
issue.
That he lied?
What was the lie?
There has been more than one lie.
-He has said that he wasn't 'in the loop' with regard to the vetting process
for the attorney purge - and he was
-He said that attorneys were fired for 'performance based reasons' - and
they weren't.
There's more.
That yes, he did act as personal counsel to the president after he was
sworn
in as AG? That his staff was incompetent? That he did and said thing he
later denied? That he and his staff were not really "loyal buhsies?"
What?
What do you mean "what"? What don't you understand?

Nothing Improper
By Alberto R. Gonzales
Sunday, April 15, 2007; Page B07
@NOSPAMcharter.net
What did you expect him to say? That he broke the law?
Explain what law he supposedly broke.
That he really fucked
up?
By removing eight attorneys out of 93 after six years? It seems like a
review was in order and finding only eight that could use a shake up
amazing.
That he lied?
What was the lie?
That he took the shortcut AG's are not supposed to take?
What are you talking about?
That yes, he did act as personal counsel to the president after he
was sworn in as AG? That his staff was incompetent? That he did and
said thing he later denied? That he and his staff were not really
"loyal buhsies?"
What?
Or, that the job was to much for him, he was over his head and he
could not handle all the responsibilities?
It sounds like he's doing fine and that really agitates partisans like
you.
Tuesday, Cspan and CNN...Gonzales testifies.....
Stay tuned!
Then Sampson, then Monica II, maybe Iglesias, etc, etc, etc
